Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

[GalacticTraveler12]

My favorite application of Mishra's Bauble is with



Invaluable for your Trawler value chains and makes all your 1cmc trinkets draw an extra card, also tells you whether or not to mill yourself or your opponent with Codex Shredder, can be cast as a free Prowess or Storm trigger, etc. Just a fantastic cog.

 

[sigh]

I might give Trawler guy a whirl. He really is great in my Teshar EDH deck, and I've got the bauble angle going for me already.

Trawler is one of my favorite cube cards. Definitely take it for a spin

 

[Velrun]

I have it the other way around.

I already run Trawler but now wants to try out the Baubles

 

[Velrun]

How well would these guys fare in your cubes?

(Not actually a single card spotlight, I know I know)

I am debating if these are still too good or if they are actually too difficult to get to work now.

Swords=OP. Even with the "protection from X and Y" blanked. The only one I think is actually "fair" is War and Peace without the protection. All of them are bananas.

Fun fact: I actually made a mod for Minecraft that added these... I never finished it though.

Sword of D&D has been kept in check in my meta just from the fact that it doesn't grant evasion. I imagine the others would be fine but not really game ruining without protections. Your environment better have good removal and lots of creature though, and not too much in the way of hexproof or unblockable things.

Trampling and death touch creatures will happily take your swords for you

How did that work? I am not much of a Minecraft expert.

Thank you everyone for answering.

I've been running the swords without protection for a while now and they have been fine, although I think people undervalue them in their current state.

Did you sharpie the actual cards? (Please say yes!)

 

[Velrun]

I have 0 experience with the concept yet but my plan is, as always, to use stickers.

That's seems like a safer idea, if you double sleeve it's pretty easy to "decorate" the inner sleeve with a strategically placed sticker.

 

[Aston]

I sharpied over the perfect fits, sorry to disappoint!

How do people feel about:

I'm not sure if it has a place in my cube, but I got this little package stuck in my head:

The idea of Scourge is far more attractive than the actual gameplay. I tried to make it work for a very long time, but no one really bought into it and there were too many hoops to jump through for a not great payoff. It's more cute than effective and often times it was kind of hard to find an opening to set it up in the graveyard AND end up with two bodies you didn't care to sack. Mileage may vary if your environment is lower powered, but I didn't have much luck with it.

 

[sigh]

Yeah basically same story as shamizy. Really wanted it to work, but didn't pan out.

 

[inscho]

That's what I suspected....thanks fellas

Scourge was really good for me - it does need some setup (though that can be as little as 'cast Stitcher's Supplier') but the ability to turn random chaff into a serious threat can't be overlooked. Sometimes you have it with Gravecrawler, Bloodghast, Lingering Souls, Bitterblossom or whatever and never run out of food

I found it anemic but was running very little in the way of token gen. With re-adding Bitterblossom on my mind, Scourge might find its way back in...

e: and let's not forget the synergy with both +1's on Sarkhan, Fireblood!

 

[yan]

its a good alternative if you dont wanna delve away your gy cards
i like it more than tombstalker soulflayer. the setup is a little slower but also more reach

 

[Peter LaCara]

Does she still do what you want in Aristocrats sections? Is she just too clunky these days? Or does Teysa still have what it takes?

 

[Onderzeeboot]

She still wins the cleavage alert award

Love the card, but sacrificing three white creatures us quite an ask.

 

[Rowan_CB]

Never played with Tesya before, but just want to give a shout out to Peter LaCara for actually making posts about cube!

 

[Velrun]

I do not support Aristocrats in white.

What other white Aristocrat cards are there (besides a lot of fodder from tokens nomnom)
