    Eldrazi Domain Cube

    Sunburst is a pretty good (in abstract) fit for the set's multicolor and proliferate themes. Unfortunately almost all the Sunburst cards kind of suck. Anybody cards you would include...

    General Playing Favorites < 3

    I gotta go with Rosewater here, I can't even imagine picking a favorite. Instead I'll go with cards that speak to me at the moment. Overall: Tragic Slip Cube: Falkenrath Aristocrat Constructed: Dark Confidant Cube Archetype: UWR Tempo

    Man, that Loampox decks looks reasonable. I would mainly just need a couple more lands and Liliana's to put it together.

    Article ChannelFireball: Utility Land Draft

    Sounds good Chris, let us know how it goes. Definitely interested in seeing how specific cards perform. Many of the ones you list were in our stack, but never taken.

    General Decks that have 3-0'd your cube

    Yeah, double white is significantly different than single white casting cost.

    Elaborate on this Loam Pox thing. Also I hate Pod (ironically), so that's out.

    General Having different configurations for different packs

    It's a bit different than the utility land draft idea. Basically, instead of having a "360 card cube" you could have your cube split into three segments. "Pack 1", "Pack 2" and "Pack 3". The order of it affects the dynamics. So for example, the current retail draft environment is interesting...

    Eldrazi Domain Cube

    Not sure about Flamekin, could be sweet with all the Evokers. Hoofprints is an intersection between populate, proliferate and Elemental subthemes. So pretty much a home run.

    Okay, GP Antwerp (my current city of residence) is happening later this year (October I think?) and it's Modern. I need help picking a deck to play. My starting supplies: 2 of each Modern Fetchland 1 of each Shockland 1 of each Modern card that is used in cube Lots of people who will lend...

    General Why did you start cubing?

    For a while I have been flirting with getting back into constructed Magic, as I was pretty successful and now have some CFB funds to brew with. But I think I'll keep trying to explore the peripheral cube design space. I've got my eye on a Graveyard focused cube after this Domain-Eldrazi thing is...

    General Why did you start cubing?

    Okay, yeah, if there was any question about street cred, this guy just Top 8'd an online PTQ using a Gatecrash Guildmage. Three of them, actually.

    Eldrazi Domain Cube

    Yeah, that's an interesting point. I already had Oxid Ridge in there as an interesting card in a spawn-token environment. Bladehold works with Populate, but the card has some other issues. The loosest part of the design right now is the black section. I don't have a great deal of direction...

    Primeval Titan is more important to the design. Fits well, but other cards fit better.

    Cube Tool cuesbey.com - purpose-built site for cube comparison

    Well, I think the first priority would be the ability to save a list more easily? Or would I have to keep track of the diff link? The main concern is that I have to put it somewhere for people to be able to see it. Maybe I can just save half-blank diff links for now? If all I have to do is C/P...

    General Why did you start cubing?

    I have a number of reasons. Curiosity. Not having to deal with the tournament-going populace. Compromise. And perhaps the most appealing was being able to break from Wizards' business model of cyclical planned obsolescence. The constant scramble to obtain cards and tension between your wallet...

    Oh, P.S. we can embed Youtube videos in threads. In case you were worried. And if you need some music for your company's on-hold line, may I make a recommendation? EDIT: Actually, let's open this up to the audience. I defy any of you to find better on-hold music. How could you even get...

    I find it genuinely surprising the number of archetypes that can legitimately be described as "a trap" in the MODO cube. It's not just people Akbarring either.

    General ChannelFireball: Learning from Legacy, Part 1

    One thing I remember thinking about Hagon when I first entered Magic is that he makes it sound like he thinks winning Magic tournaments 12 years ago is the most important thing you can achieve as a human being.
