I didn't even know Izzet Guildmage was a thing, and I don't even think Soulfire GM is strictly better- forking and buying back are pretty different. There was some ninja discussion about how people hated re-casting their creatures, and at a cumbersome {2}{U/R}{U/R} SGM doesn't get the job done...

I've been kinda torn on those two, really. Overseer is a combination of cards that are generally too good and cards that aren't quite good enough. Honestly I'm still not sure I want it- it's 'good' but I think I'd rather have my shriekmaws cost less than seven. The zombie effect is...

Humble defector was treated as a jank fun card by my players, and never activated unless the owner was super desperate or looking for a point of burn or something. Grand master is weird. It plays best in big-mana decks that would want to capsize lock eventually, and in some lists infinite...

I've run bloodbraid for years but am about to try transform creatures and huntmaster is one of the shining examples, so he's coming in. His lines of play seem pretty fun, too. To combat double-faced cards (lots of newer players try my cube) I'm running the tip cards in-cube and have the...

Cunning Strike Ethereal Ambush There's only 5 gold commons in the set so I think these fit the bill. My contribution is that Tasigur, the golden fang feels incredibly unfair in a deck with enough delve effects.

I just thought I'd bring cards that very closely resemble what you posted to the table to give an idea of viability, since they've all already been discussed to death. Aren't they an easier jumpoff point as something most have tried than theoretical cards that are minutely different? Thoctar...

Woolly Thoctar Vorapede Yeva, Nature's Herald ?????????

Heh, and you can buy it back pretty easily thanks to Act's ability... salt on the wound. Seriously though that's a pretty cheap million health. I swapped my crater Hellion to Caldera when I purged Echo from my list and it's been ok- the extra point really makes a difference and now the "fake...

Budget!! Going in with the intent of using blockers playing a major role in your cube sounds cool- I have no idea how it would play in practice, but it SOUNDS fun. Just glancing through your list, I have to say the general power level across your colors is a little worrying- how anti-bomb do...

Massive target on his head, can get way out of hand in the right deck- I would be afraid in one of these many-brainstorm cubes. He's kinda like wake thrasher in that it's essentially a vanilla huge/huge for {2}{U}, you just have to work for it a little bit, so it gets the added bonus of always...

Green grave titan goooooo

People have hesitated to take them but after someone 'manned up' (his name is Steven Mann) and wrecked someone's day with their flashback abilities they have been pretty popular. Doing anything out of the yard is actually a huge plus since your big/big idiot is extremely likely to eat a nuke...

I'm not overly familiar with Blood Moon play- would I be ok casting {W}{W} with that land base just getting Plains, or should I switch up the fetch/basic split to be more white-favored? Like 3:1, 4:2 instead of 2:2, 3:3 (fetch:fetch, basic:basic)? It seems like there are infinite things you...

I already own everything but 3 boros reckoner and 2 shatterstorm (well I own one stormbreath and one thundermaw for cube reasons) so not much buying to do. I just want to poop on the three-quarters-of-the-field ur delver and burn decks.

I mean I know why they exist, by science I meant what looks like odd numbers to me. I guess he just went even on the mono-fetches, but 3 foundry, 1 clifftop 1 prairie? Wut? I'm guessing he's just valuing scry very hard- I don't see temples that often in modern lists but he has the full set here.

Took a gander at my local modern crowd last night. Delver and burn. Delver and burn everywhere (tournament only had 14 people). So I sat staring at my copies of kor firewalker last night until I realized I should google 'kor firewalker modern' to find, lo and behold, a cfb person recently-ish...

Does anyone actually not pick phyrexian metamorph because they aren't blue? I'm pretty sure that's just a colorless card. I play multiples of looters, man-o'-war, and sea gate oracle because they typically make the most difference in a blue deck's curve, creature-wise. The only card I play...

Is that so different than kalonian tusker? I'm a little curious why they haven't given us an easier leatherback as well.

Someone just say it already please
