Neither card you linked seems overpowered at 1-mana, but neither excites me either. Some of the other hybrids listed appear a little overwhelming for a powered cube. If you're willing to change costs I may take a look at your UG and BW slots, for example.

Hey, thanks for the comment. Full disclosure: I haven't played it yet. That said, I'm a little surprised Glimpse Drafting took so long to be formally named. One of my first ever cube drafts had us sitting in an apartment with 4 people, so we did 6 packs of "take-1 burn-1" to see the whole...

Happy Holidays! See you in 2016 (and the rest of this week)!

These are some good points. I do wonder if there are some lessons we can't port from Pauper. The effects are much less swingy, and one of the most prominent decks is a tempo deck that can get ahead then hold up Mana Leak / Counterspell / Faeries all game. I'm not sure what the lesson is though.

How conditional is Painful Truths?

Yeah, I only see 2-3 cards in this list that I don't run. No utility lands is also a difference, but this looks like a usable gauntlet list. Thanks!

I am all for running the cards that place minor deckbuilding / drafting incentives.

I don't view WOTC as the ogre here, but I think part of their job is community management. I haven't followed the details of this much (read: at all), but I assume they are within their rights to whatever their reactions are. However, they can do themselves further financial damage by alienating...

Painful Truths

Sower for me.

Yeah, but the name "Grid Drafting" is pretty dope, right? :)

Integrated Cloudshift say whaaaa.

Yeah, I'm sorry, not anything can be done about that. The grids are based on screenshots (of the RL forums), and the card images are from the database they use, so there is some mismatch. Sorry submarine!

If you read Rosewater talk about Ravnica design, he actually talks about letting there be a slower and faster way to play each color pairing. I would try to keep this in mind when designing.

Define worse. Color commitments and interactability are cool. Don't let everyone poo-poo Venser.

Should note: any program set up for drafting exists in a very "grey" area. There's a reason CT doesn't do interactive Grid Drafting. Either way, I like the idea of expanding what it means to draft.

I liked it. Your list of critiques felt pretty spot on. Rylo killing Han felt very similar to Darth killing Obi Wan. Both stood there and took it while an emerging Jedi watched on. The new bot felt good. The film started quite well, but as you say, ended routinely. Hopefully they can take...

I will not stand for this ad homonym attack.

I thought you were saying, why are we doing 3 packs of 15 when we could do something else entirely?
