I would go with Helping Hand in your fight. More generically playable and impactful I think, though it's funny that both can rot in hand. Satyr Wayfinder vs Dredger's Insight Having a body vs returning more card types (that are all supported in the cube). Thoughts?

100%, those are some wild cards for lower power. And I do understand that you can create a context where they don't shine, but 90% of the time they will take over. Cards that make a ton of mana I am also suspicious of. Grim Monolith and Gaea's Cradle seems easily abusable by virtue of having 6+...

I like a lot of the mechanics and card designs this set has to offer, but the flavor is too off putting. Case in point, there are two slam dunk cards mechanically that I will be excluding for flavor purposes The Ooze Mutagen Man, Living Ooze The Mutagen tokens are great at spreading out a bit...

I think you are definitely going down the right track with all of these foods/artifact trinkets. The payoffs seem varied and that leads to drafters expressing themselves during the draft. I’d love to see this little guy in addition to everything Ravenous Squirrel While there is a Golgari...

The open-endedness of Sevinne’s Reclamation makes me think it’s a better core card. Works with small creatures, auras, lands even Jace Beleren! Also Gifts Ungiven when for this spicy pile Gifts Ungiven Sevinne’s Reclamation Laboratory Maniac

Appreciate the feedback, I missed the Brawler, but it is a tad too slow. I am considering an Occasional set up (like japahn and more recently ravnic adopted), to give me a bit more freedom with these more narrow cards. Your strategy of growing the cube is a good one too, but I feel strongly...

Tinker Emry, lurker of the loch Pretty sure you could pull these off with the right targets. Demonic Tutor Tainted pact Good 2 mana cantrips?

I think it will be an auto include. The saving grace is that it should play quite differently from deck to deck and fit into many archetypes. Aggro loves a resilient beater and can make use of the counter synergy or use the life gain to trigger a Pridemate or something. Midrange might blink...

I have zero energy to look at the spoilers myself, but really appreciate you taking the dive and bringing us the cool cards. Thanks!

Same could be said for a turn 4 Wildfire (off a Worn Powerstone or double Talisman) blowing all opponents lands and wiping their board. When you run land destruction, you risk non-games some amount of the time. Up to you what that threshold is. Me, I’m like Shamizy where Strip Mine is too...

The big difference is that you spent turn four casting a card with zero board impact making it more risky to pull off. Plus, an Eldrazi payoff for any color is sweet as I recall White being an issue there.

Maybe something like these as cheat for all colors. You spend 8 mana for an Eldrazi but split over 2 turns. Of course, it’s cheat, not reanimation. Quicksilver amulet Thran temporal gateway Belbe’s Portal Cryptic Gateway? To answer the question, 4 and 5 feels too low if you are running the...

I've been pretty happy with my self-mill and discard swaps so far. In this deck, Squee and Stinkweed Imp shine as value and acceleration respectively. Ones 1 Stinkweed Imp 1 Squee, Goblin Nabob 1 Lotus Petal 1 Scrabbling Claws 1 Chromatic Star 1 Currency Converter 1 Noxious Revival 1 Reanimate...

I'll add a few leave the battlefield cards Tameshi, Reality Architect Barrin, Tolarian Archmage Vengeful Rebel Hidden Herbalists Hidden Stockpile Renegade Rallier Also stuff like Windbrisk Heights and the generically good Surveil lands. And one of my favorite untappers Rude Awakening

Professor Zei, Anthropologist Does this count? Because it’s pretty great at repeated discard. Fear of missing out hasn’t been mentioned but isnup there in terms of power level.
