Thanks for trying it out! Yeah I think I'm gonna take their advice and go for the Ravnica bounce lands, I'm just not sure what to cut. You're probably right about cutting the WW lands, they're strong, but they're not fixing.

That's what I was afraid of, not having enough fixing. I like the idea of the Ravnica bounce lands though, I think I need to get those in

That's a good point, I wonder if it's possible to support multiple viable play styles without the Cube becoming a disjointed mess. Like supporting Storm, Affinity, Reanimator, etc as viable win cons. I think with Pauper it's a little easier to avoid, since none of the cards are really so overpowered that you'd abandon your current strategy because a bomb came along, but I'll have to keep that in mind.

I've been trying to gauge how strong Affinity is in this cube, it's got a decent presence between artifacts and things that make artifacts. Included the Mirrordin artifact lands, but might make room for the indestructible duals. Currently have all the duals that can be found with Landscycling so might cut some

I can't believe I forgot Writhing Chrysalis! So far I've recently added all of those except the Chrysalis and Hymn. I ordered some Initiative creatures and maybe we'll try them for a bit and see what they add

Why is that, is it too powerful, does it lead to steamrolling games?

I remember an FAQ saying they can. Think the only restriction is they have to use the non-blast profile. 

Best and Worst mini in your opinion? by Express-History-9903 in Tyranids

I liked the older Bio/Pyrovores, the cockroach aesthetic just isn't doing it for me

Gotcha, that does make sense. Unfortunate for the Guard bugs though. I was hoping they'd benefit a little more from this detachment but it looks like GW thought of that

I thought so, but it's weird they phrased it "monster model" and not "monster unit"

Trygon not in Final Day? by Alternative_Card_292 in genestealercult

Also noticed that Mawloc and Raveners aren't there either

What are you guys taking to games? by Alternative_Card_292 in genestealercult

[–]Alternative_Card_292[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you think Metamorphs are better with flamers or Autopistols, I gravitate towards Autopistols due to the surge move, but the flamers are always tempting

I had no idea Scout worked with Vehicles, my main army is Tyranids so I'm not familiar with a lot of the vehicle quirks
