The Tribes of Magic

In this summary post I list the various tribe-specific look ups I have carried.out. There is an intersection between tribes and commander, but I choose to build a tribal commander deck, I will post it via the commander post of posts.

1. Tribes in ISD+RTR Set Standard

Artifact Cube Videos Part 5: Artifact Equipment

Here they are in three videos.

One at CMC = 0 and all others at CMC = 1


These are at CMC = 2


These are at CMC = 3 or 4

Artifact Cube Videos Part 4: Artifact Creatures

Here are most of the artifact creatures in this cube.


All these are at CMC = 4


All these are at CMC = 5


All these are at CMC > 5 (heavy!!!)

Artifact Cube Videos Part 3: Helpers from the Shards of Alara block

I bought a bunch of common Shards of Alara block cards and in that selection came an Esper (White/Blue/Black) selection of artifact creatures and artifacts. Here they are in three videos.



Artifact Cube Videos Part 2: Replicas, Trigons, Shards

Here are additional artifacts currently in this cube.


These are artifacts in the lower Converted Mana Cost (CMC) range.


These are artifacts in the higher CMC range.


Artifact Cube Videos Part 1: Myrs, Golems, Spellbombs

I have joined the new age of you tube and made videos of the cards in the cube that has come out of my Mirrodin fun deck building experiment. The first video has the 15 Myrs that are currently in this cube.



Here are the scans for these 15 cards. I wish there was a legendary artifact Myr.




...and as of this writing I have this lone video in my you tube channel.


Here is a video of the golems and a few colored artifacts.


And here is a video of the spellbombs.

Mirrodin Fun Deckbuilding 15: Add Fifth Dawn Sunburst theme deck

Click here for the previous installment

This deck plays on the Sunburst mechanic, and although it includes only two green cards, and the rest of the cards are artifacts, it lends itself to playing mana in all colors. Here is the promotional sheet that comes with this deck. I somehow missed scanning the side with the deck list.




Here are the green cards.





Here are the artifacts.
