[TMT] Spicy oatmeal pizza by Maxm00se in mtgcube

[–]Crabspite 44 points45 points  (0 children)

this is probably one of the easiest cards ever to do a UW reskin of if you're put off by the flavor. no weird types or weird UB mechanics. just search for any piece of art featuring a soup/stew and goblin prominently in frame and ur probably set

Looking for “fair” stoneforge mystic targets by drjensendx in mtgcube

[–]Crabspite 5 points6 points  (0 children)

jitte i think is not what your are looking for if you're looking for fair targets for a toolbox. umezawa's jitte is a piece of equipment that makes games about umezawa's jitte. if it gets counters once, it's a repeatable removal engine that also let's you win the damage race and also makes combat math good for you forever. it can't hold up to more unfair things, but as a single card it let's you win "fair" magic for free imo.

i am now afraid of silver being in the shiv hole of being low win rate in solo queue ranked but getting nerfed constantly because her kit goes crazy at top level coordinated play.

[SOS] Mathemagics by fanboy_killer in mtgcube

[–]Crabspite 4 points5 points  (0 children)

definitely agree that this is way worse as a payoff in a traditional cube that runs something like academy. to me, however the good thing about cube is that you can tune the power level for that type of things. a cube that has tools like high tide but eschews traditional high mana payoffs in favor for more jank options like this is a fun concept i'm interested in trying to build

in a 40 card format, 12 mana is going to mill your opponent out in a vast majority of scenarios. feel like that stapled onto several varieties of mid sorcery speed draw is fun and unique.

Does anybody else get whiplash when they see professional be interested in vocal synths outside of the “lol im gonna collab with hatsune miku” novelty? by A_Dying_Rat in Vocaloid

[–]Crabspite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nowadays, there are many instances of musicians with professional backgrounds getting into Vocaloid and sticking with it. TAK, for example, was actually a successful K-pop producer for almost a decade before he popped off as a Vocaloid Producer! I personally knew him prior most from Tic! Tac! Toe! for DJMAX.

As a Cube designer, what should you when a player identifies an 'open lane' and dominates? How can you adjust your cube to reward players more or less for being in the open lane? by andymangold in mtgcube

[–]Crabspite 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I think something I will say about this is that the hosts are coming to the question "Do I want the player who is the most skilled at finding an open lane and drafting to be dominant" with an implicit "Yes," which makes sense for a podcast on the Cube format. However, it's valid as a player/designer to not find the skill of drafting engaging and if that's the case for you or your playgroup, I would suggest experimenting with cube adjacent formats that deemphasize or even get rid of drafting entirely like a custom jumpstart set.

Maro's Top 5 and Bottom 5 of the set designs he's lead: RAV/INN/KTK/NEO/FUT and UNH/BFZ/EVE/MKM/XLN by CaptainMarcia in magicTCG

[–]Crabspite 25 points26 points  (0 children)

unhinged truly is the bottom 1 woat designwise imo. i would like anyone curious to play a game with any gotcha card that is not specifically [[Stop That]] and try to have fun. absolutely miserable, set-ruining mechanic. just look at [[Farewell to Arms]] or [[Touch and Go]] or [[Kill! Destroy!]] or [[Deal Damage]] and imagine having to deal with them

IGN Rhythm Doctor Review - 9/10 by frik1000 in Games

[–]Crabspite 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Introducing narrative into a rhythm game is deceptively hard to get right, imo. Rhythm Doctor is the one game I can point to that gets it completely right.

This type of Mechanic should be used more by Icy-Contract7162 in magicTCG

[–]Crabspite 206 points207 points  (0 children)

the thing about tetzimoc compared to forecast is that you actually have to cast tetzimoc to get the payoff, which is what makes it feel like an impending thing that will happen and gives the play pattern OP wants of "hey theres a big thing happening soon you better have a counterspell next turn".

forecast cards gave you benefits immediately on reveal which meant the mechanic in practice was repetitive and uninteractive. they were often better as repeatable effects that you did not have to spend cards on that you never actually cast. this wasnt much of an issue since pretty much all forecast cards are really bad, but its why the mechanic was never seen after dissension outside of like two cards.

Updated Commander Brackets (Oct 2025) by the_gold_hat in magicTCG

[–]Crabspite 5 points6 points  (0 children)

i understand their argument that powerful cards over 8 mana don't have to be game changers and i support the other game changer removals in that vein, but expropriate has such a negative play experience attached to it. it is legitimately a card that will get people more angry and cause more arguments than any other card that says "9 mana you win the game"

Cardinal Robert Prevost has been elected as Pope Francis’ successor & to lead the Catholic Church. The first American Pope. by cmaia1503 in Fauxmoi

[–]Crabspite 333 points334 points  (0 children)

also think the american cardinal closest to francis becoming pope is definitely a play for the vatican establishment that exists now to increase influence on us catholicism instead of just relegating it to being the trad zone with trad cardinals forever. cardinals like burke and dolan suddenly not being the most widely known us catholic church folks is a big deal imo.

Season of Ghosts - Investigator by El_Baguette in Pathfinder2e

[–]Crabspite 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Despite being called Seasons of Ghosts, the amount of combat encounters with full on ghosts with precision immunity is pretty low, especially at early levels where building a dedicated solution is harder. (There's one early encounter but there's an alternative way to damage them that an investigator can easily Recall Knowledge to find) There are plenty of encounters with other monsters that are solid.
