Why would you put Tinker in the same cube as Sphinx of the Steel Wind? Why would you put Sphinx of the "Oh Look I Got Protection From Two Colors And I Am Immune To Doom Blade And Go For The Throat As Well Did I Mention I Have Lifelink No I Didn't Think So Yes You Can Have My Autograph" in your...

I like this thread.

The Caller is a way better card I think, it means a lot that it is one mana cheaper. You need 8 creatures to die before Fresh Meat produces as much power per mana spent as Caller of the Claw, and needless to say it's a lot easier to keep 3 up than it is to keep 4 mana available.

Haha, fair enough. I still think commander has a lot more to offer than Monopoly/Catan/Munchkin though, it's still Magic after all. I can understand how highlander free for all might not be everyone's cup of tea, but each commander shapes its deck in unique ways, so you often have different...

I didn't know about that card. Onslaught block was the block I sat out, so it's a bit of a blur. Around Torment my parents threatened to cut their financial support of my study. Rightfully so, because, frankly, I was spending their money on Magic cards instead of on my study. Come Fifth Dawn I...

What a pretty, emo deck :) I don't understand where all the resentment for commander comes from though. Not liking the format I can understand, depending on the playgroup it can have some pretty massive flaws, but people here actively have a dismissive attitude towards it, and that I don't...

Because enjoying commander is a capital offense? Elitist snobbery I say! Sure we do, he's in the first post of this threat!

That expansion symbol is really ugly by the way. I'ld have to see the cards in person, but it's almost (almost) ugly enough to not want to put the new commander cards in my cube.

A thread is being derailed because no one knows who this Gurgaz guy is, even though he and Zurgo are probably acquaintances. I mean, since we know Zurgo, shouldn't we also know Gurgaz? He's practically a friend of a friend! Other than that I'm stoked for the Sultai Brood clan, because of my...

Is this card too slow? Mangara's Tome

Say this out loud with a fake Russian accent. What would a Russian guy even mean with 'man fuel'? :D

Hearthstone misses one important feature the tcg had though. Besides classes (and thus class-specific cards) you also choose a horde, an alliance, or a neutral hero, and each creature also belongs to one of these three factions. Horde can only play horde and neutral creatures, alliance can only...

I think the WoW tcg had an interesting take on resource management and "color" identity.

Relevant things you can count: The number of <permanent (sub)type>s you control The number of tapped <permanent (sub)type>s you control The number of permanent (sub)types you control The number of cards in your graveyard The number of <card type>s in your graveyard The number of cards in your...

Ajani's Pridemate is a nice target for squadroning :)

I don't get what's so frustrating about that. Why is a color that naturally (ha!) lends itself to midrange/ramp strategies a bad thing? Do we only want aggro, control and combo in our cubes?

Or we could use the space theme, anyone remember that? Edit: http://archive.wizards.com/Magic/magazine/article.aspx?x=mtgcom/feature/391

Imagine playing Remand in response :)

Toxic deluge This card is awesome!
