    FrogsHateBlue Cube

    Yeah like Mechnically it's pretty clear that the frog hates blue. I just don't understand his character motivations. What trauma made the frog hate blue? Did his friend counter his Craw Wurm one too many times as a child? The world needs answers!

    I don't know man, I know a lot of people who are into exactly the kind of man the Great Divide Guide appears to be. I think there's an argument that he might be the more attractive one tbh.

    I still don't understand why the frog hates blue.

    Honestly I think the Clue generation rate is so insane that the draw two is just gravy.

    He does damage equal to his power (4) instead of his toughness (6). Reference failed. Literally unplayable.

    General The Commander Hybrid Mana Rules Change, and Why I'm Frustrated with Commander Players

    I like building Commander decks. It feels kind of like brewing a Cube archetype!

    Mai fans eating good this set. Too bad they did Anime art for the Thalia-Mai– I really hope this one gets a showcase with better art.

    I love the 9 guilds of Ravnica. It’s a little weird there isn’t a U/B one, though. Dimir? What’s Dimir?

    Actually, the Spongebob Ones were all peices of art commissioned to copy the style of the animated series. They were illustrated by artist Tyler Walpole, who will be at the Shoebox Cube event in March!

    General The Commander Hybrid Mana Rules Change, and Why I'm Frustrated with Commander Players

    This is probably the single largest issue with the standalone set era: sometimes they aren't able to fit the volume of certain mechanics we would like into the single set. I can't really think of a solution to this other than bleeding themes more between sets. I think not doing blocks has been...

    Mana Tithe is now legal in this format.

    I feel like Unlucky Cabbage Merchant is probably a better game peice than Spider-Ham, Peter Porker. In addition to having a more useful ability, it also doesn't force you to track a dozen different creature types and provides an art upgrade. Seems like an easy swap to me unless I really need...

    General The Commander Hybrid Mana Rules Change, and Why I'm Frustrated with Commander Players

    I am genuinely worried the change won't happen now since the Commander community has reacted so poorly to the announcement. I really hope that WOTC was just discussing a change they are going to make anyway and aren't actually interested in incorporating negative feedback, but I'm not sure...

    General The Commander Hybrid Mana Rules Change, and Why I'm Frustrated with Commander Players

    In a recent post about an update to the Commander Brakcets System, Gavin Verhey revealed that WOTC is considering unifying the function of Hybrid Mana with the other Magic formats. In a usual Magic deck, you can play a card with a hybrid symbol in any deck capable of generating mana for one or...

    Wanderer actually only does the Silent Arbiter effect for herself, so if you really want to impact the full board, you still need Arbiter or something similar!

    General Fight Club

    Doubling the cost of something makes the variation a little bit more harsh than a smaller price jump (like 5 to 6). It’s going to be a lot easier to fit 1 mana into a turn sequence in a lather number of environmental contexts than it would be to first 2 mana for the cycling. This is especially...

    It's been kind of frustrating for me how unimpressive the big thicc creatures have been. I want my 8/8 for 5 to actually feel impactful, damnit!

    General Archetype suggestions for a Lands Matter cube?

    It's not quite worse since you don't have to pay the echo cost to keep the creature. 4 mana > 8.

    I think The Hobbit is more likely. There's not nearly as much going on in the background of The Hobbit's story compared to The Lord of the Rings, most of the people, places, and events in the book revolve around individual named characters and locations. Outside of the Battle of the Five Armies...
