And Wastelands so that it's balanced.Replace the basic land box with ABUR duals and fetchlands.
Has anyone actually done this for testing?And Wastelands so that it's balanced.
Nonbasic land box? You can pick 4? 6? lands from that box after the draft. Fetches in draft, duals and Wastelands in nonbasic box. Give it that Legacy tension.I would pick only wastelands for the win! This doesn‘t sound like a good idea.
And then there's Balduvian Trading Post, where they'll yell at you if you actually discuss A or B instead of suggesting K.I'm on another forum where the mods would yell at you for even suggesting C. It makes conversations awkward.

I quite enjoy the Order of the Stick webcomic, but it is updated at a glacially slow pace. I never contributed to the forums, but the ones for the comic were a little odd: it felt as if the forum posters had to make up for the lack of story progress with wild speculation, pedantic analysis and ceaseless bickering.Giant in the Playground. I made an account back in 2010, and I still bum around their roleplaying section from time to time.
Mostly because it's a bit of a trainwreck, if I'm going to be honest...

Fortunately this never happens on these forums, as we get a new magic set more often than the comic gets a new page.
I do appreciate how, if you ask the members of this forum to pick between A or B, you’ll learn that C was really the answer you wanted.
As someone who finally started posting instead of just poking around, you all have been very welcoming, a great outlet for brainstorming, and will embrace off-the-wall ideas![]()
I've been enjoying the heck out of these forums because it's got the most thoughtful, collaborative, and vigorous conversations in the Magic community. I had browsed for a few years before actually hopping in, but I'm glad I did, and my opinion of Riptide has only grown. Real happy to be here.
I think it really helps that we're a forum dedicated to a creative, non-competitive aspect of Magic, and that our uniting design aesthetic is "I want to run interesting archetypes in my cube.

I still read the webcomic. I put all my webcomics in a Feedly account, so I don't have to manually recheck every so often if there's a new comic upI quite enjoy the Order of the Stick webcomic, but it is updated at a glacially slow pace.

I don't like Lier at all, I think she has a worse floor than Kess because she costs more and doesn't have built-in evasion, but has a higher ceiling because she lets you cast as many spells each turn as you can afford. Cards with high internal power bands usually do not fix the issues of similar, more consistent cards- they just make the feel-bads more pronounced.
So, okay, I think we just talked about Kess a little while ago and people brought up that she's basically a removal check, but does Lier function any differently? I've not tried Lier, but I feel that weirdly enough by keeping the card out of Grixis it opens it up for UG graveyard stuff. Anyone else testing this card?
I'm also unsure of how much this turning off counterspell hurts it. My gut feeling is that it doesn't really matter so much because cubes running this are going to be running relatively fewer/weaker counterspell than cubes that eschew Lier for being weak, but maybe you'll really miss being able to protect Lier with countermagic. Maybe it them synergizes best with taxing countermagic so that you don't feel bad about Censor being useless when you cast this because it's useless with five lands out already. Hmm.
i’d take kess 100%, i think lier is just bad
