Sounds like you need more ramp, then, and/or cards to help stall out until you can slam BIG ELDRAZI. I dunno, put Eye of Ugin in the BLB or something.

I mean, if your core design goal is "make the OG Eldrazi fun and cool", and you've got "good" cards that outclass them... those "good" cards are bad in this context and you should scrap them. Or you could just admit to yourself that you do not, in fact, love Eldrazi, and change the name of your...

Silverfur Partisan?

The paradox of Magic: creatures getting better has made the game worse unless you happen to really like midrange.

I've wondered for a while how much "Domain tops out at 6" really matters. None of the Domain effects stand out to me as broken with X=6 instead of X=5 except for maybe Tribal Flames?

Nah, you can just give it "{T}: Add {c}". I think you're mixing up rule 305.6 (which grants the basic land types the ability to tap for the appropriate color) and rule 305.7 (which defines what happens when a land gains a basic land type, which includes the loss of other abilities). Or maybe...

As cool as that would be, that would require Scryfall to expose the tags to API calls, which they currently don't. :( Even if you did have that, you'd run into the fact that Scryfall's set of tags isn't always going to be useful for cubing purposes (unfortunately). For example, let's look at...

Hmm... I'm not entirely sure that I like Harmonic Prodigy here — it pushes the "Wizard" micro-archetype into another color. Not sure if I want that. What if I try a different Wizard build-around? Ooh, look at how that links to so much stuff! That said, there's something to be said for adding...

Weird tinkering time! I'm fiddling with a mono-green cube, and I've hit on fights, fogs, and combat tricks as substitutes for traditional creature removal that feel pretty green (it also means that Hunt the Hunter is on the table, which feels really cute). However, I'm unsure as to how many...

I'm glad the cubing world doesn't have this problem — if an archetype in one of our formats is dumb garbage, we can just rip the whole thing out and be done with it. Meanwhile, WotC has to power-creep themselves because they have a very minimal ability to remove cards from constructed formats...

The funny thing is that Skurry of Gremlins could totally just be a one-off card for the "have a lot of dudes" theme. Energy feeling super gross and parasitic is honestly mostly a side effect of Temur Energy and friends being a thing in Kaladesh standard, where "go all in on Energy" was one of...

As someone who quite literally cannot listen to podcasts due to hearing problems, thank you for the summary! (Stuff on audio is generally not the greatest for accessibility. Also we're on a text forum with multiple users who don't have English as their first language, so...)

This guy is pretty cute: Watchful Radstag And, unlike a lot of the cards in this set, it doesn't clash super hard with Magic in general! ... I'm actually kinda surprised at how put off I am by Fallout's aesthetic. Like, I'm not a big fan of it at the best of times, but there have been...

Please tell me that they just haven't spoiled the Golgari one yet...

Curses, my rustiness at designing cards is my undoing!

It's unintuitive, but reducing the number of dedicated archetype slots can actually increase how many cards are playable in each archetype. Think of it this way: if you took six cards per color (one per archetype) and converted them from dedicated archetype slots to broadly playable cards...
