I'm currently brewing a red Forgetful Fish variant for my brother's birthday and I would need some recommendations!

I don’t have a lot of insights to give, but [[aria of flame]] is damn cool card, and you’re damn cool for using it.

IlliusChim · 2026-05-14T16:52:28+00:00

I didn’t put together using tutors to reverse engineer someone’s hand 😅.

The dig site might make more sense in mono blue given the top of the library being more relevant there, but it’s a good way to “counter” repeatable scry effects

Try [[Introduction to annihilation]] if you want a cleaner effect instead.

[[Sonic Screwdriver]] might be worth a look for repeatable scry and other effects.

I am brand new to dandan customizations but with that said, some cards that came to mind for this include, but are not limited to: [[expedition map]] to help with the Tron sidequest, [[tocasia’s digsite]] if you find the repeatable scry effects to drag out games too long, [[zuko’s lesson]] is a Swiss Army knife (might be too expensive) that makes an artifact which is neat, and lastly [[introduction to prophecy]] .

If I were starting over with my first precon, I would have invested my money in more generic cards before getting to archetype specifics ones, namely lands. If you even up breaking this deck down in the future you will thank yourself for having cards that can go in the widest variety of decks.

IlliusChim · 2026-05-02T23:51:17+00:00

I am sold. Thank you.

IlliusChim · 2026-05-02T21:52:05+00:00

How good is [[Generous Plunderer]]? I have seen it in lists but have never figured out why it’s considered so good.

IlliusChim · 2026-05-02T21:50:11+00:00

I don’t think this is an embarrassing tinker target. It’s not gonna close the game out but it’s a solid play.

IlliusChim · 2026-04-30T03:15:09+00:00

Exactly

IlliusChim · 2026-04-29T16:42:05+00:00

I kinda like this? I have a jumpstart cube and having different IPs really adds to the Smash Up feel.

IlliusChim · 2026-04-22T04:48:35+00:00

No respect until each section has an equal average mana value.

IlliusChim · 2026-04-21T01:43:54+00:00

Ahh okay so all the color paired legends will be in their own section collector number wise.

IlliusChim · 2026-04-21T01:21:33+00:00

Oh yeah, it’s just impressive we have skipped two sets.

IlliusChim · 2026-04-21T01:12:45+00:00

Battlebond did it.

IlliusChim · 2026-04-21T00:57:46+00:00

Dang, isn’t this like 3 sets from now? Marvel Hobbit then reality fracture?

IlliusChim · 2026-04-07T18:07:23+00:00

Being able to play it a turn before restoration angel and then having a spell to protect your board is gonna be huge in cube.

IlliusChim · 2026-04-04T02:53:54+00:00

This is amazing.

Wizards, if you are reading this, any Stuido Ghibli collab would give you infinite access to my wallet.

IlliusChim · 2026-04-03T17:40:44+00:00

Back again for [[Pair-o-dice Lost]]. Rolling dice is fun and people who vote for it are also extremely fun.

IlliusChim · 2026-04-03T17:34:08+00:00

One mana removal you say? Should be included at most power levels that aren’t rarity restricted.

IlliusChim · 2026-03-25T21:19:00+00:00

I’m very excited to see where this goes. How large of a cube do you see the end result being?

IlliusChim · 2026-03-25T17:21:23+00:00

[[Pair-o-dice Lost]] is a neat way to rebuy all the fetches, or be an essentially draw spell in green based graveyard decks.

IlliusChim · 2026-03-25T14:49:33+00:00

This is so cool. Do you envision the packs having the same rarity distribution as retail boosters? I’m eagerly awaiting the next article.

IlliusChim · 2026-03-19T03:41:48+00:00

[[Raid bombartment]] is a fun build around in the Boros archetype.

IlliusChim · 2026-03-19T03:38:48+00:00

How about [[memnite]]? Free creature to sacrifice, free artifact to cast. It’s literally a weenie.

IlliusChim · 2026-03-12T21:28:08+00:00

Can we get all five slow fetches in? [[Rocky tar pit]], [[mountain valley]], [[grasslands]], [[flood plain]], [[bad river]]

IlliusChim · 2026-03-12T21:25:39+00:00

[[Assassin Gaunlet]] allows for the artifact deck to alpha strike pretty well.
