General Print this Wizards! (So I can put it in my cube)

[Lucre]

3 colour cards are gross and theres a lot of weird flavor and design issues but I like some of what he is done.

Card Draw Guy 1B
Human Dude
When ~ enters the battlefield, you may discard any number of cards with total converted mana cost three. If you do, draw 2 cards.
2/1

 

[Rasmus Källqvist]

I must say that star wars set actually looks like something resembling a limited format. Some of the multicolor cards are a bit spicy but the mechanics are pretty clever.

 

[Lucre]

yeah right out of wizards playbook, boring linear tribes and a gimmick theme like 3 colour to add a lil spice.

I like card draw guy!
How about... THIS!
Unearth Guy 1B
When Unearth Guy etb, target creature in your GY gains Unearth 1B until end of turn.

(He could also be red???)

In red I would make it put a token copy onto the battlefield, I.e. one-shot Feldon of the Third Path, but yeah, that's a nice effect to add to red!

Ooh! AN ARTIFACT TOKEN!
Nice one!

This video showcased some good ideas, take a peek if you like to make your own MTG-cards !

Me: "Can I ask how your draft went, how balanced it felt, and how much players liked it? I am interested in printing this, but my gut feels the Hate cards could be inconsistent but other stuff self-combos easily."

Random Person: "The one guy who built a hate deck won actually! It was very well balanced and more fun than I've had playing magic in a long time. There are plenty of ways to keep each archetype strong if you build and play right. I pulled some droids, Jedis, and human advisors and loved it. Meditate is amazing and Repair is very strong. If anything seems like its overpowered, we pretty much always found an answer to it."

The wishes are near misses in cube. Maybe a bit of versatility and making a version that works with current rules would be good?

Satanic Tutor - 3B
Sorcery
Choose one:

• Search your sideboard for a card, reveal it, and put it into your hand. Exile Satanic Tutor.
• Put target face-up exiled card you own into your hand. Exile Satanic Tutor.

It's still gonna take a lot of convincing for people to be happy to cast diabolic tutor. Hell, I'd let people wish for any card in the cube not in someone's deck and knock the cost down to B1, because Demonic Tutor isn't actually that insane in limited

 

[japahn]

Well, this is the thread asking Wizards to print a card - 1B wish in constructed would be insane. Besides, wishing for sideboard is not necessarily worse than wishing for library - it lets you grab narrow cards.

 

[Suicufnoc]

Keep it Simple:

Demonic Wish - 1B
Sorcery
Search your sideboard for a card, reveal it, and put it into your hand.

Kind of cool. Still wouldn't see print at less than 2BB or so, but whatever.

 

[Chris Taylor]

Yeah I've kinda given up on the conceit that wizards might actually want to print anything in this thread. the needs of a limited format and the needs of literally every other format ever diverge too much.

 

[Onderzeeboot]

So...

#1: Accorder Paladin is a tad too weak on offense (unless there's no blockers in sight).
#2: Scavenging Ooze has been touted as too overbearing on graveyard shenanigans.
#3: Nyx-Fleece Ram is semi-interesting for control only, and pretty much unplayable in other archetypes, but I want to meet a threshold of enchantments for my enchantment subtheme. I'm looking for something that is at least a bit interesting for other archetypes as well.

How's these for replacements?

 

[Suicufnoc]

I think those cards are all broken. I kind of like them all, but probably would tweak

 

[safra]

I like Dream but Ruthgart and Ooze seem clunky. Maybe he needs "another target creature" and it wants a cheaper activation, since it only happens once and presumably you'd be holding it up at that point?

 

[Chris Taylor]

I think if you want Accorder Paladin to be good, give him Kytheon's Ability.

 

[Onderzeeboot]

Yay! Feedback!

I think those cards are all broken. I kind of like them all, but probably would tweak

Broken, really? Huh, I kinda disagree? They don't seem to be that much more powerful than existing cards, but of course they should be playtested. It's good that you like them though!

I like Dream but Ruthgart and Ooze seem clunky. Maybe he needs "another target creature" and it wants a cheaper activation, since it only happens once and presumably you'd be holding it up at that point?

Wruthgart wants to protect himself most of the time, I just made it target creature so you could choose another creature. It's easily changed to "Whenever Wruthgart the Vanquisher attacks, it gains indestructible until end of turn." though!

I think you activate Ooze on turn 3 if you don't have a follow up to just bash for 4, which is fine (see Beastbreaker of Bala Ged, which is almost playable in cube). It's too much mana to keep up generally, which is exactly what I was aiming for, because the problem with Scavening Ooze is that it's too easy to keep up mana to disrupt graveyard shenanigans. Hate is fine, but overbearing hate just makes games unfun.

I think if you want Accorder Paladin to be good, give him Kytheon's Ability.

Or I could do this. Deftblade Elite also has an interesting ability. I kinda like that it is only indestructible on offense though.

 

[Onderzeeboot]

I think I solved the problem with Wruthgart? Also the name is now less ridiculous!



Recurring Dream is, I think, staying as it is, needs a playtest. How does the lifegain on Gravegorger Ooze look? I'm fairly certain I got the costs right on the montstrosity ability, and the exile is fine as a rider I feel.

Also, two new cards up for debate. Both deal with graveyard shenanigans, which my cube has quite a few of, and red couldn't really deal with adequately I felt. One is a simple burn spell, and one has a bit more play to it.

Savage triple-post...

I just came across Nucklavee and an Izzet Chronarch for in my Izzet section. How unfair is Ire of the Immortals into one of those into... well, rinse and repeat?

I think soft locks are fun in Cube so imo just the right side of unfair. It's an awful lot of mana and still reasonably disruptable.

Speaking of: fair, unfair, can I get some feedback on this babe? I was gonna run a Ground Seal/Elvish Visionary bro but Eidolon of Blossoms isn't really my environment's idea of a 4 and Argothian Enchantress has Shroud which I don't like so I synthesized and synergized. Mostly I wonder if triggering off itself at 2 mana is "broken" but I doubt it!

 

[Chris Taylor]

Idea Dump:

Does anyone know how I can get this card to trigger immediately, but not trigger like 3 times when I proliferate my team?

Is this worth playing?
Also the name is a bit cutesy, though I think the flavor text might save it. Thoughts/Alternatives?

I've found that white (while also having very few cards that work with young pyromancer) also doesn't have decent ways of dealing with utility creatures (since you want to save the strong stuff like path or oblivion ring for bigger threats than say, Joraga Treespeaker.

Crater Hellion for the new age?

Thanks for the input! Root-Maze Enchantress looks a-maze-ing! (Sorry, couldn't help myself!) I wonder if a typical enchantress deck in your cube want to reanimate stuff itself though, the typical colors for that deck being .

Idea Dump:

Hmm... I believe this would, largely, do the trick:

Whenever an effect places one or more +1/+1 counters on one or more creature you control, you may draw a card. If you do, discard a card.

The only way for it to trigger itself is to use "When ~ enters the battlefield, and whenever ..." though, I think.

Other thoughts:

• Small Gods does not depict a tortoise. This is a grave oversight brutha!
• The playability of Small Gods depends on the amount of targets of course, which varies across cubes. I don't run StP or PtE for example, making it a lot less reliable.
• I don't know what to think about Humiliate, except the name sends chills down my spine (and nitpick: the 3 should not be a mana symbol).
• I really like Crater Hellion, it's plenty good enough for this day and age. Other than that, Brimstone Colossus is a good card of course, it's just not in a niche that I feel needs to be filled

 

[safra]

Small Gods is def playable i really like that actually. what if it was re-flavoured as some kind of clerk or magi-legal assistant? Or a religious novitiate?
Shrine Maiden
Creature - Human Monk
When Shrine Maiden ETBs, recover an instant or sorcery w/ CMC<=1.
There's more to life than making offerings and telling fortunes.
2/2

like imagine getting to suspend a second ancestral vision lategame or rebuy your Ponder t2 (or Misstep ahaha) this design is real sweet and I think with the right flavour could be super.

Brimstone Colossus is great and feels very Core Set (but I mean this in a positive and glowing way!)

e:

While in the past they have (Whip of Erebos playing a large role in bridging those links) they've been more Rock-style attrition decks. I'm not running any of the Aura reanimate spells and am swapping Whip for Dread Return, so I don't actually have as much of a nonbo there as you'd fear! The deck that wants to grind on-board advantage might very well want to reanimate stuff too but having to prioritize one path or the other will hopefully lead to greater deck diversity.
