Hey, me too! I definitely had an issue in like 2015 where I was trying to make my power band as flat as possible, really amped up on synergistic picks. But the fact of the matter was that my drafters didn't share my enthusiasm for P1P1-ing between two equivalently-strong answers, or threats they...

big ups to my homie Rishkar. love that dude

I don't like Llanowar Mentor at probably most power levels. It's really clunky and most of the spellshapers are either not worth using or become every-turn plans (also dull). Some early R/G discard outlets not mentioned yet: (higher-power first, then lower-power. not a precisely sorted list)...

extremely good card is obviously extremely good, but I really like it for Cube, too. Splash hate on problem lands, enchantments, etc. while reducing non-games due to screw. I don't see any of us cutting Abrupt Decay, but if you're still playing Putrefy this seems like it does more for your format.

One cool thing about the lich is you can't deck yourself, because it replaces the draw you'd lose to. TRUE IMMORTALITY

Hi Ravnic! I drafted yours again. P1P1 I'm torn between Worn Powerstone (the strongest card?) and Mystical Tutor (I sure do love toolboxes!). I go M-Tutor into Bolt, Azorius Signet, and P1P4 I see Rise From the Tides. Aha! I think. Spells-matter, maybe jeskai control. An early 3rd splash into...

Fascinating. I'd love to see pictures.

No obvious dud mechanics, which is nice. RIP Cipher. Graveyard-scry is something I've thought about doing with customs for a while, and I think it'll play really well. Jump-start sounds positively bonkers. A fixed version of Epic?

I wrote out a quick draft play-by-play for you. Hope it's helpful! I started with a Lightning Bolt and was hoping to end up in something aggressive. As I looked at the next pack and saw bouncelands, midrange beef, and combo shit, I decided Bolt is probably better as premium removal. I really...

I am, yeah, but it's not really a 1-card thing. sort of 'safe storm'.

yeah lmao I can't believe I posted that. pretty embarassing. same deal but you can exile one card from your hand to Thoughtseize. e: running this VVV

^^^ Here's what I think I'm gonna run:

for 1-card archetypes I run Cataclysm, Pod/CoCo ('cheating', 2 copies each), Kiki-Jiki, Jeskai Ascendancy, and Lab Man. Big ups to all those guys.

Hi! I'm trying to add another custom Eldrazi to my cube, and I was wondering if anyone here had a fun design tucked away in a file somewhere. Ideally it would want black mana. Here's what I came up with initially: 2B 2/2 with 'Exile ~ from your hand: Thoughtseize (as a sorcery)' 1BB 4/2...

Just added it, don't know yet. Sorry I can't be more helpful! The slot used to be Falkenrath Aristocrat, a real all-star of a card. Trying to run a bunch of dragons for stuff like Crux of Fate / 3 mana Sarkhan. I like that Kolaghan can swing for hasty flying damage too, and the go-wide support...

I really like Goblin Dark-Dwellers, for what it's worth. You can do some great stuff with it in Show and Tell decks (Show in the gobbo, flashback Show, put in your bigger threat), it's a solid beater for Rx control decks, which I push in my environment, and it competes with Torrential Gearhulk...

it's brutal imo, stronger than Cryptic. I noticed you're not running Fact or Fiction, which - if you're amenable to it - comes with a well-established pedigree. Plus, it's fun to resolve. There's also Confirm Suspicions, but I've never played with it and can't speak to its power level.

I drafted Pete's Good Games Cube - twice - and got some fun decklists. This first one started with P1P1 E-Wit into P1P2 Glare of Subdual, and then I just went ham on tokens and enchantment synergy. www.cubetutor.com/cubedeck/955991[/url]"] Ones 1 Deathrite Shaman 1 Enlightened Tutor Twos 1...

black bordered Perfect Fits, dog Here's my Fight Club contest: Daretti, Scrap Savant Sarkhan, Fireblood I have a few pieces of artifact top-end but recently cut Goblin Welder for being too situational. I run 11 dragons in a 450, and have leaned into the emotional aspect of Cube when it...

Easy Judgment for me. It's the more versatile spell, and since Madness is already a reward for cute deckbuilding, I like the card with the higher ceiling on said cute reward.
