    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    That's true but also I don't think it matters at all. If we're making up completely new cards, why should we stick to an arbitrary template?

    I really like Born to Be Wild. Both sides fit and the pun is just *italian chef kiss* E: I'm talking about the name specifically, but I'm also a fan of the card itself.

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    It looks like one of those cards that takes a couple readthroughs to really understand what it does, and I find those tend to get overlooked about even if they're good.

    The only card I want to try for sure is Emry, but I'll see how other things feel after having played with them a bit.

    I've not found Survival to be oppressive or honestly even all that good for a while now. The tempo cost of 2 drop enchantment and 1 mana every time you need to use it is very real. I can't remember the last time I saw it in play and thought it was taking over the game.

    Opposition creates miserable games, even if it's not too good.

    General Making broken cards fair

    I've run Fastbond for ages and a lot of drafts it doesn't even make someone's deck. When it's good it's very good, but it does come with some fairly severe deckbuilding requirements. That said I have recently been thinking I should down- or side-grade to Exploration just to rule out that 5%...

    You can't fetch Embereth Shieldbreaker with Goblin Matron.

    My Marvellous/Mediocre Magic Thread

    The problem with legacy is that there aren't really any budget lists, as even the cheaper decks have at least a few expensive cards in them. Your best bet is looking at mono-colour decks, of which there are a few, but they tend not to have a lot of staples that you can easily transfer over to a...

    My Marvellous/Mediocre Magic Thread

    Do you have any legacy cards already? Some decks have cheap parts and expensive parts, but the expensive parts can be stuff like fetches, or Cavern of Souls or some other modern staples.

    3 mana activation cost really kills this one for me, but I could see it finding a home in a slower environment.

    Why is he called Kenrith? I thought that was their surname. Is his name Kenrith Kenrith?

    I'd be tempted to try that at 1 or 2 mana but without the ETB trigger. And make it into a sorcery. It's a really neat design.

    I don't mind Geist so much because a 2/2 is so fragile in combat. If you have easy ways to make it unblockable, it's a lot more obnoxious, but as is I think it's fine.

    That still sounds like several hours of repetitive work, unless I'm misunderstanding something.

    Do you do this for every card? That sounds pretty labour-intensive.
