    I just realized that we skipped over one of the best bounce payoffs in White: Stormfront Riders EDIT: Dust Elemental

    I've had those cards for ages, and Afternoon Delight is purely digital. And @Zoss, that wasn't targeted at you — I was just using you as a jumping-off point. And yeah, you're right — D&D is definitely eating its own tail at this point.

    I don't — my general policy is not to give WotC money for anything.

    Honestly, I think they're entirely playable if the cube is color-light in general. They also signal that you want to flicker or bounce them, since they are very technically untapped duals. I also think you could get a potentially interesting environment out of making available mana not just...

    On a related topic to our tangent, one of my friends recently posted a bit of a rant about how inexpensive it is to branch out into games that aren't D&D over on Twitter. Because D&D is actually on the expensive end of the hobby. Seriously, you have to be going out and buying out-of-print...

    Somehow this actually annoys me more, and I can't articulate why.

    I'll be honest, I'm currently in a 5e game under duress. Stupid not having a persistent group — I want to get back to playing Masks and the like again.

    Spoilers because this goes places. I mean, I also find 5e to be really bland mechanically, and I find streamed actual plays to be misleading at best, but the spoiled bit is what soured me on the edition.

    OK, as far as I'm concerned: I've been a tabletop RPG person since... 2008-ish? And I fell out of love with D&D and its settings around 2014. The thing about Forgotten Realms is that a surface-level visit (like what we'd get in a set) isn't going to dig into the stuff that makes the...

    The core set got replaced by the D&D set, which leaves a bad taste in my mouth, for a bunch of reasons.

    The point is to come up with a 180-card cube where the Kamigawa exertlands are actually worth playing.

    General Fight Club

    Grapple has a few key advantages: You can use it as a Regrowth that mills 3 in a pinch. If you have a way to recast it, it synergizes with itself. It's easier to set up a situation where Grapple gives you maximum value. It asks way less from your deck to be good. I dunno, I've just played with...

    If Mulch is good in your cube, Winding Way is a strictly better Mulch. If Mulch doesn't cut it, then you probably aren't going to want Winding Way.

    You take that back! Green mages have ways to make creatures better, ways to get access to creatures, ways to use creatures, ways to ramp out lands, and a touch of removal! We can do spell-slinging too! Animist's Awakening Gather the Pack Weather the Storm Nissa's Pilgrimage Sprouting Vines...

    Following on from your mention of blue's "bounce to blink" strategy, I'd like to draw attention to a few pet cards of mine: Familiar's Ruse Peel from Reality Withdraw Withdrawal is probably the strongest card out of the three for this particular strategy (it can reset two of your creatures...

    Jason Waddell's Cube

    Reveillark is only as good as the creatures in your deck (and, by extension, your cube) with power 2 or less. Like, it shouldn't be "Kill this, and I'll grab Baleful Strix". It should be "Kill this, and I'll grab Nekrataal and Blade Splicer".

    From what I've seen, it has no reason to be a Magic game. The actual gameplay looks good, if Diablo clones are something you like.

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    I feel like this is less of a "draft the haste/Primal Forcemage deck" thing, and more of a "hey, this interacts with a surprisingly broad range of cards" thing.
