4/5/10 Changes

Undermine in for Wydwen, the Gale that Bites

(that's Justin's remark <3 <3 <3)

Worldwake Manlands in for M10 Duals

These have been AWESOME so far. Sorry I ever doubted you, Lava Horse.

A Shinier Multicolor

If I could I would put every full art card in the cube.

1/30/10 Changes

Worldwake and miscellaneous other stuff.

Comet Storm in for Forked Lightning

Giant Solifuge in for Deus of Calamity

Too many occasions where we could have played the solifuge but not the deus. Oh well.

Gaea's Anthem in for Evolution Charm

River Boa in for Loaming Shaman

Vithian Renegades in for Apocalypse Hydra

Jace, the Mind Sculptor in for Jace Beleren

Kor Aeronaut in for Sigiled Paladin

Pilgrim's Eye in for Darksteel Ingot

Basilisk Collar in for Empyrial Plate

Anger in for Pain Kami

Stroke of Genius in for Opportunity

Abyssal Persecutor in for Phyrexian Plaguelord

Dark Hatchling in for Rise from the Grave

Rhox in for Birds of Paradise

01/08/2010 Changes

Thirst for Knowledge in for Dream Cache

Wydwen, the Biting Gale in for Moroii

... the never played.

Also, the "Canon" pages should all be accurate now, and I copied Joe and marked foils.

7/26/09 Changes

Apocalypse Hydra in for Branching Bolt

Branching Bolt is obviously thing best thing ever in Shards limited, but it just didn't seem to getting it done in the cube, and we've been wanting to try the Hydra out.

And Louis- we've been gradually trading for foils, but especially having all foil commons seems reasonable. I'm sure some things, like the Ravnica duals, will never be foil- they are just super expensive and I'd rather have a real Mana Drain.

7/13/09 Changes

Baru, Fist of Krosa in for Iwamori

Overrun in for Restock

Razia, Boros Archangel in for Firemane Angel

Trying it. Maybe Captain's Manuever would be good too. We'll see.

7/9/09 Changes

Burning-Tree Shaman in for Spellbreaker Behemoth

Obelisk of Alara in for Scroll of Origins

Tidehollow Sculler in for Ghost Council of Orzhova

Rise from the Grave in for Dread Return

Nemesis of Reason in for Wydwen, the Biting Gale

Guardian Seraph in for Cloudchaser Kestrel

Baneslayer Angel in for Genju of the Fields

Guardian of the Guildpact in for Griffin Guide

Briarhorn in for Elephant Guide

Great Sable Stag in for Albino Troll

Acidic Slime in for Timbermare

Ant Queen in for Mycoloth

Juggernaut in for Deathrender

Djinn of Wishes in for Morphling

Roc of Kher Ridge in for Mogg Fanatic

Fork in for Goblin Assault

Necrogenesis in for Grave-Shell Scarab

Master of the Wild Hunt in for Heartwood Storyteller

Caldera Hellion in for Sulpheric Blast

Opportunity in for Deep Analysis

5/4/09 Changes

Recurring Nightmare in for Skinthinner

I'm so excited.

Miraculous Recovery in for Blinding Beam

Less conditional, you know? And SO RAD.

Death Grasp in for Tidehollow Sculler

In the "answers" section:

Loaming Shaman in for Cradle Guard

Relic of Progenitus in for Juggernaut

Dude just doesn't get played.

Scrabbling Claws in for Sun Droplet

Thoughts!

Recurring Nightmare

I keep reading about people taking this out of their cubes for being too good.
I could see taking out Thoughtseize or Skinthinner.

Miraculous Recovery

Dunno, seems nice.

Bituminous Blast for Shambling Remains

??
It's been good so far in Shards, and I worry that black/red creatures that can't block isn't a very viable archetype.

As Justin pointed out, we should probably put in some graveyard removal stuff, since right now it is is Stonecloaker and Stonecloaker. Maybe Loaming Shaman for Cradle Guard, and an artifact- Relic of Progenitus, or Tormod's Crypt?

And finally, how about Death Grasp for Tidehollow Sculler? I like the sculler lots, but Death Grasp is like the ability from P-Command that wins games, you know?

4/26/09 Changes

Wall of Denial in for Sky Spirit

Qasali Pridemage in for Watchwolf

Upgrade like whoa.

Behemoth Sledge in for Knight of the Reliquary

Dauntless Escort in for Saffi Eriksdotter

Mycoid Shepherd in for Phantom Nishoba

I'm excited to get this a little (a lot?) lower-end.

Soul Manipulation in for Blizzard Specter

Short little foray into the cube, sorry buddy.

Arashi, the Sky Asunder in for Krosan Tusker

If you are going to be overcosted AND not trample, at least cycle for colorless or something, mmkay?

Bloodbraid Elf in for Savage Twister

Spellbreaker Behemoth in for Burning-Tree Shaman

Maelstrom Pulse in for Nath of the Gilt-Leaf

Spellbound Dragon in for Izzet Chronarch

Thraximundar in for Grixis Charm

Uril, the Miststalker in for Meglonoth

Empyrial Archangel in for Rafiq of the Many

Sphinx of the Steel Wind in for Tower Gargoyle

4/15/09 Changes

foil Blizzard Specter in for Recoil

It's my blog and I'll write what I want.

3/23/09 Changes

Jace Beleren in for Equilibrium

Adamaro, First to Desire in for Warbreak Trumpeter

Knollspine Invocation in for In the Web of War

Civic Wayfinder in for Elvish Warrior

Sakashima the Imposter in for Crookclaw Transmuter

Sky Spirit in for Azorius First Wing

Iridescent Angel in for Sky Hussar

Ghastlord of Fugue in for Glen Elendra Liege

3/22/09 Changes

White

Mirror Entity in for Radiant's Judgement

Reveillark in for Crovax, Ascendant Hero

We've been wanting to find a place for the Reveillark, and Crovax is just kind of difficult in a two color deck.

Soltari Champion in for Soltari Monk

We didn't know this card existed! We could have replaced Pianna, but that seemed silly.

Sarkhan Vol in for Stormbind

Again, I've been complaining about this forever.

3/15/09 Changes

Executioner's Capsule in for Pewter Golem

We wanted a black-aligned artifact that was better, since some of the others (Shackles, Leonin Sun Standard) are so rad. This is a little bit of a hack, but technically it works.

Pyrite Spellbomb in for Goblin Replica

Again, a better color-aligned artifact

Corpse Dance in for Grim Harvest

Yep, this is exciting and all thanks to seeing it on Wizard's cube list.

Nath of the Gilt-Leaf in for Vulturous Zombie

Just trying something different and maybe with a little more impact.
