Feb 3, 2014CommonerCoffee posted a message on Launch Giveaway!My favorite card is Mana Leak. I started playing Magic almost a decade ago with a monoblue without a real win condition; all I really knew was that I liked countering cards. Since then I've definitely come understand Magic better and my taste in decks have shifted to favor more aggressive builds but Mana Leak remains one of my favorite cards. I mostly cube nowadays and I still pick Mana Leak way higher than any reasonable person would. It's very splashable, strong, but still fair. Nothing feels better than having board advantage and mana open for a Mana Leak!Posted in: Announcements

1) Every planeswalker
2) Fading/Vanishing cards like Parallax Wave or Tangle Wire
3) Level up guys like Enclave Cryptologist or Student of Warfare
4) Smokestack?
I don't think there's probably enough interactions in cube but I sure wish there were.
I think cube just has a lot of incidentally good cards now that break symmetry in both directions making Stax a pretty inconsistent deck and effect from my experiences.
I'm a little hesitant about how useful the ability is though since we don't run any dedicated unfair renimator.
Here's my cube list for reference but I'm mostly interested in hearing some stories about how this guy plays in your cubes, if you run him.

Struggling a bit with which one to play for Selesnya and Orzhov.
Given what I have, for Selesnya I'm considering between Razorverge Thicket and Stirring Wildwood
and for Orzhov Concealed Courtyard and Shambling Vent
Orzhov I'm particularly struggling with since WB tends to be quite hungry for 1BB or 1WW on turn 3 and would love to hear some input from others.
What makes you guys like Slime more? Is it the blinking potential, almost always being a 2 for 1, or versatility? What do you feel are some common situations where you plop a Slime and feel good?
I did miss that oh dear, how embarrassing! Moving along.
For those who tried this card, has it stood the test of time for anyone?
1) Field of Ruin vs Tectonic Edge
2) Best 2 drop mana rock after Mind Stone and Coldsteel Heart? Currently running Sphere of the Suns which is quite mediocre.
Bonus if anyone would really like to help me out) I'm doing a little experiment to see how people view the color ranking in my cube. My playgroup has a couple of suspicions on one color being worse than the others but I'm wondering if that's because some of us are a bit myopic with our styles.
Here is my cube and I made a little form here to gather data on how people would rank the colors in this cube. Super curious on this.
