both Revelations and path are slow. Revelations requires 3 or more creatures to make it worth taking the turn off. Are you able in your cube to take a turn of from casting oath, and if so, will the value you generate be worth it? (I like durdle.deck but it is not a great fit for many cubes).

Storm, as fun as it is for a few times before it gets a tad boring, is often quite hard to implement in a cube. Most cards necessary are ‘parasitic’, i.e, only good in that deck. If your cube supports it, I would run both. The storm deck needs consistency and different payoffs leads to...

I come from low powered where you get a few turns without an answer before you die, but a few turns sound a lot better than a card from the grbs sets they created since the old frame.

They are both different. Recurring, is well even more recurring. But it requires a sacrifice. Servitude does not require the sacrifice (but it also removes the creature). You are right that recurring is quite strong, maybe even too strong. But remember, when creatures are weak going wide is...

I can confidently say that the following are not broken (at least in my cube): Mom Time spiral Recurring nightmare (okay, I play diabolic servitude)

Depends. In my cube the cradle is much stronger than academy. Simply due to the fact that there are often much more creatures in your deck than artifacts. The reason why academy is broken in constructed is due to the many cheap mana making artifacts. In my cube cradle is strong, even in decks...

It depends. I play with grim monolith and academy is weak. But most artifacts in my cube have cmc>=3. gaea’s cradle is the strongest one in my cube, followed by sanctum and then academy. If you play with a lot of moxes/petals/artifact lands than it could be strong. If not, it could be a...

Most are fine. The thing is that most powerhouses require a lot of set-up or scale with the powerlevel of the other cards in the format. Even cards banned in most formats like Tolarian academy Time vault Windfall Yawgmoth’s will Rofellos, llanowar emissary are fine. The other reason cube is...

Try it. If it is oppressive cut it. If it is a strong card that makes the strongest decks stronger, cut it. Be mindful about what card is actually oppressive: Phyrexian processor Phyrexian arena The processor is the visible oppressor while the arena is often deemed not oppressive while it often...

I had less lands than you (besides wayfarer/land tax) Rivalry

Thing is: most destruction spells (even some burn) of that era had an important tag to it which read cannot be regenerated. Yes it is a card like mom that can be annoying, but I have been playing with a low powered cube which includes both mom and the hollow and they have been more than fine...

maybe try in the occasionals: Volrath’s stronghold Yavimaya hollow Kor haven Dust bowl Rishadian port

In your cube can the decks (with some adoptations): * sometimes win against a turn 1 or 2 stack piece? * are the oppressive decks more vulnerable to staxx than the other decks? * does it lead to more fun? Only no to these questions means no. In between is up to you.

Now I want to add dark ritual… thing is, it is soo bad late game

I would suggest to have multiples of some cards but not based on rarity but the need for your environment. Typically, in a limited booster draft one has all the things one needs in the commons with anchors often at uncommon. Also on a booster draft one often has multiples of commons and...

I have an urza block cube. What I have learned is that rarity is a poor substitute for power: rancor vs yawgmoth’s will, the will is bonkers in constructed, but in cube it is okayish. This is opposed to rancor which is an all star in cube but not that great in constructed. If you desire a retail...

Disk is often compared to wrath, but that is not fair. It is akroma’s vengeance. It is not only creatures and yes does not hit planeswalkers. Giving the disk indestructible will make it repetitive. Yes, for white there are better options but it is surprising that for blue/black/red there are...

I won a few times with Rancor Intreped hero Both parts repeatable and not duds without the other part may make it better. Although I have to admit that plan A was to kill the opponent with a small creature with rancor on it. Plan Z was the combo.

Enduring is great in draw go, edric in tempo.
