got some new stuff btw eat it, Public Thoroughfare (but not Rupture Spire)

To be fair, you're not wrong and replaying the milled land from the bin is a failsafe... but I'm always thinking in the "need this land drop to provide a mana this turn, and I only have one fetchable source of X color in my deck for this fetch" mode that is not necessarily the one that comes up...

this is the true essence of cube and I salute you (got a couple buddies who play $30 Vintage and it's amazing how cheap all the stuff that's been reprinted a few times + isn't good in edh is)

It feels awful to mill the thing you were gonna fetch so it encourages some fiddly bullshit with fetchlands responding to the self-mill trigger Hedron Crab style*. That's my only actual mechanical complaint about the card - and it does a lot of stuff, I can see why you're looking forward to it...

Huh, I don't think they have. That's cool!

Dang, I like that one. Reminds me of Reinforced Ronin. It's better in some ways, worse in others, better on balance I think. I'm sad it's BB, two pips always kills stuff like that for me, but that's just my personal dislike. Would much rather have had 1B 2/1 for instance!

now, my entire large post about it aside, I'm definitely going to be grabbing a foil Consult the Star Charts sooner rather than later - though I think it's more of an Astrologian's Planisphere "get one several weeks after prerelease" (i.e. buy yours right now friends while they're still like $3)...

got some pretty sick leaks for this set, although I don't really know how to evaluate one of them (the best kind of leak). putting this all in spoiler tags in case anyone's anti-leak (is that a thing here? do I have to care?)

Bonecrusher Giant Brazen Borrower Once Upon a Time got 3 slots locked in for all my cubes forever, now I can pick the other 357+ At the moment I'm also running Rankle, Master of Pranks (not to be confused with Rankle, Master of Pranksters), Embercleave, Gilded Goose, The Great Henge, and...

take it up with Cynette, Jelly Drover for not being a proper Jellyfish enabler

Huh, I didn't know Quiver made cases! I bought my new set of sleeves from them because they were recommended by a friend (they have specific slightly taller for double-sleeved cards sleeves that are 93mm instead of 91mm) but I did not browse their website closely oh and if anyone's wondering...

someone asked maro on his tumblr "hey are you considering making the type line bigger cause you keep running into this" and he said "no" but he did not rule out The Reality Chip font size becoming the norm edit: it's even smaller than I remembered it being LOL

I was so sad we didn't get a Zubera in NEO. Burning-Eye Zubera and Rushing-Tide Zubera needed more company in the odd-Zubera-out club! e: the spiritual successor to the latter is Inga Rune-Eyes, I will not be taking questions at this time

This has happened to me literally twice in my life: 1) double-sleeved cube packed really tight in a cardboard box 2) three bricks of Wisconsin 3-year-cave-aged cheddar cheese ...all I'm saying is, it means you're doing something right!

...however, none of that had anything to do with Betrayers of Kamigawa so let's talk about some cards from that, but in the spirit of 2006 I'm gonna shitpost. I hope everyone enjoys at least one of these bad takes/bad jokes/occasional glowing praise for a card I love! Matsu-Tribe Sniper /...

As someone who was 16 in 2006, I cannot help but be nostalgic for the time when I had the most free time to care about tournament Magic: the Gathering... but that really was an incredible standard format. The manafixing from the shocklands (and the painlands in 10th), gold cards being a higher...

Can't believe you forgot Blazing Shoal! Hell, speaking of the shoals, do you remember Ghost Dad? Shining Shoal and Sickening Shoal fueled by Tallowisp for Pillory of the Sleepless off Ghost Council of Orzhova and Thief of Hope. The only way that deck could have been better is if Faith's Fetters...

oh my god, I hadn't even thought of these, my type 4 stack back in high school was stored in a Dissension fat pack box (the one with Rakdos the Defiler art on it) because I owned it and it was resilient as hell and just perfect literally the only box with a not-attached top that I've ever...

Just upped my cube from 360 to 450. Double-sleeved, new sleeves (so there's still a bit of air in them I assume) + 200 basics... and it no longer fits neatly in a BCW 930 Count cardboard box (which is 17.25" long). What's everyone's go-to cube storage solution? I don't want anything truly...

long as your red section has 5+ copies of Price of Progress I'm there
