    yeah , exiling seems rly a bit to strong , but at random is a bit hard i think..
    maybe , like i said , instead of drawing you can pick a land. that way , you can play your hand , but are limited in the option if you dont draw more.

    but that was with 5 colour random deck to test it didnt worked out so well , cause i was running out of option to soon and not the right mana.

    Exiling the card you were going to play this turn should immediately make that a bad game experience, and not a good choice for a format
    your not exiling the card your about to play , you exile the card you cant use now or the next turn/s. but its up to you what you exil , to get a basic land instead.



    You misunderstand.
    I was responding to Humphry's suggestion to exile the card at random from your hand. I think it's a terrible idea because you would sometimes randomly exile the card you were about to cast.


    oh sry my bad , yes , exiling random cards can screw you up.

    im just looking for a format , without the rng of mana drawing.

    for me , MTG is all about fun and its just frustrating to draw 3-4 lands in a row not a single land.
    "well , then your deck istn well balanced , mana curve ....."

    it doesnt matter , how good your deck is balanced , it will happen to everyone, thats why i try to cut that part out.

    but we found a big problem , rush / burn / aggro decks are way to strong and control / combo / and other decks have a hard time to deal with them.

    yes , but still , if you build your deck , the problem with the LAND drawing is a problem and even PRO players cant remove that rng.

    hmm , i tested with skipping the draw phase and get a land. the problem was, your missing out option early on , exile will cut that out.

    very interesting =)

    yes but the problem for us is , i build my cube with 360 cards and we play with 3 people , sometimes 4 and i have mana sink and so on but like i said , its only a test and it worked out pretty good.

    maybe have to test more , but thx for your advice, the exile part sound good.

    edit: tried 300 cards cube but didnt liked it , had to remove to many cards.

    Screwless Mana: have to test it , but it looks , at first , a bit confusing with the 2 deck and the rules. i wanted something very simple , like "mine" but like you , havent tested eunogh. but thx for your tip , at least there are people out here who also testing new things =)

    and i dont want to change my cube to much

    i created a cube, for my friends and myself and we have a lot of fun and are looking for new "playstyles?"

    i know its a card game luck and rng is still invovable but we tried something

    instead of basicland cards (or maybe no lands at all in cube) we play without them in the deck.

    we start with 6 cards and draw at the beginning or we can choose a land.

    what do you think? even more unbalanced? still the same rng? we havent tested enough, but the problem was , we just picked random cards and we had like a 5 colour deck and the problem was , we havent the right colour / mana at the right time.

    maybe it all change , when you have only 2/3 colours or even Mono.

    what do you think? are there other playstyles to lower the moments "damn only lands on hand" - "last 5 turn i drawed 5 land cards" and so on?

    (sry for my english)
