    I'm also willing to accept that Haven might be too hard to support/swingy in this environment. Definitely something I'm thinking about!

    What are cool Riptide trends that I've missed while being away while our son was young/pandemic? Any pet cards, design theories, or other cool things I should know? Link me!

    I'm trying to limit the number of repeatable discard outlets so that the Haven player has to work for things a little bit. I'm okay with it being an aspirational card that sometimes goes off and makes a dozen drakes and other times doesn't make the maindeck. That said here are some options I'm...

    It's still very weird to me which creatures in neo-Kamigawa are enchantments vs not. Newer cards show even less border, so the sparkly stuff is hard to see and the art itself doesn't speak "enchantment" to me.

    This would be in addition to Beanstalk Giant, yeah.

    It's been a minute, but I'm excited to jump back into Riptide waters. I'll create a more formal write-up as I get more time, but wanted to get this thread made. (Hopefully no one else here is using this name for their cube.) I'm going for a retail limited power level environment based on...

    Necromancy scales pretty directly with your environment's power level. It'd be perfectly fine in a retail limited environment that wasn't centered on the graveyard, for example.

    Was brainstorming an allied cycle of hybrid token-making lessons: WU - 5 mana 3/3 flyer UB - 4 mana 3/4 BR - 3 mana 3/2 menace; can't block RG - 4 mana 4/2 trample GW - 3 mana two 1/1s with vigilance (or a single 2/3 with vigilance) Do those seem about on-par with the rate of the Strixhaven cycle?

    How do folks feel about Sarulf’s Packmate as a role-player? Being able to smooth your draw while putting a respectable body on the board regardless of whether you’re flooded or tight on lands seems good even if it’s never going to be flashy.

    Yeah if anything Yawg Will is the one bending the color pie. We just don't think about it because it's an old iconic card.

    I'd actually prefer seeing clue support in U/W than U/G. White can use the cantrips and it overlaps more with existing artifact synergies. Simic already has the best card draw, so it doesn't really need clues.
