    I don’t run non-unique customs. In other words: If I include a custom card, the card has to be absolutely amazing and do something no other Magic card does. The reason is my cube already has custom rules which greatly exceeds the burden on the players than a custom card would. I do run normal...

    What the Deck is now live with Self-Discard vs. Self-Sacrifice What the Deck is often a good time to find inspiration for some wacky cube-themes or mini themes in your cube. Or sometimes even a rare but cool interaction between two or three cards.

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    That is not how Wizards see it. And I believe if got some experience, you would also not see it this way. Having a black frame on a land that doesn’t add black mana will lead to many, many, many situations where someone will tap it for {B}. Some of those times a player will notice. When the...

    Cut! It’s done! I feel the same way but I wish there was a 1 mana looter.

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    The color of the frame of lands are there to help your opponent cipher which colors of mana you have access to. Cards like Prismatic Vista and City of Brass have multicolored frames because you have access to all colors. Cards like Evolving Wilds and Terramorphic Expanse do not because they do...

    I think so, yes. And won’t you miss the cycling? Are you running any reanimator? (I have checked out one of your blogs but I know you have several)

    Late October is what we know so far. The last few years we’ve had 3,5 months between sets. This time there is going to be 2.

    With every new set Wizards create for us to draft, fixing is weak. Always. When we compare it to Legacy and Vintage. The question is why Wizards keep creating this kind of experience if they could toggle between good fixing every fifth set and weak fixing four out of five sets. I also like it...

    What’s that sound? Can you guys hear it? It’s the sound of the next set’s spoiler season hovering closer and closer.

    Yeah @ravnic let’s go with Jack-o’-Lantern! It could even go into a self-mill deck itself.

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    @ravnic I don’t like the play pattern with Claws. Every turn the same thing happens: “I tap Claws. Exile a card from you graveyard.” Opponent goes into the think tank. Opponent exiles a card. It’s often not important what gets exiled but people tend to take some time thinking either way. And...

    I agree with @TrainmasterGT @Nanonox my man Bolas’s Citadel Have you tested the card? If it ticks all those requirements then I think you should reconsider. There might be other people in your playgroup that also like the card and win-maxing should not always be the goal of a game. Not for...

    I am in the lucky position that I get to put most of the cards I like into my cube. The cube is designed to handle this. However there are some that still can't be added. Build-arounds that require too much of the cube. Like Zoss mentioned Astral Slide is a favorite I can't run. But I like this...

    It's only fair if you cast it once. If you draw a second copy, it's not fair anymore :P Standard was so much fun during when Lorwyn-Alara and Alara-Zendikar.
