I don't like UB, and would prefer a "default" to no UB. Then bring in the UB cards for relevant theme weeks.
I'm definitely less inclined to watch the videos that are focused on UB stuff, but part of it is the over-exposure. If it was a novelty, it wouldn't be as tedious.

One of my first commander games was with a Hazezon deck using Gaea's Cradle. That, uh, was probably a mistake.

It's a nice design as a "synergizes with hellbent" card that doesn't say "hellbent" on it. The kind of thing I like to see from a common.

Yeah I'm not really playing along with it, but we'll see as the weekend goes.

Mostly just that he hasn't been doing any public appearances today and doesn't have any scheduled over the weekend.

Couldn't agree more. The whole point of "outside-the-game" cards is they get cards from outside the game. We let ourselves, as a community, get bamboozled by competitive play into forgetting how these cards are actually worded.

Would it die if you ticked it down to zero?

Option one is pretty nice

The artist helped me out in a game jam once - glad to see his game is being well-received!

Having a rule invites challenges to the rule, which may backfire, but I'm genuinely curious about how's it'll be received. I've worked on projects in the past where we try to help litigate the social contract in multiplayer games but it's not a common problem and it'd be cool if Wotc made progress.

I've just replaced all my artifacts with sol rings.

It would be funny if the background was just a little higher with short character scenes.

This works pretty well!

The Discord poll resulting in this cube is the worst outcome of democracy this year.

My naive pick was Enduring Innocence, it's a pretty powerful synergy piece in most environments. Looking briefly at the list makes me less sure, but the floor is high enough anyway.

No I actually WANT people to make cubes.

Loved seeing you bring Un-cards to a show like this.
