I should put this card in more cubes

Would still love to play it some day!

And had to shout out @hardcasting.bsky.social for letting me unlock the potential of breaking singleton with this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=W-9m...

I made a video about my new cube! Am I trying to get a reputation for degeneracy in #mtgcube? Perhaps... youtu.be/quNyDNnrPmM

I got into Magic 6 years ago and even I'm tempted to build a cube where Psychatog is the best card, it's so cool

Very possibly, it's just randomly distributed on token backs along with the advertisements.

010

Jakob J. Kamminga @rhythmicstudy.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

I've checked my MH2 tokens and I cannot find a pattern. Some 4/4 Beasts have it on the back, but others don't.

3. And a consequence of that is that cards like Call of the Herd really shine, even in the face of ridiculous shit. All in all, mostly just a vibes thing but there are some interesting gameplay implications

000

Jakob J. Kamminga @rhythmicstudy.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

Sorry for the late reply. There's a couple of things. 1. It's a design restriction which forces me to look at other cards, and helps guide the design and branding. 2. Tokens are weaker than creatures, giving more room for some of the decks I want to support.

2-0 and a bye Doom Foretold deck in Kind of Magic! Really cool deck and seems to be strong here. #mtgcube

Jakob J. Kamminga @rhythmicstudy.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

Excited to premiere my new cube on Saturday! This is Kind of Magic, my singleton breaking take on a creatureless #mtgcube cubecobra.com/cube/list/it...

More observations about the French. No. 5: they understand style. Not as in, they copy the fashion ads. As in, they have a sense of it, how it complements one's character, and what it adds to life to look the part. I've seen homeless people looking fly as hell.

000

Jakob J. Kamminga @rhythmicstudy.bsky.social · 18/09/2026

Don't stop! It's about the journey not the destination.

000

Jakob J. Kamminga @rhythmicstudy.bsky.social · 18/09/2026

Really? Well in that case I still wouldn't recommend breathing it in 😅

011

Jakob J. Kamminga @rhythmicstudy.bsky.social · 18/09/2026

No. 3: They seem to love coffee, but they don't know how to spell or make espresso. The only way they can fix it is with so much milk and cacao powder the coffee is nowhere to be found.

000

Jakob J. Kamminga @rhythmicstudy.bsky.social · 18/09/2026

No. 2: they are romantic about some very minor stuff. Like putting fruit and vegetables in paper bags, even though plastic would be much more practical. Makes life slightly more annoying sometimes but a lot more aesthetic.

000

Jakob J. Kamminga @rhythmicstudy.bsky.social · 18/09/2026

I'm on vacation and making some observations on the French. No. 1: they are still convinced smoking is cool and not disgusting. Their sense of style trumps their sense of health and smell in public places.

My two favourite Magic sets. 30th Anniversary Edition and the Zeta set. The two great waves of #mtg players realising they can just turn on the printer.

010

Jakob J. Kamminga @rhythmicstudy.bsky.social · 05/09/2026

I would have to Google it. I have played this set's prerelease but I can't recall the exact rules text. Would not include it if I expected a newer player to ever play the cube.

Jakob J. Kamminga @rhythmicstudy.bsky.social · 03/09/2026

You will come out wiser and stronger out the other end, I promise. The fact that you're reflecting like this is a great sign, and cannot be said for many others in the same position.

Just bought tickets to see @kneecapceol.bsky.social - hyped as shit! If you don't know them yet check them out

Jakob J. Kamminga @rhythmicstudy.bsky.social · 28/08/2026

I had this happen and most people didn't take deck pictures... It still haunts me

Jakob J. Kamminga @rhythmicstudy.bsky.social · 26/08/2026

A great reason for a cube to include infect and mill because all win conditions deserve equal treatmenr

Jakob J. Kamminga @rhythmicstudy.bsky.social · 23/08/2026

This is so inspiring to just follow from the other side of the world, the amount of love and attention shows from every photo. Incredible work!

Now here's a nice Dutch folk wisdom: "The one who growls has a dog's life" The word grommen can be used to describe both growling (like a dog) or grumbling (like a human :-) #dutch #wisdom

Hell yeah Ivy. I was into Kilik & Talim myself in SC2. Classic Twink+Tomboy combo 😂

Jakob J. Kamminga @rhythmicstudy.bsky.social · 16/08/2026

Last score should be 1-1, 2-1 would not be possible in exhibition matches

Jakob J. Kamminga @rhythmicstudy.bsky.social · 16/08/2026

Now that was a spicy Gruul deck! 2-0,2-0,2-1 in exhibition matches of cubecobra.com/cube/list/36... #mtgcube

Now thinking it'd rather imply the existence of Saufred and Saugeorge

010

Jakob J. Kamminga @rhythmicstudy.bsky.social · 16/08/2026

False, it implies the existence of Sauharry and Sauhermione

Jakob J. Kamminga @rhythmicstudy.bsky.social · 16/08/2026

I get the sentiment, but it's not a good mentality. I grew up on Smash Brothers, but then I thought "Man I wish I had grown up when Nirvana was still around" or some shit. We live in a golden age of being able to play any and all games, new and old. You can play it all still, and more!

You could legit just cut me off films past 1980 and I wouldn't really mind tbh

If we'd just called LLM's not "Artificial Intelligence" but "Artificial Educated Guesswork," maybe things would make a lot more sense to some people #AI

If you're upset about Commander Rulebreakers, I refer you to this excellent article (from 2022) www.hipstersofthecoast.com/2022/04/note... #mtgcommander #mtgedh #edh #commander #camp

I have decided! To ramble about my cube for 37 minutes on YouTube! www.youtube.com/watch?v=9wZ0... Not sure if I'll be doing this more, but this was fun enough #mtgcube #simic #turbofog

I need to practice my public speaking, so I just talked about a big cube update into my microphone for 1.5 hours, Andy style. Probably just going to delete the recording but that was surprisingly fun and useful #MTGCube
