Library as a resource. I would like some high-impact permanents to put on the board. E.g. Moat and friends. Chalice of the Void. Crazy things that you think of when you think of the word "magic".

Thanks, oh, and sorry if my tone came off not very positive. I think it's a really nice looking image, and he stitched together the different arts rather well.

If anybody thinks of any cards that would be awesome / different in a micro drafting format, let me know.

Thanks Vibe! I like the image, but it gives me a bit of a weird feeling. For one, it bears striking resemblance to certain MTGS signatures. Two, it's perhaps a little too tall, and lastly I am not wild about the font. Actually, I don't know if we need text at all, but I am always into a more...

I was wondering about the following rule: If you would draw a card while your library is empty, target opponent loses 1 life instead. orIf you would draw a card while your library is empty, you lose 1 life.

Yeah, I was thinking that you wouldn't lose via self-decking, but that something like Thought Scour potentially attacks a very important resource: their library. You could also run stuff like Laboratory Maniac. I'm not worried about short games though, it should be a light, hard-hitting format.

Well, in the next month I will proxy this bad boy up, and if it doesn't totally suck I'll start tracking down the actual cards.

So, Eric and I were chatting today and we had the bright idea to start some topics that could generate some interesting debate. This is not such a thread. Not yet. The conversation got me thinking about how Magic is a terrible two-player draft game. Yes yes, you can Grid Draft or Quilt or play...

Eric and I talked about this before, and if you think about it in political terms, this site is effectively the home of far-left wing cube design. You can actually run pretty deep with that analogy if you try.

Hey, Magic historians out there, how about we break it down to something simpler for now. What dynamics have historically existed in pack to pack drafting? Let's start there and see if there are any ideas that can be ported to cube.

Well, the MTGS forums have long disliked the MTGO cube, so it's not exactly a new phenomenon. Not sure if there's any way to harness that, though.

Feel free to spread the good word wherever you go. Although, be warned, venom is very selectively aimed. It's okay to use custom cards, power, errata, Un- cards, Chaos Orb, make custom split cards, make a cosmetic space theme, etc... other things are strictly frowned upon over there.

Mostly the random ones that care about Legendary creatures. But more than that the ones I don't currently have in my list: Cathedral of War Gargoyle Castle Miren, the Moaning Well Mystifying Maze Pendelhaven Mosswort Bridge shinka, the bloodsoaked keep Kher Keep shizo, death’s storehouse and a...

Oh, and you have the Ranger of Eos tech going too... hmm... more people should do awesome experimenting.

Oooh, Death's Shadow. Let us know how that one holds up!

So, to push the theme a little bit further, I'm running two of every "<shard> <adjective>blade" card except for the Naya hushblade. I have reorganized the file and jammed all the hybrid cards in mono slots. One interesting thing with all the blades is that we have an emphasis on the allied...

Uh, yeah, Polymorph may be going a little deep. I'll keep it on the radar though, it would be a sweet archetype to be able to draft. I mean, it doesn't have to be a completely dedicated deck ala constructed, but it does need to have some preexisting shell you can slot Mass Polymorph into...

Strange that you consider Djinn awesome and Genesis Wave to be luck based.

Is this utterly ridiculous? EDIT: Nope, we need even more ridiculousness:

Assuming I can only keep 4 of the 5, which is the worst fit for the set?
