I like most of Ravnic's picks, but I'd go Mirrodin for Blue and maybe Regatha for Red? Would have to scour core sets for cards from Regatha though. Cards that reference Keral Keep, etc. M10, Origins, M20, M21. Or include anything that references Jaya or Chandra since they spent so much time...

The "Awkward situation for opponent" is the entire reason it still sees any play in my cube, tbh.

A discard-matters card I've enjoyed since the first iteration of my cube: Spirit Cairn

I warped my entire cube around the power level of Astral Slide and it was worth it. It took less effort than you'd think - there's a lot of incidental overlap with *insert archetype that wants cards in graveyard* and *insert archetype that cares about ETBs*, not to mention *archetype that wants...

It's a shame the white Invokers are terrible (Well, the 2-drop ones, I'd recommend Dawnglare if it were a Mistral Charger). I like Suture Spirit on the kitchen table, but it's pretty weak outside of that. Might be what you're after though so. Dauntless River Marshal I have fond memories of...

Love this so much, especially as CCCC Hybrids (I want more of these in actual sets). Like, sure it's a little odd having the exemplar of a guild be castable with only one of that guilds colours but w/e who cares these are cool and splashy. Rakdos is about as strong as I'd make these before...

I'm more excited for extra reasons to do a Proliferate cube that Corrupted opens up - I like the 'threshold but for poison" as a incidental stop along the way before hitting 10 counters for lethal that makes like, a singleton Virulent Wound/Ichor Rats/Caress of Phyrexia/Pistus Strike worth a...

I love Duck//Duck, would very happily play that card. Now I really want to see a version of Who//What//When//Where//Why that's Duck//Duck//Goose. I'd play Object//Object if it was "{T}: Create one at random a Food a Treasure a Clue a Blood" Like, Wizards doesn't bother to describe tokens...

I just hope they never replace batches - Lightning Bolt and Giant Growth on the same creature would be too confusing if the order in which they were cast mattered.

Hah jokes on them I already only have one mum.

Would you play it if the ETB happened without delirium? I suspect you'd rather have a Thragtusk, Titania, Protector of Argoth, or Verdurous Gearhulk even in that situation. With the delirium condition, I think I'd rather Deranged Hermit. That's just on a powerlevel basis though - Ishkanah is...

I would like to point out the Weatherlight saga was also a pale shade of a notoriously cliched and commercialized genre involving gathering a team of superhumans to fight an apocalyptic threat, so yeah this is nothing new :P That said, I do think your take is a little reductive - just because...

The single letter difference in some card names comes across more as a typo than a deliberate alteration - Frazzle, Render Silent and Muddle the Mixture vs Frazzled, Rendered and Meddle. I think it worked better with Sinister Subversion and Frilled Mage, as that's a larger difference in name...

Dear god please no. Jace is a great magnet for all the terrible writing and inconsistent characterization, and he's already been ruined. Leave Teferi alone. Kill him off before you make him do anything else stupid ("hurr durr I learned nothing from my time at Tolaria, the Mirage wars, or the...

Can't get the lands from the pack sadly - if it said "play cards" sure, but it says "cast spells".

I know there are a lot of people that really like Elspeth, some of whom do for the reasons you outlined above, and that's great - I don't take issue with that at all and I'm definitely not trying to attack anyone for liking her. I wanted to like her after Alara, especially with her teased...

*hits Report button * See, I have the opposite take: The Phyrexians have killed my favourite 'walkers before Wizards ruined them! Three cheers for the Phyrexians! (Also, previously: Dack and Gideon in WAR, thank god they died I loved them too much for me to trust Wizards with them any longer.)...

Yeah that was a very deliberate decision, having 21 gold/hybrid per guild against 21 'true' monocolour cards per colour - making picking up your manabase feel more important, as it doesn't get prioritized enough IMO. Two colour is usually the right call in a vacuum, but paying attention to the...

Thank you for reminding me of this card's existence, it's going straight into my Ana grid cube.

I got very briefly excited about this one, though it got cut pretty quickly. It's sweet if you have Electromancer effects so it can do a Frantic Search impression with some additional upsides, but those are often in U so I don't think it goes where you want it - that is where I wanted it, and it...
