![]() ![]() This is another way in which Black is advantaged, as the other colours cannot really disrupt its recursive elements. I would also try and include more ways to interact with the graveyard: at present, I think only White has some ways to exile cards. I think all of this makes the colour much more powerful than the others: in one of my drafts, I basically rare-drafted Black bombs and ended up with a very respectable control deck. Moreover, Black has multiple repeatable card-advantage tools that require no mana investment. The number of rares is a good proxy to notice this: there are 9 in Black, while Blue (which is on the opposite side of the spectrum) has 3. The biggest issue I see is that Black feels very strong, compared to the other colours. I think you have a very solid list, and I like many of your choices. It's funny how difficult it is to make things look simple I too am a big fan of simplicity, so I appreciate what you are trying to accomplish. I tried a couple drafts, and I liked the list very much! I could switch that to a weaker, but cooler, goblin. Goblin Guide's land reveal ability is annoying.Gingerbrute is useful, but it would be better without the life gain ability and if its flavor was something more badass than a cookie.A bit of block specific cruddy flavor: Hand of Silumgar and Umara Entangler.So I bought the foil, but it's unsurprisingly a bit curled, and as a foil it stands out a bit. ![]() One foil: Confiscate, which is only available in black border and modern frame/rules text in 9ED foil.(Trample rules explanation text also has the p-word) It would be great to eliminate every instance of the p-word, but I think I want to keep this card. Heartfire Immolator is the only card with "planeswalker" in its rules text.Spell Queller is the only card with the words "converted mana cost." It would be cool to have zero of those, but the card is too suitable to cut.Watermarks: the cube has four that would be nice to eliminate.That could work, but it seems a bit too weak for 5 mana. I could do Rambunctious Mutt to replace Syr Alin. I'd like a white utility creature that can deal with enchantments and artifacts to replace Disenchant, but I don't like the options.I'd like to eliminate the two legendary cards, and their hideous borders with them, but I like both cards: Syr Alin, the Lion's Claw and Judith, the Scourge Diva.There are a few other irksome things that aren't going to get fixed right now. I really like Cunning Sparkmage)ĭismissive Pyromancer -> Goblin Chieftain But I'd like to remedy that and support goblins.Ĭunning Sparkmage -> Spikeshot Goblin (Too bad. ![]() Red shouldn't be the color with higher toughness creatures.ī) Prowess Variants: Some "spells matters" cards are "noncreature" while others are "instant or sorcery." This is potentially confusing, so I'm addressing that by removing Weaver of Lightning and Kiln Fiend to standardize around "noncreature."Ĭ) Goblins: I only have three other goblins, so that's why there's no tribal lord. Replacing with Gurmag Swiftwing, which seems versatile enough to help on both offense and defense for some decks.Ī) One Toughness Creatures: I found that each color has around 7 creatures with toughness=1. Kitesail Freebooter has 7 lines of rules text and flavor isn't especially resonant. I've updated a few things in the beginner cube.ĭisenchant is always a sideboard card, and the number of important targets isn't that big. ![]()
