By risk / reward, do you mean sticking an aura or something onto it? Because I agree for auras, but if this gets blown up in response to a +1/+1 counter or an equipment activation, I will be happy with my 2 1/1s. It's also quite good with stuff like Arcbound Ravager, Steel Overseer, KCI...

I really enjoy Nested Shambler and other power matter cards because they can work with a lot of effects. Auras, Equipment, +1/+1 counters and pump spells for example all shine alongside them. The 3 mana 2/1 rate on this one isn't impressive, but getting 2 artifacts when it dies is quite strong...

Maybe I misunderstood the idea, but there is the Riptide classic Demonic Pact Can be interacted with and takes a bit of time to win. Similar vein Faithbound Judge On an other note Hidetsugu Consumes All If you can grow the backside with an Arcane Teaching or whatever, then you can ping...

Thinking about the cube more and seeing how much I am struggling to get a good set of 320 cards, I decided to try another approach. How about a 4 player cube, no deckbuilding and cutting Red. Current list A 4 player cube (160 cards - 92 nonlands and 68 lands) would allow me to actively curate...

Draft risk I've added some cheap Baneslayers to the cube as alternative value engines that can be deployed early and draw you into late game engines, or be stand alone value threats for more tempo oriented decks. Bilbo, Thief in the Night Dark Confidant Basim Ibn Ishaq These cards have great...

Glad you liked it as much as I did. Black I am not convinced, but Red? At least close in regards to GY/Discard strategies (+ Practiced Offense) Greasewrench Goblin Marauding Mako Inti, Seneschal of the Sun Ivora, Instatiable Heir Gau, Feral Youth Showdown of the Skalds I like Amalgam least...

Artifacts made me think of this little guy for combat centered aristocrats Ravenous Squirrel

Untap synergies I'm stealing ideas from KlavierAchse right now. They recently updated there cube with Traxos, Scourge of Kroog and it made me think of a the newer version I hadn't considered until now. I've been meaning to increase the untap combo potential and this one seems like a beast...

I meant it more in the sense that it's not a card you would consider in your cube if you didn't have Yedora. On its own it's perfectly good as you say!

I don't have a ton of good options for Yedora, but it is a trippy card. The classic is Life and Limb, maybe that has game in a cube so heavily focused on lands? There is this one if you want a better rate morph Nervous Gardner And as for combo potential, these two can work Hauntwoods...

Untap combo Not sure if this counts, but I wanted to bring attention to a little guy with a lot of combo potential I overlooked. Sakura-Tribe Scout (and Skyshroud Ranger gets a shoutout too) Got to draft a cool deck in KlavierAchse's cube. Ones 1 Zuran Orb 1 Mishra's Bauble 1 Aether...

Yeah Human Frailty is a stupid card gameplay wise, but one of the most flavourful inclusions. The book is about how humanity got completely demolished by an ancient civilization who then changed what it meant to be human. This is the first pass, with no regards to mechanics, but I agree with...

Decided to try a more flavor driven approach with zero fucks in regards to mechanics. It's a rough draft because I did this quickly by coalescing favorites from mainboard and maybeboard in the original cube. Cube list here One of the charms of this whole cube idea was the elapsed time between...

I am 100% in agreement with you and I think I even said so myself in the previous post. I appreciate critique even if it isn't positive! This is in no way scummy. If my little project inspired you to create something in the same space, I'm glad, because then, I'll be the one stealing your...

I have a draftable version of the cube available here. Settled on 17 lands per player, with no shuffling. That's not exactly true as I still run Inverter of Truth and Chaos Warp, but those are one of events. I still have counters and two types of tokens (Eldrazi spawns and Germs), so not...
