The more I think about it, the more I want to use this wording. It's really excellent!

Silklash Spider is in my cube, he's great friends with Doran ;)

You are correct! I run 10 white enchantments. nyx-fleece ram nyx-fleece ram oppressive rays seal of cleansing suspension field banishing light spear of heliod parallax wave sigil of the empty throne Parallax Wave is edited to work like Banishing Light (i.e. no shenanigans with enchantment...

Presuming you build or are building a cube, did or do you: 1. Acquire (or used already owned) expensive cards for your cube (i.e. Force of Will, Dark Confidant, Mana Drain, Wasteland, etc.)? 2. Acquire (or used already owned) pieces of Power 9 (Mox Pearl, Black Lotus, Ancestral Recall, etc.)? 3...

1: Ground up design 2: Restrictions breed creativity (but not all restrictions are useful) 3: Convergent design I definitely have an idea in mind with my cube, and I'm consciously looking for cards that intersect on themes I run. I still cube a lot of "just good cards", but I'ld say the bulk is...

I'm at one copy of Banishing Light. I really like the "until ~ leaves the battlefield" wording, because it avoids the unintuitive (at least for some of my players) "ability on the stack, destroy my Oblivion Ring" shenanigans. I actually reworded Parallax Wave and made a proxy with the new...

If it could be written down, revealing a card that shares at least 2 color with the mana the land produces, seems like a good reveal clause, yes!

Scarab Shield {g} Enchantment - Aura Enchant creature Enchanted creature gets +1/+1 and has shroud. Sacrifice an enchantment: Target creature gets +1/+1 and gains shroud until end of turn.

I designed a cycle that requires you to reveal a land of one of the off-color land types instead of a treefolk. It plays great, never feeling broken, fixing mana like a boss.

I should really finally get myself to post in the cubes section of this forum. So far the daunting task of writing up a "manifesto" for my cube as well of the enormous amount of unread posts have deterred me, but it's probably the place where the best feedback on this forum is given, so... If...

Fuck yes, Bonsai Gardener! Guilty as charged though, 65 of my 395 nonland cards were originally printed in sets not legal in modern. Then again, I believe CML and Lucre run a lot of modern legal cards as well. Truth is creatures, on average, simply got better (I don't think anyone can argue...

Both organizers used to work together after the new organizer opened a store (my organizer had been the only organizer in town for years before that), but eventually the relationship turned sour. If you ask me they should have worked out the kinks like adults long ago, but enough has happened...

Skipped the prerelease because our organizer is under investigation for hosting tournaments in a non-store location. Well duh, have you seen the store? It's almost impossible to pass each other in the "aisles". Alledgedly the matter was brought under Wizard's attention by the other organizer in...

Yeah, I made a note for that guy. I think he's replacing Wonder in my cube.

Elixir of Immortality is a total trap, except in the decks in which it isn't. For the average drafter, myself included, it's hard to determine which when you should play it though, which makes it a nice skilltester.

Goblin Looter {1}{r} Creature - Goblin Shaman {t}, discard a card: Draw a card. 1/1 Something like that? I think it's only a matter of time!

Upheaval is a p1p1 in Wizard's holiday cube. That should probably tell you something about Upheaval and better ramp :rolleyes: I only run "fair" accelleration, i.e. 2 to 3 cost mana rocks that tap for {1}. I don't run Wilfdire or Upheaval though, so my experience with those cards in cube is...

I run a fairly successful artifact theme in red, with Goblin Welder and Daretti, Scrap Savant, looking to make room for Scrap Mastery because so far the archetype is fun to draft and interesting to play. The draw + discard effects that red has been enjoying lately really help out here as well...
