    General Decks that have 3-0'd your cube

    I really like the idea of a bug ramp deck but this one looks really weird. I feel like it's been a long time since I saw a deck less suited to Lightning Greaves. The Elvish Demistify is also kinda curious but I could see in this day in age how it might be less awful than it used to be, though...

    General Where did you start with cube?

    Sam! I think I've enjoyed your content before! I might be the earliest cuber on these boards I think it was something like around scourge or Mirrodin but it could have easily been closer to dark steel when I first opened up a pack with deranged hermit and basalt monolith in it. I understand...

    I think it's fun for a control deck and it gives ramp decks better control options right? I know how annoying it is to face that sort of card in a deck that is paying mana to make 1 for 1 trades though and it is one of those rare really disheartening spells. What I mean is that it's not just a...

    Make all your white and black removal spells cost 3-4 and see how much fun people have. It'll be a blast I promise. Oh also try to make all your wraths cost 6 or more mana and be sure to make as much of your removal in white permanent based as possible. I'm talking oblivion rings, Banisher...

    Reaver into sinkrender sounds like a great couple of turns. Better if you have a vendetta or disfigure on hand.

    Yeah I really like -x on black PWs. That last guy I made was initially just gonna demonic tutor as an ultimate and then I thought that was too shallow. I still keep that ability in the back of my head (transmute is an all time fave) I've also been a big fan of this idea [-2]: Pay any amount of...

    Well you gotta remember that this isn't blue mana or red mana or white mana or black mana they are allowed to spend, it's only like mutavaults and painlands and green sources they can get the mono green bonus from. It's exciting isn't it?

    I also really like the tapped zombie thing but it's kinda bad for defending. Gurgaz The Lesser {2}{B}{B} Planeswalker - Gurgaz [+1]: Exile target card in a graveyard, put a 2/2 black zombie creature token into play tapped. [-1]: Put a -1/-1 counter on target creature [-5]: Play a card exiled...

    War Mammoth Assault {3}{G} Sorcery If {R/W} was spent to cast War Mammoth Assault, put two 1/1 red and white Soldier creature tokens onto the battlefield. Then put a 3/3 green Elephant creature token onto the battlefield. If no coloured mana other than green was spent to cast War Mammoth...

    GUYS I wanna make a black planeswalker. Something to go along with lily 3 because let me tell you the cupboard is kinda bare and you know folk like eric are even of the mind that she's too strong. My first question is: Is it normal for PWs with creature transformations to be pretty big for...

    {2}{B}{B} Enchantment - Aura Enchant Creature or Planeswalker You control enchanted permanent Some downside probably life related. (probably could cost 5) made something like this on salvation ages ago while trying to make black answers to planeswalkers. Most of them were planeswalker control...

    It's the green six I always wanted and kinda the basis for including green in a control deck. I feel like it's really lame to give it the axe for power level reasons and frankly it's nice to see green get access to the sweet pile of cards thragtusk represents.

    I love this. I think it's early days to be thinking about what elements will support what gameplay, but I'm really glad it's in someone's mind. I guess I'm more excited about seeing how I can broaden gameplay, and I need to look more closely into figuring out how to integrate these things into...

    Yeah it also has a really cute name right. Also try battlescreech and beast attack.

    It can also just win the game from the graveyard. Sorta like confusion. It's a super fogger too and it puts a game winning amount of distributed power into play more than once.

    General Riptidelab mostly-custom cube attempt #1

    We've been asked a couple times about theme and design ideas so I thought I might say something: I like the idea of doing something with this that I would probably not see out of regular wizards products or things I didn't have enough tools to build cubes around. Jason and Anotak really put...

    Oh man where do I start Katona. I think I just decided not to call you a big baby because I like you, and I consider a lot of the things you brought up there a fault finding mission. You're meager attempt at presenting the pros compared to the extensive and rather unswaying nitpicky array of...

    If your aggro decks are very strong, can generate a lot of value (zombie plan, equipment, strong mana sinks) or have a lot of access to multiple colours I don't think thragtusk is backbreaking anymore. I think it's important to have stablizers like thragtusk if you are limiting the availability...

    Gatekeeper of Malakir, Consuming Vapors, Fleshbag Marauder. We can all be glib here. And can any of you remember the last deck you played that was counting on playing the flashback on that dated old gem? Lol, remember we have control here. I think you both are being kinda reactionary. This...
