    If you haven't seen them already, Dom's articles Rethinking Red and then Rethinking Rethinking Red from the front page might have some use to you.

    Thank you, I was sure I'd seen someone talking about it but I couldn't find the thread. Unbound Flourishing with the finales seems pretty nuts, it's much easier to trigger the 10+ effect. Might be worth looking into... (Edit: just realised this doesn't work, I was thinking it doubles X on...

    More of a double card spotlight for this one Rosheen Meanderer Unbound Flourishing Are these two together enough to form the basis for an "X cost matters" theme? How many X costs do you think you would need to make them proper build arounds? I just have a dream of curving them into each...

    I love the RW monarch deck in pauper. It's completely different to what you'd expect out of a Boros deck.

    Be prepared to answer the question "Is Dark Depths in here?" 2-3 times per draft.

    Please stick to the Minas and the Denns that you're used to. I know that you're gonna have it your way or nothing at all But I think you're Bonding too Fast

    My Marvellous/Mediocre Magic Thread

    We did ours on a google sheet, but over a few days rather than all being there at once. We proxied up the decks for one, and did one or two others on MTGO, but for most of them we never ended up playing the games.

    I wasn't allowed Aether Searcher when we did Vintage Rotisserie draft, and I'm still salty. We did a few in a row, and we did a couple mix-ups like one where you had to pick cards in ascending CMC from 0 to 6 and back down again, with 6 including all higher costs, and a mono blue plus...

    There's also Twinblade Assassins from the new set, which oh wow I just noticed was a 5/4. I thought it was a 3/2. Higher floor, but only triggers once per turn cycle.

    Scarecrone Is this good without any other scarecrows, but with some good artifact creatures to rebuy?

    Sounds like there's enough that I hadn't thought about to give him a try. I don't run bouncelands, but Crystal Shard/Karakas definitely make him more appealing.

    Barrin, Tolarian Archmage vs Aether Adept vs Exclusion Mage vs Man-o'-War The blue three drop bounce on ETB slot is hotly contested these days. I'm on Exclusion Mage at the moment for Riptide Laboratory synergy and ease of cost, but the fact it can't bounce your own things does bug me a...

    I also like Wayfinder as it's good at finding particular lands, which Hermit Druid can't do at all outside of Loam or something.

    Maybe, but apparently other people have had different experiences, because they updated the wording in the new version:

    Some of my friends have been thinking along a similar axis and we've just started running pre-Innistrad legacy events, with Innistrad block being the cut-off due to stuff like Delver of Secrets, Snapcaster Mage, Liliana of the Veil, Thalia, Griselbrand and Terminus. The first event was at the...

    if it'll fit, maybe "a yes or no question relating to the game" just to cut off someone insisting they should be able to ask personal questions

    vizier of the menagerie was the first thing that came to mind from that description. I never got around to trying it but it does seem pretty sweet, anyone played with it?
