Charging Monstrosaur is great. He's simple, versatile, fits a wide range of strategies and is fun. Not much synergy or cool combinations going for him, but he doesn't need them!

Ah Storm. The posterchild of parasitic archetypes. The deck that makes your cube worse and that leads to silly, uninteractive games and awful draft experiences. But some of us love it. To me, it's the most fun, interesting of all combo archetypes. It's a complex, non-deterministic puzzle that...

I did some more changes and now I'm very happy with the direction my cube is going. I would even say it's getting close to finished and I'm going to start proxying cards soon. Anyways, some interesting ideas and changes. NOTABLE REMOVED CARDS Tolarian AcademyGaea's CradleBazaar of...

Thanks for the suggestions. It's a bit surprising there isn't a "Exalted Angel withotu Morph" card around. I would run Dawnbringer, but having first strike makes her stupidly strong. I was mostly looking for a Lifelink flyer because I think BW control would benefit from it. It's an archetype I'm...

I want a replacement for Exalted Angel to avoid having Morph. - No First strike - Strenght 4 or lower - Simple design. I'm looking for something that comes across as being a bit classic.

Clocknapper looks amazing. It's a real shame to hear you have had problems with it because the moment I saw it I started thinking what kind of busted things you can do with it!

I've been doing a very large amount of changes and the cube is in a very rough state right now. In many ways, it could be considered a step back but sometimes you have to go back in order to progress through a better path. First of all, I've added some fatties because there weren't any...

Nice! Looking at your list I can see you play more artifact creatures than usual (27). That's probably a good part of it, specially when several of these artifact creatures seems generally useful for all drafters. This is a great way to put it.

This is a bit like saying that we shouldn't "narrowly chase playing the right notes" when playing a song on the piano. EDH is a competitive game. If we aren't supposed to try and win or compete with other players, why is it a competitive game in the first place? The problem with EDH is that...

I don't think I've said "gaming isn't and shouldn't be a social interaction" anywhere in my post.What I've said is that balance is a design problem, not a social one. For the record, there's nothing "galaxy brain" about calling D&D a toy. It's a purely descriptive term no better or worse than...

Anyways: Arcbound Ravager. Can it work in a non-dedicated cube? Arcbound Ravager

I was going to say it's not a great example because D&D is better categorized as a toy and hence works very differenly from a game like Magic but, you know what? I actually think this is a similar to the Monte Cook design debate. For those not in the know, Monte Cook is a game designer mostly...
