I think you're putting too much emphasis on the stock 360 list. Riptiders are notorious for not having average cubes, there's a lot of experimentation here (including your cube), and there's not a lot of cubes on this forum adhering to the power max philosophy, meaning there's room for cards...

I have no words :)

360*360/1080 = 120, or 66% fresh cards between drafts. Yeah, that's insane, no theme will hold at that size. Edit: Also, the impact will be even greater if you regularly draft with fewer people. 6 drafters, 450 cube: k = Kn/N = 270*270/450 = 162, or 40% new cards between drafts! 6 drafter...

Rise was truly awesome, and a breath of fresh air especially after the cutthroat speed and goldfish mechanic (landfall) of Zendikar.

I used to have a 360, and didn't mind it myself, but I expanded to 450 to add a little variance. I don't think you need to go much bigger though for variance's sake, but let's see what statistics (link) say! If we rewrite the following formula, whe should be able to calculate the (average)...

Or maybe it's become hard to grasp because of Hearthstone? I seem to remember people doing it intuitively wrong (so yeah, the Hearthstone way is intuitive) but not having much trouble adjusting after a "no no, the defending player gets to organize his defenses and can choose which creatures, if...

I personally have a 450-card cube, and I would say it definitely is not super efficient, and it definitely still has room for darlings, and not all of the pieces show up all of the time. It feels a lot tighter though than a 720 I would bet. But, well, it was just a suggestion to attack your...

Correct.

Four! Haha, ok, lol. Hmm... Maybe the real fix would be to slim down your cube to a size where you don't need as many targets? Going back from 720 to, say 450, would be a real challenge, for sure, but it's probably better than including questionable cards. An added bonus is that the Welder-plan...

I don't think they go 'I dunno', I think they go 'there's a military organisation in this world, and we have a gold theme. You know what color pair fits really, really well with this military theme? Yeah, {R/W}, that's right!' Also, there hasn't been that many {r/w} pairing in recent history...

So... today I need to vent some ideas to keep me sane or something. Cackling Demon {2}{B}{B} Creature - Demon Trample Nonland cards you own have madness. The madness cost is equal to its casting cost. (If you discard a nonland card, you may cast it for its casting cost instead of putting it...

Did you consider any of these? Precursor Golem Duplicant Scuttling Doom Engine Soul of New Phyrexia Æther Searcher I think all of those are more interesting than a second Battlesphere or a first Sundering Titan.

I don't find the Boros theme particularly boring. It's pretty stock, sure, but... so what? The black zombie theme is even more cliché, but I don't hear anyone complaining about that.

I liked Wrapters take on the Command though, sometimes they will block your 4/4 with their 4/4, and you get to put a +1/+1 counter on your 4/4, then fight one of their smaller creatures with another one of your creatures. Charm can never do that.

Siren of the Silent Song This should totally be a DFC too! Front: Siren of the Soothing Song {1}{u} Creature - Siren Flying When Siren of the Soothing Song dies, you may discard a black card. If you do, return Siren of the Soothing Song to the battlefield tapped and transformed. 2/1...

I live in the far north of the Nerherlands, in Groningen, which still is "only" a 4 hour drive from Brussels because Belgium and the Netherlands are both pretty small countries :) 4 hours is considered beyond "just visiting" range though. A matter of perspective of course, we're pretty spoiled...

Yeah, I like Jonas's better as well, but I can't recreate that, and there's no Ludevic's Test Subject in that style.this one is even better, but Zeerbe pulled the pds template for it offline.

So... I thought of an Aggro land while I was thinking of DFC's. Front: Land {t}: Add {R}, {g} or {w} to your mana pool. Transform ~. Back: Land At the beginning of your end step, if you attacked with a creature this turn, transform ~. {t}: Add {1} to your mana pool.

So, what would you rather see as a DFC placeholder in a booster pack?

That doesn't surprise me at all actually :)
