    I have been thinking the same. My thoughts so far: A cube with the following: Transform Meld Morph Augment Host Mutate Eldrazi In addition I thought about: 0 custom cards 0 custom rules 0 conspiracies 0 planeswalkers Bad removal spells Lots of ramp Auras but no Equipments The cube would not...

    Train Now that all has been revealed. The results are in: Timeless Wisdom was of course Jeskai: https://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/news/timeless-wisdom-2020-04-06 And Arcane Maelstrom was of course the Maelstrom Wanderer colors (even though maelstrom means whirlpool in Norwegian)...

    The ‘put on top’ was always how it was told to us when mutate was first spoiled. The article is describing the situation where MARO plays the game where he and Andrew keep growing their biggest dude into an even bigger dude. How is that possible with mutate? All you get is the highest p/t of a...

    Once Upon a Time there was a Dinosaur and its pet Human for those of you who run go-wide tokens in red Then they were tragically being seperated :( Probably by some greedy hunter who wants to sell the dino to a collector. Sad, sad story. But in the end, and with great efford, they managed...

    Danish (aber ich sprechen ein bisschen deutch.) Yes. Sorry I was exaggerating. It is a Relearn for 2 mana that can do more stuff if your cube is geared towards it. So the question is: Will you gear your cube towards it? I think I can’t find room for much mutation. Maybe a few. Really nice...

    “Listige” means “Sneaky” in my language :) Sea-Dasher Octopus is perfect. An aura with flash that can be a 2/2 for 3 if you want instead. I don’t think Lore Drakkis does anything unless you are running many mutate cards.

    Exactly! Thank you Onde <3 I think I have the cube for it because my players’ card pool changes all the time and their decks, themes and colors change throughout the tournament which makes this card interesting if you ask me. Has anyone found any mutate cards they want in their cube? I think...

    Once again. I just said if those were the options, then it is cool. I didn’t say super, super cool or anything. And I guess I also said it wasn’t random because it isn’t. You should know SOME about your opponent’s deck. You cast it and have the option to choose between protection from the...

    I literally was not nitpicking. I guess you were when you changed ‘random’ to ‘incidentally’? I said if those were the two options, then cool is the right word. Don’t put your nitpicking on me. The big difference between the Swords of X and Y and this new choice protection are exactly that...

    If those are the two options, then cool. There is nothing random about a strategic choice.

    And I love it! (Since we are cubers and therefore do not care if a card is Standard legal or nooooot (Borat))

    The mutate mechanic is a bit weird. The first mutation will probably buff the creature. The second one (if you should have one) will probably not buff the creature but simply feel like a sorcery spell with an “Whenever you mutate, do X” Aura on it. That means mutating a creature several times...

    Well we are getting 1 Standard legal set and 1 Commander set spoiled in 1 week. Normally this would be spoiled over a period of 2 + 1 week(s). Also this might be why I am bias to liking the cards so much. They tricked me!

    I never said it was bad or unfit for Riptide cubes. I love me some Decree of Justice as some of you already know. I said he missed 50 %. The “absolute floor” is not a Tome Raider with flash that triggers Drake Haven since a token is a lot more fragile than an actual card. Blinking it will kill...

    Is it possible to activate it twice in a game to create two 8/8 Krakens? Here is a fair(er) Swords of X and Y I think this is both a bad card (5 mana to get it attached to a creature, same as the Swords) while I also think it will feel horrible to play against. So pass

    So far there are 20 cards I am going to buy from this set! (Including a few mutate cards that will be way less impressive than in actual Ikoria drafting) I’m back at 8/10!

    You are forgetting about 50 % of the card texts. But yes I think this card is fine. It is a modal spell which are often good.

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    Yes. But it is power creep. And I am against this kind of custom cards. But yes you would no be breaking any design restrictions or color pie restrictions. Fair game!
