I think sideboards are the most entertaining part of legacy for me.

My players don't often complain about cards being TOO good, but this card makes them cry.

With 3 slots I think you should just stick with huntmaster, bloodbraid and flinthoof. Those cards are just everything the colors want! Jace, Liliana, and Crucible are the hardest to replace mechanically, but I don't think anything on the list is a straight-up requirement. Here's some...

I would swear I've posted about this guy. I love the concept but it just never worked well in my list- trading for a quarter of a lingering souls or a leftover wood elves, much less literal walls, isn't where I want... well, anything, really. There are just too many 1/xs for him to 'work,' and...

It's not super dumb but the real bad guys are the gold walkers. Sure you can only have one jace, but that won't stop you from having ral and tezzeret, for example. It also creates this weird feelbad of getting lucky enough to get multiple on-color planeswalkers but you get 'punished' for...

Arrogant Bloodlord Wretched Anurid Hell's Thunder Harness by Force Just the most narrow/worst cards imo.

I'm sure someone will care about one of these Wei Ambush Force Bloodcrazed Hoplite Corpse Hauler Hand of Silumgar Pain Seer Thought Courier Azure Mage INcursion Specialist Invisible Stalker Minamo Sightbender Hamlet Captain Jade Mage SKinshifter Werebear Werebear is actually a human...

I like double-unsummon as well. Waterwhirl was my favorite underrated card of khans limited. Withdraw is a 'rhystic' option for double-unsummon. Upside is it's always 2 CC and is always unsummon- downside is obviously that it just doesn't always work. Playability is probably real dependent...

I'll try to answer your specific questions because I like big surveys. My thinking is probably dated- I don't actually think about this kinda stuff often so this is just a simpleton's post, but it's... something. Hope it helps somehow before the serious people hit you with their dissertations...

I think I have 6 hours clocked on my modo account but I still managed to have stuff on the list. I already spend a disgusting amount of time on my PC- getting into modo would basically end my life.

"Deck don't work? Add Jace!" is back.

Cut walkers: Elspeth, Sun's Champion Sorin Markov Venser, the Sojourner Kiora, the Crashing Wave Domri Rade Sorin became Ob Nixilis to fit in more decks, but I didn't really have a problem with his power level. The rest were either too good (speth, venser), weren't fun (kiora) or didn't do...

Fair. I was actually trying to paint it as awful- did a poor job. I'd love beacon if it were white/plains- 1/1s have no synergy in my green :( Totally gross IMO- random discard is one of the erratic, least-fun mechanics in magic. Especially on turn two.

Good lord, do you guys even have mono-colored lands in your cubes if you let people take the likes of treetop and stronghold in your ULD?

Super cool if you have swamp-type duals. Super niche/bad if you don't. New Ob Nixilis is a significant upgrade to both modes for {1}.

Not great in cube IMO. Suffers in a removal-filled world, can't rebuild itself as easily as other +1/+1 counter cards, lame topdeck where some other landfall-fueled cards are at least mildly respectable without landfall. It isn't a particularly good curve-out, either- it suffers from the "one...

I came here to post this. One of my favorite cards that barely did anything in standard but wrecks over and over again in cube. No one remembers that it has two separate abilities... Also it took me like four years to learn that it was literally 'casting' massacre.

Prerelease Recap: Opened a bunch of rares with eldrazi-like costs that were just worse than eldrazi (swamps-matter vampire, forests-matter hydra) and converge rares when my only thing resembling fixing was a single fertile thicket, had about a third of the cards necessary for any given strategy...

Whenever you scry, cry.

woodland wanderer vs. vorapede Super-gold reward vs. mono-color reward/undying and all its baggage.
