    General Getting Started - The Core of A Cube

    As Onderzeeboot said, drafting your cube is the most valuable feedback you can get. You can theory craft to a certain degree, but a lot of your assumptions or worries will be stripped away once you actually start playing. One of the great things about a sacrifice theme is that you can build it...

    General Getting Started - The Core of A Cube

    I wrote a couple articles on sacrifice themes in cube: https://www.channelfireball.com/articles/cube-design-remodeling-part-one/ https://www.channelfireball.com/articles/cube-design-remodeling-part-two/ Maybe these can think about how to structure things. For what it's worth, the strongest...

    General "Looking for a card"-Thread

    Yeah, it and Hero of Bladehold are kind of pushing it in terms of offensive capability for a 4-drop.

    Oh whoops, I hadn't seen Aston's post. My nitpicking was redundant!

    I agree with most of your post, but will nitpick here. In my opinion, arguably you would be making cards more likely to be played in the same deck better, and cards less likely to be played in the same deck worse. A nerf to Gravecrawler is a nerf to Carrion Feeder.

    The Video Game Thread

    I never spent much time on Super Mario Maker because there was absolutely no quality. Probably less than 5 percent of levels were what I describe as "fun", and the Utopia of a never ending pile of great original Mario levels (that actually feel like playing Mario) simply didn't exist. Maybe...

    +1 for Flip Lilli. Tremendously satisfying card.

    General NWO

    Just a general question, do you guys feel that NWO is still working as advertised? Maybe I am becoming an old fogey, and spent too much time on Hearthstone, but these days when I look through Magic spoilers all I can think is "so much text". It's possible that perception doesn't match reality...

    GBS

    Is it fully working? I get a stripe through the https: and a "Not secure" warning from Chrome.

    Maybe Sandwurm Convergence should just give your creatures Reach instead.

    My problem when I tried this card was that the decks that wanted it were usually Mardu. :/

    General [M19] Magic 2019

    Late to the discussion, but to me it seems like a win-more card. Whenever I drafted Aristocrats, getting the whole engine up and running was nice, but most games you only triggered things a few times, and you wanted your 5-drop (if you even ran one) to be a 5/5 hasty dragon, or a Planeswalker in...

    For someone out of the loop, why did they start doing core sets again?

    Yeah, it's still a little borderline, so if I ran a sleaker ULD Riptide didn't make the cut. Originally the tech was from a Vintage decklist.

    Personally running 18 wizards in my cube. RipLab + Snapcaster are best friends.
