Or you could test it and get back to us :) No need to impose your work load onto my shoulders unless you are not capable of completing your own assignment :) Edit: Please notice the smileys :) This means I am not irritated but I just do not have the time to test out if my suggestion would be...

Being aggressive is not = strong position. Not always. Also in multiplayer formats like Commander and these 3-player games there will always be politics and the player who seem ahead will suddenly face two enemies who work together.

I guess it depends on how you build your cube. If the random blowouts are simply based on luck draws then I would not have them. They would feel unfair. If the blowouts are less random and more skill-based with a lot of Miracle support then I would say thumbs up for them. As with many...

I guess like all other reanimator questions it depends on which reanimator cards you use and how fast they can complete their quest of bringing a bomb to the battlefield. And of course it also depends on the general state of the remaining cards in your cube. Example: In a non-powered and slow...

Just came here to quickly mention that Bloodwater can sometimes enable a miracle in the right colors.

Well honestly there’s nothing wrong with a ‘weaker this or that’ as long as your format doesn’t stomp on the card. There’s a format for every card ;)

That’s exactly what I use him for. He is, like Grisel, quite game-ending but he’s far more interesting because tutoring makes for better cube experiences (if you ask me) and he doesn’t have lifelink so he doesn’t protect you as well as Grisel.

It's like a poor, poor(!) man's Deathrite Shaman

My guess for Rivals of Ixalan: Our characters will find Orazca, the City of Gold. It will be a meld card where you need four cards to assemble the transform land. The backside of the enlarged land will create a token artifact named Immortal Sun which will be super strong and will easily win you...

Either counter or outrace as you mention. Or discard. Or force shuffle.

I would say you are pretty well-prepared for the outcome with that analysis and you seem to know your cube really, really well! I like the card but it kinda has to go into Azorius, Selesnya, Orzhov or any of the Shards/Khans that combine white with either blue or black and that seems like a...

There are several ways to build around this card but it's one of those cards that you can draft, pick up some more support cards for during the draft, hope to be able to build around it and still end on excluding it to the sideboard because you didn't get enough support cards. It's the ultimate...

Sorry for not card-tagging. (EDIT: I just saw you wanted 1-drops. You can ignore all of the following. My bad!) I would consider: Angel of Invention Angel of Sanctions Glory-Bound Initiate Cast Out Fumigate New art for: Aven Mindcensor Wrath of God And one of my favorit build-around cards...

For me black discard is in my cube for two reasons: 1. It's great support if you're doing something cheesy like reanimator. 2. Giving black something unique. I run premium discard effects but at a low density.

There are some really great ideas here! King of the Hill with Supplement Deck Building, Gold Mine, Rocket League, eating food.. Suggestion for Gold Mine: Maybe let the Coins become Treasure tokens for cool visual effect and the players actually gain access to an in-game reward in the form of...

I am constantly considering cutting Needle. I always keep it in because I have some artifact support. Trinket Mage among others however I wouldn't want to add 1 converted mana cost to it. Are you heavy on the artifact theme?

That sounds perfect! Do not want degenerate, do not want game-breaking. However having the ability to sometimes shine and turn games around with a decent floor sounds attractive. Thank you guys.

Thank you for your input. I guess my question was not very well formulated but you answered it perfectly still. Lake has always been a swing-or-miss card that most often is on the broken side of the scale. Same goes for Necro. And both Messenger and Obliterator is far beyond fair in the right...

Wait! Sorry for interruption the vivid Freebooter-discussion but I have a quick question. Does this work for anyone?

I agree! Interesting. I do the same with my cube (maybe not as much as you do?) but I have also cut most colorless ramp from the cube in order to make ramping a 'almost only green thing'. I am going to take a look at your blog if you don't mind :)
