This is pretty elegant design, I approve! I also really like your quote about errata. I think I may write a CFB article about cube errata in a couple months, would you be up for an interview?

I think there's a big discussion to be had on the subject, but I am considering removing all "must remove" artifacts / enchantments from my cube, and stripping nearly all the artifact removal with it.

Hey, thanks for joining us! I hope you enjoy your stay!

Well, I mean, consider how good of a finisher Creeping Tar Pit is, and it doesn't gain life and can be bolted. And needs to be activated on your turn.

I like the Scrollhouse. Yagmoth's House seems massively unplayable. I wonder if Deathrite Wastes isn't massively OP.

Is it mainly the colorless bomb thing that people are having issues with? Because I love opening a Pack 2 bomb in another color and weighing whether it's worth it for me to jump into a new color / abandon an existing color to get there. If everything is flat power level, this doesn't really...

Okay, so, you say it's bad because it's a 1/1 temporarily, but, Christ, it's not for blocking anyways. Almost all cube removal that kills a 1/1 also kills a 3/3, and turning Black is actually a form of protection against black removal. The life loss is almost always irrelevant. And people run...

My personal emotional response was along the lines of "does it even matter", followed by the lack of satisfaction in knowing I had made a sweet / correct pick.

Power-level wise, how do you think it compares to white's other 3-power 2-drops? Cloistered Youth Daring Skyjek Accorder Paladin (in cube, obviously)

To be clear that doesn't shut down things like Dark Confidant, correct?

That's strange, I think I would cut Jitte on power level concerns way way before Jace. Jace doesn't even top the list of most oppressive cube Planeswalkers.

Are they all custom cards or just reskinned other cards?

My cuber who qualified for the Pro Tour is streaming a Modern Daily starting in 5 minutes: http://www.twitch.tv/belgicmagic

A couple assorted comments: I am not terribly worried about the possibility of making one-fewer drafting decision. Also note that not all Jitte decks are created equal, and given that you have a Jitte your other picks can be weighted differently. Personally I think that the in-game decisions...

I moved this to a new thread as it wasn't really about 3-0 decks anymore. Anybody want to argue for / against Jitte? The way my opponent played around it in M3G3 of the last draft was extremely interesting, and the usage of counters was actually a very intricate, tactical dance that would not...

We have rules?

Game-ruining bullshit.

I stand by Cloistered Youth still being a good card. For comparison, last draft a player jammed Ajani's Pridemate into his Junk deck, and often it just incidentally grew to a 4/4 by Turn 4 or so, and it proved to be one of the best cards in his deck. If Kudzu started as a 2/2 we'd probably...

I don't really think easy P1P1s are problematic. I don't even know that easy P3P1s are that big of an issue. Lots of cards present fun subgames though. One of my favorites is the "get 100% of the zombies off the board" subgame. Well designed PWs make for interesting subgames. I don't really...
