    General Print this Wizards! (So I can put it in my cube)

    If you have a fetch in the yard this comes down as a flying Elvish Visionary. I wouldn't call it insane (as Lucas did) because there's only so much value you get out of a 1/1 flying body, regardless of cost. And unless you run stuff like Gitaxian Probe there's really no way it's coming down on...

    Card/Deck Brainstorm as a lynchpin

    I think things tend to feel worse in EDH than other formats because a) people have weird notions about what is "fair" b) the games take longer, so there's a greater time-loss associated with losing there, amplifying the emotional response

    General Custom Cards: The Lab

    Is there no middle ground between "equipment should be bad" and "Battleskull"?

    You guys should watch LSV play Vintage (to be clear, that's not Vintage Masters).

    Why should equipment be bad for multi-Stoneforge?

    It's good enough. Hyper-aggro wants it. Nobody else does. I cut it.

    All non-4drops have creature type "Angel".

    This is a dumb card, right? Notion Thief

    General Battle Box

    I'd warn that this format is already very decision dense. I had a headache at the end of one game, I don't think Scrylands are what the gameplay needs. Does this format have no mana elves? The problem I had was that so many of my decisions were so marginal (which 3/3 for 4 do I run out...

    General Two Thoughts on Cube Design

    I agree with most of what you've said, but this feels a little weird to me in ways I can't quite put to words. I think perhaps it's the idea that just because you do something (or don't do it) that that's a rule. Off the top of my head, there were lots of tile arrangements that didn't appear in...

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    Hmmm... I had Boom Bust a while back but... the fetchland interaction is cool and cute but that requires casting it a turn later for a discount on Stone Rain that you can't necessarily use. I'll give it a partial.

    I don't know if the land sequences were as fun as I wanted [12:31:57 AM] anotak: yeah i dont know what would make it interesting [12:32:19 AM] Jason Waddell: I kind of got slowly clawed away / blown out by zealous persecution [12:32:45 AM] Jason Waddell: I like the "tense swings" of some of my...

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    I love it as a singleton. This doesn't really seem like a great doubling up candidate, and part of the fun is that people never really play around it. Often you sequence land drops (and spells) so that you "naturally" leave W open (and not U) and then catch them with a Tithe.

    Also how about Extort creatures? This seems like the perfect place for that mechanic.

    That first LSV Vintage Masters draft looked so dumb.

    Everyone Come Look At and Work On This Communal Cube

    Yeah, these are standard CML-isms, but I guess I'd be looking for some tangible direction in terms of archetypes and overlaps. Like the kind of stuff that was there in Eldrazi Domain. I'm not saying that was a perfect cube, but at least I had some direction when I fired up Gatherer. This feels...

    I see no reason to use a shared library.
