A prohibitive mana cost that doesn't even support Devotion. I'm putting it on a no-fly list.

Mortars plays really well and there's a fun tension between cashing it in for value now and waiting for the one-sided sweep.

Somehow it manages to work. I've 3 - 0'd with a couple GB decks filled with them, last week a GR Ramp deck went 2 - 1 using those spells.

Erm, maybe. But that was the scooping point anyways so it didn't really make a difference. I suppose a mistake is still a mistake though.

You could probably get away with 16, although maybe this isn't a Primal Command deck.

I think you're being a bit naive about Mortars, Eric. Do you have some justification for that stance?

I'll read this later, but I have used Chandra's +0 a ton in cube, and it's a pretty enjoyable ability. I do agree that it doesn't slot very cleanly into a control shell.

I got out-teched tonight when my finals opponent played all basics, then used Zealous Conscripts to steal my Wasteland and blow up another land, locking me out of a color.

I kind of wonder if an archetype is worth supporting in a traditional cube if it requires fast mana rocks to operate. I don't think the upside is worth the cost.

Play of the day today involved attacking with an 0/1 Blood Artist to trigger Curse of Shallow Graves. Later Blood Artist would rumble into the red zone off of Teetering Peeks and Reckless Charge. So OP.

Hannes fell asleep reading a book and missed our entire draft, so we had 7. We did the MODO style random picks thing for him, and his pool ended up forming some BW beatdown deck that we all agreed was better than his average brew.

Why can't we just have cool don't give a shit cards like the old days. Lorthos

It's uh... fine, I suppose, but I probably wouldn't play it in our aggro decks and it's hard to get value out of it in other decks until the late game. I don't think it has a strong home, and it isn't really serving enough of a purpose for me to be all that interested in dedicating a slot to it.

Yeah, but you can still discuss them there with a cube slant, no? I guess what we were trying to do was give people a place to make threads for topics that they might not otherwise make or discuss if only the one thread existed.

I think you'd find it more amenable if we had more custom card people over here. Anybody up for some recruiting? If you build it, might they come?

Oh, is that why you're posting so much today?
