Ah, gotcha. I don't run any of the cards you listed, so I was coming at it from a different perspective. I like your thinking.

Hmm, isn't leaving 2 cards of choice enough to make this card pretty useless in most situations? I guess it depends on the density of your targets, but normally there are only a couple flashback spells or reanimation targets or Gravecrawlers or whatever that you really want in there. I guess it...

I don't mind Relic being a strong answer. It's still like, never going to be picked sooner than 13th or so. Graveyard hate that you don't maindeck is always going to be in a bad spot in Cube.

Stonecloaker is one of those weird ones where every time I see it I'm like "oh yeah, that card" and then one second later "what exactly does it do again?".

I'd be up for it on another weekend. My girlfriend is hosting her colleagues at our house Saturday for dinner, so it's kind of a no-go for me doing anything else. Hope it fires though!

I really liked Mox Diamond in my list for the Loam / Crucible synergy.

I know you're joking, but it does point to something that should be said. For almost all cards, the on-board body is only part of that card's value. Only with vanilla (or nearly vanilla) creatures does this trade evenly in terms of net resources gained / lost. Probably the most fun removal...

I think removal tends to be a source of tempo advantage (in terms of mana spent) or card advantage (e.g. 2 for 1s). They come at the cost of being situational. There are no wrong questions but there are wrong answers.

If there's interest, I'll make a full write-up on the current prototype design. Here's are a couple cards that may be useful for the discussion: For most horizontal lines, there's some condition to be met to do the bottom side. Here, the green circle means you have to have a Green card in...

A couple thoughts re: exiling. I'm not entirely against it, but I have some complexity concerns. I think for veterans of Magic it's pretty intuitive, but for others less so. It also has weird (bad) interactions with instants / counterspells. I think if there was a mana cost associated with...

People concerned about 2 free draws, would an alteration like this be appealing? - (max once per turn) Draw a card. - (max once per turn) Gain an empty mana crystal (tapped land). Max 10 mana crystals. - Gain a temporary mana (is lost at the start of your turn) - Pay _ mana (2? 4?): Draw a...

The basic structure of the game currently is that you start with a small fixed deck. You play a Best of 5 and Grid Draft between games to add cards to your deck. There are some things that carry over between games, and ways to trash friendly / enemy cards. There would be no land cards...

That would be the case, but I have the stipulation that you can only use the "get an empty mana crystal" action once a turn.

I am attempting to. With forum help of course. :)

This sounds a lot like what Faeria does. In that game, there's an actual board that you can build hex tiles on. These hex tiles provide you a threshold. So you have 1-mana spells that require 5 "blue threshold" (or equivalent) to be cast. Makes for interesting deckbuilding and play constraints.

I had this idea for a resource system, interested in hearing your opinions. Each turn you get 2 actions. Preliminary list of actions: - Draw a card. - Gain an empty mana crystal (tapped land). Max once per turn. Max 10 mana crystals. - Gain a temporary mana (is lost at the start of your...

Hearthstone Players get an additional mana per turn. Max 10 mana. Consequences: Reliable X mana on Turn X. Quick. All cards can be cast with same mana. Magic: Max 1 land per turn. Lands are cards in deck. Consequences: Mana screw / flood. Cool land cards. WOW TCG: (haven't actually...

Netrunner with the starter decks is pretty cool though.
