    Could that be a preference thing? I like my Boros section plenty, but I also love playing Boros decks, so it feels like there’s some correlation, for me at least.

    Wait… did we independently come up with the same design? I just cooked up the same exact card a month ago XD

    Sure, but even if nostalgia was your only reason to play the format, that is still fine. Like, for me nostalgia is not a denigrating word. So I'm sorry if I made that impression on anyone. I just meant to say that it looked like a nostalgia format to me with a fairly slow-moving metagame...

    I mean, I started with Invasion. Solidly in the heydays of the old frame. So maybe I’m just projecting XD

    It's a very one-dimensional lens on nostalgia. "This deck never existed in Magic's history, so it can't be nostalgia!" Meanwhile you're still playing with cards that used to be viable but no longer are, and you're excluding everything that's not in the old frame. I mean... Also, what's wrong...

    I mean... I'm a cube owner. I even have two, one of which allows you to permanently alter cards. I have over 40 Commander decks despite only playing Commander every other month! I think brewing potential and novelty are fairly high on my "what do I like about Magic" list XD But honestly, no...

    Sure, but I personally wouldn’t pick them up daily. I don’t play chess either. And while the card pool of premodern is deep, you can’t just pick up any deck of random cards and expect to do well with it at a tournament. I bet you that all the top 8’s since the format’s inception don’t add up to...

    Cool concept, but the fact that it will never receive new card means it will be solved eventually. I do think nostalgia is the main raison d’être for this format…

    It’s new to me, at least, and this is perfect storytelling :)

    The good news is, the hectic period of a parent’s life doesn’t last forever. And I should know, since my daughter (and youngest) just turned 10! Dear Lord, where did the time go?!

    No, Threatens are fine if they last until end of turn. People don't really forget to give back the creature at end of turn. I think I currently run Eriette's Tempting Apple. I used to have Yasova Dragonclaw, but I don't know if that's still there.

    Minsc and Boo, Timeless Heroes This card is consistently excellent in high power cubes, and fun to play with. Obviously there's the annoying commander trinket text, but he hits like a truck!

    I cut all steal effects from my cube when I realized it is pre-sleeved, so players can’t tell apart their cards. It’s so easy to accidentally shuffle up one of your opponent’s cards after the game.

    Congrats, and welcome to the club! :) I always like to wish soon to be parents the best of luck, because as much as you know your life is going to change, it’s hard to really prepare yourself mentally for it. Just gotta experience those sleep-deprived nights where you desperately try to figure...

    A lot of us adopted custom cards, automatically disqualifying those cubes from WotC-sanctioned environs :sweaty_smile:

    Good catch! I can also drop the “under your control”, since that is implied if you’re reanimating from your graveyard :)

    Hmmm... Something to ponder! I would also settle for a {3}{w/b}{w/b} wrath with a non-targeted Helping Hand tacked on :D
