In terms of snowballing, it's slower than Vinelasher Kudzu at growing, and while the incremental advantage you get out of Tireless Tracker's clue tokens is real, so is the cost of taking half of your mana each turn to maintain the engine. To get value out of it the turn you play it, you...

28 cards, wow!! Cathartic Commando Intrepid Adversary Adeline, Resplendent Cathar Brutal Cathar Sigardian Savior Fateful Absense Sunset Revelry Suspicious Stowaway Malevolent Hermit Poppet Stitcher Consider Memory Deluge Jadar, Ghoulcaller Gisa, Glorious Resurrector Infernal Grasp The Meathook...

Just not sure how often it's going to be better than a 4 mana 4/4 deathtoucher that slowly brings back your dudes, which is fine, but it's probably a good amount of work to get to that point. It's neat though, glad they're doing big turtle dudes, even if it simultaneously feels like it's "for...

Couldn't be more annoyed that they spoiled an entire video exclusively through a video with no high-res links to be found, but here's some interesting cards from MIC with cube potential (including one that's only found in the Set Boosters because collecting Magic is very straightforward these...

Ooh, guess I was rushing through the White section too fast, because I missed these two on first pass: Search Party Captain is reasonably playable but I can't imagine many folks including it over Priest of Ancient Lore. Still a neat card and a neat effect, I just don't want to work for my...

Full gallery is out! Interesting cards included here, though we may have seen Morbid Opportunist before. Evolving Wilds is here just for the nice new art. The most interesting to me here is Lunarch Veteran, a soul sister with upside in the graveyard, and the cheapest Disturb cost we've seen...

I fundamentally agree with this, even if the way that it's done now is better once you know how it works (or, if you're online, which was definitely the core motivation here). This is a more-and-more common issue we're having with design, and I'm legitimately going to have to make a printout of...

Thank you all for keeping me in check, I really enjoyed this art and was trying to rationalize cubing it any way I could...but I think it's pretty obviously not good or interesting enough :wagg:

Here's our competitively-priced Disturb card! He's a Glen Elendra Archmage marked half-off in your hand and a Wind Drake from your graveyard. So many different use cases, all of them pretty good and fairly interesting. This is what Cubing is all about! How close is this? It's a Xathrid...

Wait, there are still rares left to spoil? They saved green's Grave Titan for the eleventh hour! May replace Carnage Tyrant here, not a fan of hexproof finishers in general, even if green "deserves" to have one.

How do these hits keep coming?? That's what, six cards that I absolutely need to include in my cube that have been spoiled since I woke up today, and just as many reasonable includes that I want to think on a little more. General annoyingness of DFC aside in paper Magic with double-sleeved...

Now that the variant card image gallery is up to date, we can see the English version of this card, and it's not 50 pixels tall! If you're playing with Daybound/Nightbound cards (as I unfortunately am), this is a solid pick. It's a nice Thrashing Brontodon effect at two MV, and it's not hard...

I seriously love this card, and not just from the flavor POV -- I think I've found my new favorite red "wrath" for cube...sorry Rolling Earthquake.

Kind of blown away that we get three unbelievable playables all at once this late in the season (from this Polygon article): Cathartic Pyre is the second coming of Abrade, baby!! Bolt or rummage 2, doesn't matter, we've got instant speed going! Will be used as a burn spell probably 85%+ of...

Loving all the takeaways about this set, and agreed at how rich it is for a lot of different archetypes in cubes of all sorts of power levels. I was wondering though, as we approach the final day of spoilers, are we going to have a separate thread for "testing and includes?" as we have for the...

I have a strong preference for Reveillark for the reasons you discussed and more, but I don't think it's significantly more powerful. This is a minor point but hear me out. ReveillarkSigardian Savior Assuming reasonable parity in the graveyard, the scenarios where Reveillark is absolutely...

Move over Reveillark??? Sigardian Savior Incredibly powerful, and while I'm disappointed it's a cast trigger instead of ETB because I'm a degenerate, this sets hits keep coming with alarming speed. No, I'm not going to replace Reveillark with this, which lets you do all kinds of silly things...

I guess there's no avoiding the Night and Day token in my cube...I would really prefer even just the front side of this to Wharf Infiltrator. Maybe I'll print a custom inner sleeve that covers up just the "Daybound" and "2/1" with an opaque rectangle in the same the same shade of blue or...

I've really enjoyed Bala Ged Recovery over Regrowth but I may like this even more? The kinds of decks who want this effect most end up accidentally milling quite a lot of their good cards, and I feel like the ability to use it twice is even more valuable than the (admittedly more common)...

Me too, I just need them to print the reminder text more often :wagg: Has no one posted the Brimaz-killer yet? White's second Rabblemaster at three, but this one uses the awesome tech from Combat Calligrapher (who I sadly recently removed from my cube because they love to muck up the rules...
