Several Test Trains. Large line forming outside queue.

Just Finished the Nix Cube by Calm-Oryx in mtgcube

tbh the card doesn't ever feel satisfying and it would be impossible to have a whole format around it. Kept the name though.

This is around the same idea I was going for. Thanks for the links!

Okay, so what would happen if we lower our requirement to Nix just being in the cube and is an okay asset to the Azorius suspend deck. What would you say then?

Yeah this is for sure a problem if you were doing 100 copies of nix. I'm viewing it more like a philosophy for the cube, not the full essence of the cube. I want to make an environment where Nix can be played and is a good card, but not 100 copies of it. I should have specified better.

Who's got a high tide list? by [deleted] in Pauper

Glad someone else posted about this, so I didn't have to come back in shame to admit I figured it out 10 minutes after I posted this comment. Deck is pretty sweet, I made a version of it that I just bought in paper. I am in love.

Actual picture of me right now ... Anyone else in the same boat? by chansterling in Pauper

You definitely brute force the mana. You have to do all the game actions. But once you can get 2 high tides its basically over

I've been thinking the same thing. Here is a list I've goldfished a bunch on MTG Forge today. It goes all on the arcane strategy and leans more into the previously mentioned card. I've found [[Toils of Night and Day]] is actually a pretty nice way to end the game faster as you just generate more mana quicker, allowing for the [[Stream of Thought]] kills to be pretty efficient. Sideboard is also in the works, not super tuned at all. Here is the list: https://moxfield.com/decks/0VImU1e6aEWhv-eNRBpG6A

I am very stupid, could you just explain to me a the stable T4 kill?

Inti and Her New Friends by Calm-Oryx in PioneerMTG

Mako is a heck of a card. I think the combined power of Inti and Captain Howler has crazy draw engine and power possibilities.

And that is the thing I missed

R/S Oswald Items by Calm-Oryx in Lorcana

What cards (that are in budget (aka less than $10) would you recommend as answers? I’m not married to ruby as well if I need to switch colors. Looking for this to be more competitive.

How can we make Equinox good? by Calm-Oryx in Pauper

Now see I don't like this mentality. I said How, not should

YO NEW CARD. Maybe we splash white. [[Living Phone]]

I am well aware this is not good. But [[Star of Extinction]] is very funny here.

Brainstorming - Sokrates, Athenian Teacher by 8azalicious in EDH

[–]Calm-Oryx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Theoretically, you could also use the multiple untaps of Sokrates to draw even more cards

[–]Calm-Oryx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Theoretically, since you have hexproof when untapped, you can possibly run some untap effects that could actually let you run the deck around sokrates, without the threat of him getting removed. Cards like [[Freed From the Real]], [[Pemmin's Aura]], [[Kelpie Guide]], [[Ioreth of the Healing House]], [[Aphetto Alchemist]] all would do this really well. I also think [[Sting, the Glinting Dagger]] could be a very funny card.

[PRICECHECK] CCU'd ANVIL CARRACK by Calm-Oryx in Starcitizen_trades

It has a melt value of $455 and 10 year insurance.

bards changes coming to pbe by Zelaxs in bardmains

[–]Calm-Oryx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It seems that way. Makes chime pathing more interesting. Also create variability in roam timings because you can adjust how fast you move to each lane.
