To be fair, I don't run 20+ fetches ;) But, point taken. There is still a Serum Visions in my cube that could potentially be a Brainstorm, but I like mixing up the spells a little bit.

I feel squadroning should be done on any card that you want, by design, a player to end up with two of. Usually because the card lays the foundation for an archetype or because having two players pick one will end up in neither being played, whereas both would get played in a single deck. By...

I posted a shitload of mechanic ideas in the Hearthstone thread. Wizards could never print these as they are ripped straight from the Blizzard game (abilities, names, cmc), but we could! Most of these are basic cards to showcase how I would word the ability in Magicese, so not all of them are...

There are some pretty cool ideas that can be ported over to Magic in this game, but the problem is that some of the cooler cards are definitely gold. Unlike Hearthstone, Magic does have a color philosophy to respect. Silence, for example, would be primary in white and secondary in green in my...

I don't know what happened, but I'm hooked again (for the time being at least). That expansion is pretty cool :)

There's an artifact deck, a black inspired deck, and aggro in general that could benefit from double Drum. Wait, you can see for yourself: http://cubetutor.com/visualspoiler/6914 :) I was just going through my list too see which cards were nice to have in multiples in certain archetypes, but...

Next cube session is in two weeks, so I could also just pull the trigger and squadron all of these so I can give you proper feedback on how bad of an idea squadroning some of these is :D

There already is an enchantment theme in my cube, and Eidolon of Blossoms is good in that, but it seems exactly the card you wouldn't really be happy with unless you played a lot of enchantments? I am definitely undervaluing Blood Artist it seems, maybe I should move one of them out of cube...

I've never seen two in action at the same time, that might be more brutal than I imagine. It is a card I doubled up on, but which I'm considering for squadroning instead.

My gold section, especially Azorius, probably isn't the best representation of the power of my cube though. I deliberately run only one multi-color planeswalker (Tezzeret, Agent of Bolas) to keep down the number of planeswalkers in my cube, no hexproof to keep games interactive (so Geist is out)...

I run... Sejiri Merfolk Dauntless River Marshal Curse of Chains Lyev Skyknight Brago, King Eternal

Currently contemplating the following cards for Squadroning, what do you think? Champion of the Parish Ajani's Pridemate Cloudfin Raptor Ghostly Flicker Blood Artist Grim Guardian Generator Servant Young Pyromancer Eidolon of Blossoms Life from the Loam Birthing Pod Perilous Myr Springleaf...

Munchkin is responsible for what is probably my worst gaming experience ever. I've played games that just didn't pan out (Thunderstone Advance comes to mind as a recent example), but none of those left the playgroup grumpy, down and irritated at each other quite like the last time I played...

Of course Commander doesn't have to be free for all. Star Magic or 5 Player Collapse are fun formats for specifically 5 players, but Attack Left is also quite good.

I wonder if Ninjutsu will be a returning mechanic... Edit: Because out of all existing non-morph mechanics, it feels the most sneaky, and thus a good fitting mechanic for the Cunning clan (Jeskai? {w}{u}{r} in any case).

I could see playing all of the except Sage of Epityr, that card is just terribad. Court Hussar is also a bit suspect, as it really isn't worth it without the body, and {w}{u} has better options.

That made me chuckle out loud :) Bad taste is totally excusable though, as long as it doesn't harm good taste. The economy thrives on bad taste. One could argue bad taste does harm good taste, as in: every penny spent on another Monopoly clone could have been spent on developing a good game...

Incidentally, Boggle is one of my favorite games. For real. Somehow I ended up with four different copies of the game. That is, until we moved and I kept only one of them.

Ridiculous. It is very hard to evaluate at first glance, but it is usually a better target to tutor for than Sundering Titan or Sphinx of the Steel Wind. If your opponent has nothing, he will die faster. If he has something, you get to keep 4 1/1's. As a 7-drop it is awesome, but I would highly...

I used to have Myr Battlesphere and Sundering Titan in my cube, because that's what everybody tells you to do if you, as an aspiring cube owner, are trying to read any cube-related strategy pieces you can find. Sphinx was never in my cube because I hate protection and, to a lesser degree...
