What's the distinction between Cube Academy topics and normal articles? When I think of educational resources, I think mainly of more abstract pieces about design rather than specific ideas (like sac-based black)

Feel even more incoherent than usual atm, so quick thoughts on each: - Grafted Wargear > Swords and probably > Jitte imo as well. - Batterskull is powerful and interactive without being oppressive: it's not like Baneslayer Angel where it just dominates the board on its own, and it often...

We have a winner, fellas. 'Polukranus, World Eater'...

I feel like Chandra's going downhill. Chandra Nalaar, you get what it says on the tin. Her name's Chandra Nalaar, so the card's called Chandra Nalaar. Very functional, almost German. Then we got Chandra Ablaze, which is cool because HOLY SHIT SHE'S ON FIRE SOMEONE HEL... oh, that's the point...

Mogg War Marshal is solid

How has Ancient been? I never really saw it as a potential Cube card but given that my Cube has 3+ Heartbeat effects in it that's probably an error. 7/5 is pretty beefy as well.

Tempo at its best (think Faeries) involves being able to change the direction of a game quickly. Often you'd mess around killing guys and countering spells, then play a Clique into Scion or w/e and suddenly they have three turns to find an answer against your cheap and plentiful disruption or...

The fact that he's extrapolating Cube results to Constructed given how carefully Pyromancer forces you to construct your deck tells you all you need to know.

Maze of Ith is eminently fair IMO. I wouldn't call an indestructible Blinding Mage overpowered (and it's worse than that a fair bit of the time). Cards I hate are Black Vise and Ankh of Mishra. They rarely lead to interesting or fun board states; I'm happy to run a card like Nether Void, which...

voluntarily playing Brawl over Melee is grounds for excommunication in my book

Him beating Leffen earlier was awesome

That's definitely true, but the fact that it's hybrid is really nice.

If I asked myself what effect I'd want a 4/4 for 3(R/G) to have to make it viable for Cube, I'd probably set the bar much lower than Rosheen. Obviously her ability is very specialized, but I kinda like that: she doesn't just go in any deck, and when she's good she's very good.

I love the idea, but I love most ideas. Other cards it works with: Sigil of Distinction, Bonfire of the Damned (!), Condescend, Repeal, Skeletal Scrying, Who, Aurelia's Fury, Martial Coup, Chord of Calling, Entreat the Angels (!), Genesis Wave, Decree of Justice, Wargate, Stroke of Genius...

Yeah, nothing bad to say about Revelation.

No weaker than they are without Swords/Wargear or whatever else you're planning to do with them, IMO.

Some fun ones from goodgamery: Beckoning Angel 3WW Creature - Angel Flying W: Exile target card from a graveyard. If it was a creature card, put a 1/1 white Spirit creature token with flying onto the battlefield. 4/4 (this could be a 3/3 for 2WW, imo) Brain Gobbler 1B Creature - Zombie B...
