Feb 5, 2014Yoishan posted a message on EDH: Yeva, Nature's HeraldYeva is a lot of fun, I love some of the choices you put in are great pieces. I was curious though, would Erratic Portal fit? With all the ETB effects that sounds like an amazing card to put in with Yeva!Posted in: klducks Blog

Feb 3, 2014Yoishan posted a message on Launch Giveaway!My favorite card is Rhox though not the most impressive card by any means it was one of my favorites. It was my first promo from the 6th edition starter set I bought which was my first ever set of magic cards. I wish he was a bit stronger so I could sneak him into an EDH. It also started me on my love for Green as the color for awesome creatures :).Posted in: Announcements

With temple gone the best an Eldrazi player would most likely could do is Matter Reshaper or Thought-knot BUT would require a SSG AND a colorless source, the matter reshaper just needs a colorless source but is much more fair. Even if you play the Urborg with eye out and get the mythical 4 mana out of Eye and Urborg, you cannot play any of the REALLY heavy hitters, and as I recall most Eldrazi decks don't really touch the Wasteland Strangler anymore, which doesn't do much without some form of exile. Before we got TKS, reality smasher, and mimic the Black White Eldrazi decks were powerful but not a Menance, I would love to see them go back to that power level.
Those thinking Tron would get the axe for Eldrazi's sins seems very unlikely and from most of the Bannings I have witness Wizards tries their hardest to only hurt a single archetype at the time, like when Eggs was hit, they made sure to hit Second Sunrise not Faith's Reward. Regardless the outcome I hope they unban some cards, I believe Stoneforge probably would be fine, there are a lot of 4/5 and 5/5 in the format that can deal with the Batterskull, Tasigur and Zombie Fish. I would love to see Bloodbraid but I doubt it, as stated before K-command is stupid good and being able to BB into it would be disgusting.
I still think Marit Lage is the best bet, I really really doubt Emrakul would show up this early and there WOULD be spawn, which we have no emphasis of. I believe Nahiri was corrupted by Marit Lage due to whatever Sorin did to her, that he didn't want to reveal to Ugin. That Nahiri is channeling all of the plane's mana to one convergent point of Marit Lage's prison to release her. Marit Lage could very easily be Sea God that the vampires used to worship.
Nahri messing with the planes mana is causing Innistrad's deep dark secret that is resting to awaken and mess with the plane in a multiple of ways, in a way to destroy it, to cause plane wide destruction the same that happened to Zendikar. It was said that Marit Lage's dreams could effect reality, so what about her will?
"Deathgrowth Glade enters the battlefield tapped
Whenever a creature dies put a +1/+1 counter on Deathgrowth Glade
T: Add B or G to your mana pool
BG: Deathgrowth Glade becomes a 0/0 Elemental creature that's still a land until end of turn."
Powered: No.
Power-Level: My brother and I tried to achieve a power level somewhere between Legacy and Modern, there are plenty of archetypes from each.
Color Balance: Yes, but we don't count cards with off color indication
Special: Though rarity isn't really divided up evenly, each color has a "super mythic" these are cards my Brother and I consider are incredibly powerful cards that are just incredibly powerful for the limited format of this cube, allowing incredibly powerful build around strategies and are:
Green: Natural Order
White: Balance
Blue: Dream halls
Black: Reoccurring Nightmare
Red: Sneak Attack

I am still working on Cube Tutor to create the boosters for draft the way I set up the packs for drafting, which is: 2 of each mono color, 2 2-color, 1 tri-four-or-five color, 1 colorless, 1 land. Right now it is set up for everything but multicolor.
Would love feed back, we are currently setting up for updates for Origins. Currently we have done White, Blue, and Black but still want to add the Transform planeswalkers.
I really like these and would like some that are somewhat sturdy they are the perfect size for my EDH decks and fits great in my backpack.
If commander 2015 needs fetches to be a selling point then I fear greatly for those decks and the health of commander as a supported format from wizards.
But really riot? We just got allied fetches rather recently, thoughtsieze reprinted, mm2 (which still not a huge fan of but it did bring the prices down on a lot of things), origins and Dragons brought a lot of great things to modern. It will probably be soon, but seeesh like I have seen less whining on the WoW forums...
I think Lili has the most potential in modern where her neg is incredibly relevant able to bring back a goyf or bob or voice or ooze to protect her or just be value, she is also incredibly easy to flip in certain decks and leaves behind a zombie just for SnG
I honestly like Life from the Loam a little better as it is greatly more resilient to hate, it cannot be abrupt decayed and making me discard it can actually help me. The Dredge part was actually more useful than i thought it would be in a match up I was worried about hate but instead it filled my hand which saved me against an esper charm which was trying to get me to discard my Emrakul so i couldn't win.
I feel the fact that it can retrieve more than just one land and can be reused if needed, the dredge return is really easy with all our eggs. Funny thing he didn't use it as anti hate tech but used it to try to get a psuedo strip mine lock on his opponent which relied on his lands quite a lot.
All is Dust wouldn't be a great all out replacement for Pyroclasm. Pyroclasm is incredibly useful against Affinity which All is Dust is useless against, not to mention sometimes you need to have them out early, if your opponent is playing hate bears a pyroclasm could cost 3 maybe but most likely annihilate his entire board, I had hate bears bring in Gaddek Taeg (or w/e) against me which would of made All is Dust impossible to cast.
