Witch doctor: Interesting. I'm not sure how good hosing draw spells and sometimes dealing 2 is, but on a looter it should be fine. Douse the Flames: This card I like. Searing Blaze style upsides are awesome, even if UB isn't the best spot for them (Despite what undermine would have you think)...

Here's the 4 mana burn spell that's decent in limited: Lightning Blast Though it hasn't been around for a while. Also I'd like to take this moment: This card's name is not what you think it is

Yeah definitions are going to vary. Skinrender is 10x the removal spell Gideon Jura is in my book, but do you count counterspells? I'm going to count mana leak, but not emerge unscathed. Valorous Stance? Probably. Killing, not bouncing? Hmmm.... 13 in white (Angel of Serenity counts, ya?) 13...

You are not joking about that curve, egh. Makes me nauseous :P

Also more stuff I should probably mention (The above cards are now actually up on mythicspoiler) I like the goblin shortcutter ability this gives, but I want the enchantment to have more punch. Madcap skills is good mostly because it gives +3/+0, not because of the evasion (though the whole...

Am I the only one that actually likes digital art?

Check out my list for some wildfire help. I wrote a primer back in the day, but I've settled on colorless mana rocks over specifically red based ones (Less Fire diamond more Everflowing Chalice) since the human brain is really REALLY bad at identifying which colors a card is, so fire diamond...

Little did I know I'd start a trend :P

Man blue's firebolt sucks.

and thus comes the problem with prowess: it's good in cube, but stupid broken in older formats (See the only white card to ever be taken seriously in vintage since balance). Basically every card with prowess has to be made with the conceit that it's either limited only fodder, or hella strong...

GAH one more! Random commons being previewed here, not up on MythicSpoiler yet: http://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/arcana/magic-origins-sample-decks-2015-06-08 Well holy shit. I love it! Coooooool. He doesn't have haste, but could still be good Interesting take on goblin...

Sewer Nemesis has one big advantage over cards like mortivore and splinterfright: It's WAAAY bigger. Since it doesn't specify creature card and grows on it's own by milling whoever it's pointed at, I've found that its usually about 3-4 points bigger than mortivore would be at the time, even...

Nice! I'm excited. I was looking to add thunderbreak regent because 4/4 fliers for 4 excite me, and push red in a non-hellrider direction (which is nice for variety if nothing else) but this card seems way more enticing. RE: Prowess/Scry/Menace...

He's been great, the single black mana in his cost is super sweet, and the 5th toughness puts him out of reach of 99% of red removal and many creatures far up the curve. The drawing cards ability might not seem super great, but given that it's cube, anything you get back is usually already good...

Opponents city of brass maybe

I'll admit, I lold

Attack + Red spell works too, but good point

I'm not so sure on the confirmation here either, but here's what I feel about the card: 3 mana pingers with summoning sickness are okay, and being slightly worse gelectrode is a decent base. I like that you can flip her by blocking + pinging, but the walker side doesn't really impress me: I...

It does depend highly on the number of creatures you have with incidental counters, so if it is under preforming, maybe swap a few jungle lions to experiment ones, firedrinker satyrs to Strom kirk nobles, etc A lot of the cards like this that I run are custom fwiw, so it might be better to look...

I definitely agree, but whenever this comes up I kinda wonder about the bit magic had in the middle. Like say, Remand. is that a powerful old spell, or a powerful new spell? looking back at the block cards like watchwolf look utterly pedestrian now, but Dark Confidant are there, and Frenzied...
