    Today I went to Gent where we alternated between playing indoor soccer and Modern each hour for 8 hours. I am sore as fuck, and, despite by total disinterest in Magic, apparently my Tribal Flames deck can't stop winning. 3 - 0 - 1, with a tie against Jund.

    CML's Cube (405, polychromatic)

    You could just do this anyways.

    Jason Waddell's Cube

    I haven't played with him, but he seems a bit slow and resource intensive.

    I think the slippery slope makes SC2 a great game, because people can cock it up at any point in time. At any moment it's possible to blow the entire game. That's pretty exciting. I played the game for about 6 months, got to Masters League as Protoss then promptly dropped it like a bad...

    I don't actually know how to do that without making a brand new layout.

    Well the fact that there is so much money in the second-hand Magic market means that sites like CFB and SCG (lol, RTL) can do a great job of promoting the game to the hardcore. That's not really true of most other games.

    I believe GOMTV still runs Best of 7. Regardless of all that you said, Magic's biggest flaw as a spectator sport is that it's Magic. When I'm not an active player / follower of the scene, I have no interest whatsoever in the tournaments. Have you ever tried to watch a Limited GP for a set you...

    I've seen Melee do Bo7 on occasion.

    Jason Waddell's Cube

    Everything is multicolor and reanimation is not at all supported (unless you count Unearth).

    Jason Waddell's Cube

    There are like 5 different zombie archetypes (RB Sacrifice, GB recursion, Zombie pod, Grixis, BW Ranger of Eos Zombies) that have been successful in our drafts. Did you manage to snag an Entomb for that deck? EDIT: Also, several people have proxied this cube and came back with rave reviews, so...

    The OkCupid Experience

    Yeah, we're trying to figure out the best way to organize it. The problem is that I currently have no interest in creating my own Magic content right now. I'm not sure the best way to organize the front page yet. The dating articles actually do drive in a fair amount of traffic, but it's people...

    Ryans Mono One Drop Cube

    I would be interested in seeing a gameplay report from a 1-drop cube. Like, a turn-by-turn breakdown of the games. Do people just dump their hands and enter top-deck mode quickly? Is Death's Shadow a total house? How much interaction is there? Do you feel that 20 is still an appropriate starting...

    General Context Matters

    Staff of Nin Elbrus, the Binding Blade Context: Hannes' lower power artifact cube. Tinker was a good toolbox card. Last time I saw it used, the player Tinkered up Elbrus and flipped it that turn. Then end of turn his opponent played this: It was astounding.

    MMA-style Cube

    I don't have much to contribute yet ,but the ideas here aren't so different from stuff that went into the Eldrazi Domain cube. Balancing color representation is indeed a difficult challenge.

    I wonder if most decks aren't just better off jamming Woolly Thoctar.
