    Notes From The Road: Japan Part 1

    General Re-examining The Basic Land Box

    Dooooo it! Report back! :D edit: off topic (does that make it on-topic at RL?) I saw a random dude in the park today playing Pokemon Go and looking towards the gym I was walking towards. I gave him a bro nod and said "What team?" "Blue. Mystic" "Cool. Let's take it." "Your shirt says...

    General Emotional Spikes in Cube Design

    I hate emotional spikes. We had this one FNM regular back when I was in college. He'd regularly throw tantrums if he drew poorly. He'd snap borrowed cards down hard on the table, be generally rude to his opponents, and was often heard to say "I just wanna play my fucking deck!" Dude was the worst

    Pokemon Go

    I'm enjoying it so far. The above criticisms are definitely valid. Game lacks depth and honestly kind of sucks, is a grindfest, etc. But catching them is fun, exploring is fun, having a reason to hit my steps every day is fun, and so are the stories that happen because you're actually out in...

    Sets Innistrad multi-block draft mechanics for Cube

    You've self-imposed a lot of requirements. You should start by ranking them in order from most to least important. I think you'll quickly find you need to bend some of these to accomplish the others, and it would go a long way to know where your priorities lie

    General The Draft Exchange

    I really haven't had issues with the red one. Am I fooling myself? Are we all just shitty at magic over here?

    General The Draft Exchange

    I know we're all kidding, but it kinda is a valid criticism right? (See also "elegance" thread and n.b. number of words isn't the only thing that matters)

    Card/Deck Madness Theme

    It does when you aim it at yourself first! :D I'd like to see some pretty strong madness incentive (I.e. really good madness cards) but if so then I'm so down to try this

    Card/Deck The Simic Combine

    The best I've come up with is the aforementioned TOL stuff, UG flash with Coco and mystic snakes, and possibly UG gro with that proliferate think twice custom (steady progress?) My issue with the first is that it's techy but doesn't feel like a deck in the way my other archetypes do. (Though...

    General The Draft Exchange

    Drafted Peter's. I was a little indecisive on my second color, but blue was very clearly open early. Black kept flowing so sadly didn't get to play Jori En. The power band is wider than what I'm used to, but I guess in a 450 list that doesn't break singleton a ton, that's kind of inevitable...
