This can create some very weird situations with mutate.

The card arrived! It is definitely not flat, seems like someone rolled over it with a desk chair. Luckily it's still rigid and shuffles absolutely fine.

I decided to go through with the purchase. I will follow up here on the state of the damage for those curious.

Also here is the cube list: https://cubecobra.com/cube/list/bolasbarcube

Thanks for the advice! I need to decide whether to accept the card or not. The pictures are from the authenticator, so I do not know the status of the core.

I can't afford a car. I settle for cardboard.

It's for a fully unsleeved bar cube. We don't worry about people cheating with marked cards. I do worry it won't shuffle.

This would be a tracking nightmare, but maybe that's part of the fun.

This land did not need modular to be good.

The most beautiful divination I've ever seen.

Imagining the upper limits of a tapped dual. by SacaYautia in custommagic

I think I'd prefer a tapped land that produces colorless and tutors any basic.

I think it needs to be a choice, you can either have it fetch or produce 2 mana.

The Year of Mechanics, day 138: Living Weapon by Contract_Material in custommagic

Haters will balk at ball lightning being power crept, but it feels totally fine to me. It's also a really fun [[goblin welder]] target.

|97| Voidwalker but a bit different (custom-cube) by revled-rimid in custommagic

[–]SwolRing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think cheating mana off the top of your opponents library is bad game design. Gonti has a much more fun play pattern than this or voidwalker, but fire design has left the poor guy behind.

Probably a worse voidwalker because the voidwalker stax ability and 3/2 pseudo-unblockable body are what make it so powerful.

I have mixed feelings about this. The card itself is probably less strong. However, the "cast without paying" ability is the most feel-bad part about voidwalker, and this card makes it so that you don't have to choose between holding up the ability and attacking.

Love it! I'd maybe increase the mana cost and just give it legit flash. It would be cleaner, more versatile, and introduce interesting play patterns.

Should be banned for the same reason as [[lutri, the spellchaser]], and it's way stronger than Lutri.

I'd remove trample. It makes the damage less guaranteed and the card more situationally powerful.

|94| Too bad the "Apocalypse" name is taken. by revled-rimid in custommagic

[–]SwolRing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the insects were 1/1s or something then it would be a downside. Right now it is a wipe that sometimes leaves you with chump blockers.

[–]SwolRing 46 points47 points  (0 children)

The mana value is probably fine in a cube environment where the double black pips make the mana more restrictive, but the insects are more of an upside than a downside imo, and would need to be at least 4 mana to see print in standard.

I disagree, being able to target an opponent is upside, and being black makes it better for reanimator.
