if you want to go more old-school: Promise of Power

Bargain swings wildly between 'this card is terrible, why is it in your Cube' and 'this card is broken, why is it in your Cube' with very little in between

1. Cube can be entertaining yet accessible for new players, but you have to actively try to tone down complexity. Make sure that your themes are obvious and that it's apparent which cards work well with them, and try to ensure that the seemingly powerful cards in your Cube are actually the good...

I can't wait to Soulfire Grand Master + Blasphemous Act people too

Whip of Erebos + Crater Hellion is my jam

Thought experiment: how much P/T would a vanilla creature need to have to be playable at 3A? At 2AA? 1AAA?

Anyone else excited about Whisperwood Elemental? There are a LOT of good green 5s, and Whispy does a lot of things well rather than any one thing incredibly, but I like the total package.

I would rather just have another X/4 than Beastmaster, I'm trying to kill them ASAP

Of course you have various niche 3-drops like Aura Gnarlid and Azusa that you know if you're interested in. Awakener Druid is fun in C/Ube Boggart Ram-Gang is basically a RRR card unless you fully support green aggro. Boon Satyr is fantastic, play it. Borderland Ranger is ok but I agree...

Arc Trail seems loose, the deck wants SB Blood Moon and probably MD Brimaz. Boros Charm is neat against BGx as having a way to protect a threat from Abrupt Decay is important and the 4 damage lets you win races but also kills Liliana if your board is clear.

I didn't like Tasigur until I realized I do like Hooting Mandrills and I couldn't have both those views at the same time.

Fleecemane Lion is great, it's a solid beater that creates a fun dynamic around removal and is something you actively want to draw late game. Unlike a lot of 2-drops it's good in control as well. If we're choosing BG 2-drops I vote for c. Putrid Leech or d. none of the above.

Great job Chris, a real testament to mastering a deck (and to playing Siege Rhino). What was your list? Missed Top 8 on breakers with Abzan Aggro so I'm probably just running that back if I man up and go to Dublin this weekend.

In your standard Goblin Guide-Stormblood Berserker red deck, how often can you trigger ferocious? Even some of the 4 drops like Hellrider or Bloodbraid Elf don't activate it.

I love love love Seeker of the Way, Monastery Swiftspear is fine, I want Jeskai Elder to be good but I'd rather have another Looter il-Kor. The new prowess guys all look awesome - for Mentor the question isn't whether it's good enough, it's why there are so many good white 3-drops. Obviously...
