Do you happen to know the character Bruenor Battlehammer from before it was included in a Magic set? Because it sounds like you grasping for a reason to defend the name. Big Nose George comparison makes sense if Bruenor Battlehammer is also not his real name. Is it just a nickname he has been...

Fan! <3 Can’t wait for the cube blog. And the repeated “This is going to be great in the blue cube” on a monthly basis from Brad :P

A few thoughts I was pretty cold on Modern Horizons 1 but I am starting to warm up to the whole branch. This set is dripping with flavor. The blue art on the eternalize token from the mono white card Timeless Dragon because lazotep makes the creature blue. Also Cabal Coffers which is key to...

So you don’t feel cringe when they have written into their story a guy who has a last name that suits his abilities perfectly? Like Jon big Nose or Adele Flower (guy with a large nose and a woman who is into herbology)

I mean.. When it’s scripted, it’s on purpose and not random like your baker-butcher example.

That’s pretty poor writing :) Unless there is a really good story that gave him that name like the Indians used to name their people or Daenerys Stormborn from GoT.

Regarding planeswalkers on in D&D: (It’s a link. You can click on it to read it all.) They had an opportunity here to create a Magic set without walkers but they wanted to ‘upgrade’ a few characters from legendary creatures to planeswalkers just because they thought it would be cool.

I expect this to be a set with tons of cool references and I’m not going to get a single one of them.

I’m more of a 70-30 on burn spells hitting players/not hitting players.

Yeah that’s such a cool ‘mechanic’ that I think makes tons of sense in a limited environment because it makes sure that the tournament winner hasn’t been decided too early on. Another thing I like about SDD is the fact that the players will get two brief pauses from playing. Whenever everyone...

I support Thousand-Year Storm and nothing else.

The upside I can see in the new SDD idea is the excitement players will feel several times each tournament. First with the random low power cards and then again when they unlock better and better cards. Kind of like when you defeat a boss in Slay the Spire and get one rare card and a boss relic...

Not yet. We are starting with this one: https://riptidelab.com/forum/threads/cube-idea-new-sealed-pool-after-each-loss.3395/ The reason why we start with that one is because I am a coward and fear the upcoming job of marking all cards after they have been seperated into 3 different power...

That’s one ugly Thanos.

I wanted to create a dynamic format where the decks change over time. How does this format seperate itself from normal cube drafting? 1. Decks change over time and become more and more powerful. You might even switch colors. 2. There is no way of figuring out who wins the tournament right away...

Urza's Saga is going to be one of those hyper expensive cards because everyone can see a good use for them.

I actually think that is very responsible as a cube owner! Thumbs up

I thought about that one but disqualified it for having an entirely different ability where you cannot put a card on the graveyard whenever you want. And it is also forced.

And before OG Ravnica did it first, Judgment and Champions of Kamigawa did it first Battlefield Scrounger Reito Lantern
