Phyrexia: All Will be One Quick hits

Posted on February 17, 2023February 19, 2023 by omniczech

White Solset: Toxic can be distracting here, but for aggro, duelist can swing confidently against most colors for quite a while. Omni: I think this is one of the better bears with upside for just turning things sideways. Agree on the toxic being additive distraction. Phizzled: I’m mentally allergic to toxic, just because it’s something…

Brother’s War/Warhammer 40K Quick Hits

Posted on November 30, 2022December 1, 2022 by omniczech

White Phizzled: I can’t decide which part of the card people like most.  If it was a 2/2 flyer for 2W, we’d have plenty of choices. If the win case is getting the 1/1 flyer and a card, remains the gold standard and the only unconditional version. But, even in cube, hitting a plains or…

Dominaria United Quick Hits

Posted on September 9, 2022 by omniczech

A quick note to start things off, we’re going to have off color kicker cards in the gold section. We’ve talked at length about these as “not really gold cards” on the discord at length, but this is a question of convenience. White Omniczech: Loosely comparable to , this is a neat option, I know…

2X2 Quick Hits

Posted on July 6, 2022July 7, 2022 by omniczech

White Omniczech: well the trend of 3 mana 2 power white cards that draw has found its ultimate variation for now. While this is definitely limited in what it can get, the body is nicer and I expect this will be well enough liked. Neveron: In the Baldur’s Gate review, I wrote that they kept…

CLB Quick Hits

Posted on June 16, 2022June 16, 2022 by omniczech

Omniczech: We’ve pulled these out as they’re a class of card that is a very large power level anomaly the likes of which we haven’t seen since Conspiracy 2, a set I can barely believe is six years old. The initiative is reminiscent of the monarchy but with a slightly more aggressive, board impacting effect,…

SNC Update

Posted on May 21, 2022October 5, 2022 by omniczech

Just in time for Commander Legends 2: Electric Boogaloo, we’ve got an update for Streets of New Capenna! Color In Out New Cards White was an instant hit with the community, and it’s not hard to see why. With Priest of Ancient Lore in the cube already, this is just a better card. Riftwatcher represents…

Streets of New Capenna Quick Hits

Posted on April 25, 2022April 28, 2022 by omniczech

Mechanics Connive – When a trigger occurs, draw a card, discard a card, and put a +1/+1 counter on the creature with connive.   We only get the counter if a non-land card is discarded. Casualty – As a spell is cast, if you sacrifice creature with power greater than the casualty cost to copy the…

NEO/VOW/MID Update

Posted on March 12, 2022March 13, 2022 by omniczech

Three whole sets since the last update, and we’re back! After several months of silence and literally doubling the size of the Pauper Cube Committee, your patience is being rewarded. Color In Out White has failed its trial period at this point. Having a defender with a passive battle cry didn’t work out as well…

Pauper Cube Committee Update and expansion

Posted on February 28, 2022March 1, 2022 by omniczech

Two and a half years ago, Adam Styborski stepped down as the maintainer of the pauper cube list and ushered in the Pauper Cube Committee. Today we welcome three new additions to the committee. This decision comes as we’re hoping to bring new perspectives to the cube and also hopefully avoid some of the delays…
