That I can get behind! In that context, these are some nice 3 drops to curve into Overlaid Terrain. Slogurk, the Overslime Long Feng, Grand Secretariat Scouring Swarm Erinis, Gloom Stalker Turntimber Sower Countryside Crusher There might also be a live to dream here with another 3 drop...

Since posting this thread, my combo land package has been bolstered. I've incorporated a lot of what you mention here, but came to slightly different conclusions. I say that without the intent of throwing any shade, we have different cube preferences and environments so naturally we won't align...

Probably, but my reasoning is if I am playing a mid/lower power cube I’m not looking to get infinite comboed out of the game. In that context, it’s not fun* to play against (*my opinion on fun). Since games also tend to go on longer, you have more looks at finding the cards and a combo ending...

I think low to mid power, Persist isn’t great with Finks and Redcap because it just ends the game out of nowhere as they both have ETBs that effectively win the game. If you were to use the vanilla persist creatures (Masticore, Goblin and Elite), you could make the deck play less deterministic...

You don’t seem enamoured with these choices so I’ll throw in a suggestion Waterfront Bouncer An old school classic that discards at instant speed, but trades the draw for board presence. Seems like it would fit the vibes of the CCC nicely and be unique enough to stand out from Merfolk Looter.

Fancy that! I imagine you're also going to suggest Scapeshift for a Tifa Lockhart package and next thing you know, Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle makes sense too. Joking aside, Dryad is a solid recommendation! Untappers I've had Faeries in my maybeboard for a bit, but it seemed a little narrow...

High Tide I was thinking of ways to make Green play along with the spell velocity themes in the cube and remembered High Tide. This card shines when 1. You have a lot of Islands on the battlefield 2. You can untap your lands for cheap (cheap depends on the amount of Islands you have) 3. You can...

I think this is the one. What I like the most here is that you have two ramp pairs making Eldrazis more plausible + a slower UB strategy that is also favorable to the Titans. How are you planning on differentiating the two ramp color combinations?

I'll echo what others have said, I think it's totally fine at your power level and will play really well. I personally find it a bit generic from a synergy perspective, in that you don't have a ton of hooks compared to the likes of Fractured Identity, Three Steps Ahead and Sublime Epiphany (I...

This set singlehandedly has me adding back my instant and sorcery matters payoffs as a couple of cards are just so perfect with what the cube is doing. In addition, there is a high number of cards that I think will stay for a long time, which is quite rare! For now, I am passing on the Prepared...

Love a report and deck lists, thanks for sharing. Have you tried Voldaren Bloodcaster? I'm always on the edge of adding it, but haven't committed yet (mostly due to DFC issues). Even adds artifacts to the mix!

Generally not a fan of the art in this set, but there are exceptions. This one is a little tarnished by the flavor text, but I absolutely love this art. Oracle's Restoration Another banger and solid cantrip. This one too has amazing art. Have you tried Gumdrop Poisoner btw? Not art...

This is one hard hitter! I don’t think the limitations on power or toughness matter much as you are likely sacrificing tokens or Bloodghast/Gravecrawler and friends. Maybe you get less triggers in combat making suicide attacks less impactful.

Cube cleanup I didn't expect there to be so many Strixhaven spoilers I'd be interested in and I find myself needing cuts. Thought it could be a good time to check out various archetypes and their support as well as some of the more fringe cards in the cube. +1/+1 Counters There are two...

I just wish the bodies were smaller on the three drops. You are already getting a free spell, come on!
