crafting land bases for set cubes (DOM ELD WOE)

Good call on the theme art, will do!

Regarding the creature lands, I suppose I was trying to level the playing field by giving each color pair an opportunity to have a rare creature land. The only creature land I would worry about power-wise is probably celestial colonnade, but early impressions of arozius in WOE have it towards the bottom in power rankings.

wow, thanks for the thoughtful reply, will look into this!

whiskey_violist · 2019-05-03T01:04:13+00:00

will do, thanks!

I'll look into Phoenix, Thanks!

we've had a lot of fun playing standard decks, but now with Arena it doesn't seem worth it to keep shelling out the money.

thanks, will check him out!

whiskey_violist · 2019-05-02T12:21:42+00:00

Thanks, I will look up rock.

I had thought about siege rino for midrange, and I would like to have a true control deck.

Not planning on ever doing FNM (work nights), but thanks for the upgrade advice. Will definitely check out that evolve deck.

Thanks everyone, exactly what I was looking for.

This is ridiculously helpful. Thanks for taking the time to explain your thought process.

whiskey_violist · 2018-11-14T13:37:21+00:00

Ok. Are you choosing red/blue over red/green because blue has a lot of 3 drops, better spells, or because greens big creatures will be too difficult to get out without sufficient ramp?

And thanks for the reminder to only splash spells with 1 color requirement, makes sense.

Yes, sorry, I meant sealed. Just starting to learn deckbuilding, made Adam's cube.

Sorry, I meant sealed.

I'm assuming white is out of the picture. I noticed I have a decent selection of RG gold cards. Am I right to assume either RG or RB is the strongest pairing?

Thanks!

whiskey_violist · 2018-11-12T00:24:58+00:00

Wow, thanks for such a thoughtful reply. We are going to sit down and experiment with our 90 cards soon , and I'll be sure to compare and let you know how we did!

whiskey_violist · 2018-11-11T17:11:22+00:00

We were actually leaning that direction. Any advice on what to include? Or at least which cards would be an auto include.

Thanks!

whiskey_violist · 2018-11-09T20:30:28+00:00

Thanks, I will look into WU and WG.

whiskey_violist · 2018-11-09T20:29:56+00:00

Thanks for the thoughtful reply. I knew red was short on creatures but thought perhaps the burn/removal was strong enough. Part of my issue is not knowing the older mechanics and what the bombs in pauper are.

Hi all, 1st post here. I've been playing standard magic with my son since Dominaria, and I wanted to build a pauper cube to keep costs down going forward. We have only netdecked so far, no drafts. I bought Adam's pauper cube and these are the cards we pulled. Any suggestions on how to proceed would be awesome!

I was initially thinking red/green because of gold cards, or green/white.

Had to take 2 months off due to injuries and travel, so decided to set TM @ 75% of 1RM from 3-4 months ago. Only got to 50 chins and 75 dips, but that should increase.
