Seems like Reality Fracture will bring about a lot of life gain. It's a classic archetype that has existed for years, meaning there are a lot of directions you can go. Figured I would post this to get my thoughts straightened out and hopefully get people with more experience to chime in. Not...

I’ll probably edit the post if I have more ideas.

Arclight Phoenix I've been experimenting drafting two copies of the Phoenix and have been liking it as a free spell matter x GY/discard payoff. What are your thoughts on having a single copy? Still worth the work?

I like this one for my bounce to hand theme. You upgrade a creature and reuse an ETB. You can also save it from removal or have a weird late game anthem for your tokens/weenies. edit: posted too fast Another discard enabler in white. You are dependent on opponent so it’s not super reliable...

The hybrid prepared creatures look really good honestly. They make it so triggering Flurry is very easy considering the sorcery costs a single mana. The Goblin is a good source of repeatable Crime, Spectacle and Prowess triggers. Rakdos also has plenty of cards that pop off if the opponent lost...

https://cube.griselbrand.com/ You enter the Cube Cobra ID of cube's you want information on to create your own database (don't forget to save your selection like I did -_-'). From there you have a ton of tools at your disposal, from most popular cards to cards that say Graveyard or whatever.

I love my Mardu artifact cheat package for medium powered cubes Goblin Welder Reveillark Vesperlark Desperate Plea Alesha, Who Smiles at Death Marionette Master Triskelion Pentavus Triskelavus Threefold Thunderhulk You get to cheat out a bunch of 6+ drops thanks to these cards caring about...

So far I've only added the cubes I was following, haven't had time to scour your selection and steal the ones I enjoy! At 720, I figure you can afford a few power outliers like Frog since it's harder to get the nuts deck. I also think the frequency at which you draft impacts that decision. If...

I posted about sagas last year in a random cube project if anyone is interested: https://riptidelab.com/forum/threads/the-asylum.4144/#post-138564 Ended up with many similar mechanics as PyreDreams mentions. It’s a fun and open ended card type that is worth exploring!

Dom comes through again with a banger of a draft deck over on Cubecobra. It's a great showcase of the White discard package I wanted to include, but he managed to squeeze in an artifact theme that fits right in. Ones 1 Mishra's Bauble 1 Mox Opal 1 Pyrite Spellbomb 1 Enlightened Tutor 1...

I’m looking for a Red 3 or 4 drop that has play in slower decks, ideally isn’t discard related and can hang at higher power levels. Talking about stuff like Flametongue Kavu. Any and all suggestions welcome, thanks!

Going to steal your link to the cube comparaison page. Love looking at lists of cards to get inspiration! If flavor weren't an issue, I would definitely test these, with The Fantasticar likely to be too good. Fantastic Elasticity Kid Loki The Wonderous Wasp Mjolnir, Hammer of Thor Spider-man...

I think it could be fun to have some surprises. Aggro should expect sweepers from slower decks and therefore draft and play accordingly. The person drafting the wraths however, can now adjust their drafting to the seeded cards. Infest Languish Crux of Fate With Crux, maybe you pick up a dragon...

You've hit the nail on the head here. Outside of Speaker, Green's best discard outlets remain Wild Mongrel, Noose Constrictor, Fauna Shaman and Survival of the Fittest. The Mongrels play nice with Berserk and Temur Battle Rage if you have Berserkers. Green also has the tools to go bigger thanks...

As I rebuild the cube, I notice a gap in my aggro section that could potentially be bridged. I am talking about White's contribution to the GY/discard decks. White is notoriously hard to make work in GY cubes, but I think the cards are there thanks to some new releases and some oldies. White's...
