How about a 3/3 that draws a card when it dies or scries when it enters the battlefield? I mean, he's a librarian for crap's sake!

The best consequence is Ajani's Pridemate.

I keep reading this thread title as "Magic Twerks". Damn you Miley!

I finally ordered some KMC perfect fits. My cube should be pretty well protected soon!

Not good, but certainly playable. A colorless Centaur Courser is perfectly acceptable in limited methinks. Steel Golem even had a disadvantage for that extra toughness! I guess there's also Phyrexian Ironfoot, which actually saw constructed play! Then again, I don't want to make Cogwork...

It almost always gets played by one control deck or another. There's enough X/1's that a -1/-1 counter matters, and if you run any cards at all that can use the proliferate you're gold. It's excellent in the late game with a planeswalker or in a green deck with lots of +1/+1 counters. It's never...

This took a while for me to understand. Man, I don't know anything about American Football...

I wouldn't really classify the last two as mana sinks, since they activate for no more than a single mana each turn, and they don't let you spend more mana after activating them (Crystal Shard targeting your own etb creature is a nice example of a "single mana" mana sink). They're both...

I like how McDonalds adapts to local customs. Did you know the McChicken in the Netherlands is actually different from the McChicken in Germany? It's like time zones, except McDonalds zones are way smaller :)

If he's winning under the current rules set, there's absolutely no reason for him to be interested in changing that rules set, if he is indeed a spike. As a courtesy to his host however, who is trying to improve the experience of his cube for all drafters, he could try being a gentleman about it...

You're giving him awesome, free cube drafts, and he doesn't want to humor you for a night? Nothing personal, but... What a jerk.

I feel Wizards bombed Cogwork Librarian. As a 3/3 for {4} there is no tension during the draft (well, maybe in retail drafts, but certainly not in cube drafts). At no point is there any doubt that you want to swap this card for something better. I think it would be more interesting if you...

Won't the alternate mulligan rule reward a better player much more than it rewards a bad player/drafter? I think you're putting too much emphasis on how this rule helps out the bad player in your group. I suspect the good players will actually have an easier time beating him, because their good...

I quite like Ancestral Guardian. That's a nice way to reward going wide. Seer's Escort is also cute, but might even need to be... better? I think Cloudgoat Ranger is probably better, and that's an uncommon (though it probably shouldn't have been).

I cut transform cards because they complicate the draft for the inexperienced players in my group, but Ludevic's Test Subject is super fun!

I wonder what would happen if you stapled "when you cast this, scry 1" to each creature.

I totally forgot I have a legitimate enchantment theme in white (and in green and black).

Silklash Spider - Suit up buddy! Ok, I'm not taking any damage from that fatty anymore, and any flyers will die next turn! Now all I want to draw is Doran! Grizzly Fate - Without threshold I'll only be happy if I can block some things profitably. Though I can always flash it back later for...

Wat if you simply replaced the draw step with Sleight of Hand or Opt?

I think CML has a soft mulligan rule that goes like: 7 > 6 + scry 1 > 6 > 5 + scry 1 > 5 > etc.? Shuffling is a hassle though. Maybe something like "draw 9, then choose 2 cards from your hand. Put any number of them on the bottom of your library, then put the rest on top of your library in any...
