    I don't think there's anything particularly wrong with her being active later instead of turn four, blue has plenty of great double and even triple-{U} cards. She actually makes an annoyingly fast finisher compared to grindy stuff like Meloku. I actually added both fade into antiquity and...

    Card/Deck Moxen

    Whoever shopped regular playing cards over that lady's rituals, manamorphoses and probes did a really good job.

    General Print this Wizards! (So I can put it in my cube)

    Both abilities don't effect the board in any way (can't even hit planeswalkers like daddy sorin), which in itself probably makes it too bad to play. The ultimate also isn't exactly the most desirable effect. Even Tibalt has a "you lose" ultimate. This is just a wrath. It's probably ok to...

    I hate everything you like

    Speaking of this I absolutely hate people saying they "audibled" to another deck. You just changed your mind, you didn't audible a damn thing. Pros and local tryhards (I realize that is also an irritating term) drop the word constantly and it irritates the hell out of me. It's not that I...

    Card/Deck Moxen

    I've just used it in some aggro decks to just play from 2+, and it lets you keep clunky top-heavy hands with a little less sweat rather than land-heavy hands with a little less sweat. It's certainly not always great and clearly has no extra interactions like discarding a land can, but it plays...

    General Theorycrafting: Designing a Simple Land Metagame

    Clearly I've never played the thing before but how many 15-card aggro decks can you make out of any 100 cards? It feels really odd to me that you'd have a substantial package of lands that can be used every game when part of the pressure is never being able to use cards again if you lose (or...

    I hate everything you like

    I just kind of assumed dubstep was loud, awful, stupid techno. Same, I gave up after attempting many decks that were powerful in their own right, just couldn't beat multiple gray merchants or Thassa without becoming a bad version of one of the existing decks that I have no interest in playing...

    I hate everything you like

    Unpopular opinions thread? Music I hate that you like: Muse, Oasis, Beastie Boys, Rage against the Machine, Silversun Pickups, Eminem, Imagine Dragons, Foster the People, etc. Music I hate that I hope you only pretend to like: Dubstep I don't watch much TV or many movies so I can't really say...

    General Westchester Draft Outline

    The best it has done for my 4-man drafts is lessen the impact of a pack being a color/gold/fixing that no one in the draft actually wants (six or more cards). It would be more effective to shrink the pool a bit, I believe, but no one wants to cherry pick cards when they can just shuffle up and...

    Card/Deck Devastating Dreams

    I don't even know if this is an upside or a precaution anymore; I've seen too many games end at planeswalker + effect that blows up non-planeswalkers. I'm ok with this effect, but very wary of the discard being an additional cost (my players love their remands). Locals have regarded wildfire...

    General Westchester Draft Outline

    Sounds interesting but I will never get to do this with the people who make up my 4-person drafts; two of them absolutely hate face-up drafting and won't even try the utility land draft.

    Card/Deck Squee, Goblin Nabob

    The only thing I've ever actually seen him do with my own eyes is make forbid's buyback discard 1 card, which was pretty damn annoying.

    Is nether traitor too good in your sac-centric list?

    I feel like you could remove the nonsense about being a creature and just have a 3CMC enchantment with scry 1 on upkeep and {1}{U} make a dude unblockable and it's fine. The unblockable ability is the nutters if you have anything worth connecting with.

    Well... I'll just post them all. Evangel of Heliod Heliod, God of the Sun Master of Waves Thassa, God of the Sea Abhorrent Overlord Disciple of Phenax Erebos, God of the Dead Gray Merchant of Asphodel Mogis's Marauder Fanatic of Mogis Purphoros, God of the Forge Karametra's Acolyte Nylea's...

    I'm sure we can find decent hard-color cards in every color, but as far as making it a theme in a specific color I'm going to bet black has the most cube-power cards. I've attempted to push 'big black' with cards like crypt ghast and some x activations/spells. Varying success, it usually just...

    General CFB Store Credit Contest Ideas

    First of all, thanks for being so generous! I'd like it to be as fair as possible, whatever you decide to do. Here's my two cents: Oh please not a recruitment drive. What does getting hundreds of randoms signing up for a chance at free money do? People will ask their friends to sign...

    General Color matters / devotion

    I like the concept of color-matters effects that reward you for being more committed to a color while splashing others, but thanks to hybrid costs/plentiful gold cards and dual lands things like khalni hydra and utopia sprawl aren't exactly restrictive. I would rather just see things that you...

    Card/Deck Life from the Loam

    I like the bloodthirst land. Makes you sad instead of happy to slam an always-tapped land on turn 1 for once. Two-headed is also fine. I guess if you wanna go turbodeep on loam you can try lotus vale and scorched ruin?
