You're going to hate me for this, but I unironically like the art for Familiar Stranger more than the art for Multifarious. It's the one art out of his four cards where the sneaky shapeshifter that could be disguised as anyone is actually in disguise and not just posing in a room somewhere. I'm...

To be fair, a lot of the spacesuit/armor designs that aren't Knight Luminary look pretty ugly at card-art scale. I think they'd be fine as larger pieces, but they're just too busy with greebles and garbage.

As someone who does a lot of dumb Pauper brewing (I like the challenge)... I can't think of anything? Believe me, I've been wracking my brain since it was first leaked (because like you said, it's unique for its colors), but everything I've thought of either wants to go into extra colors...

You're right for Pauper and Peasant cubes, but it honestly isn't that good in Pauper constructed - I think Turbo Fog is the only remotely meta deck that might be interested in Green Murder, since everything else I can think of has access to more efficient removal.

Self-fighting has apparently been in black, red, and white over the years, though it does seem to have settled in red, since it's the only color that's gotten it in the last 20 years. Diplomatic Relations seems like a clear misprint... though there's the faint possibility that they might leave...

OK, we'll skip the 4-drops: Orcish Lumberjack Kraul Harpooner Primal Forcemage Cultivator of Blades T3 Flames -> T4 Lumberjack into Cultivator and sac Fires seems like a hilarious curve to me. Yeah, you're slamming down 15 hasty power that gives the rest of your creatures +3/+3, what of it?

I'd just like to quote this because I was going back through this thread and had to stop and laugh at myself. Boy howdy was this card a mistake.

I've been meaning to make a proper mind-map diagram for some of my cubes, because that's more appropriate to how I think about cube design... but I don't have the tools for that on my current computer, and the last time I tried doing it it got snarled up and messy really fast. I think you'd...

Gigastorm Titan I've been eyeing Stormwing Entity for my Land Grant format, but having a 3/3 flying prowess creature with Scry 2 on entry that reliably costs {1}{U} really skews the power level of creatures. Making it a vanilla 4/4 is less exciting, but it still gets the overall idea across.

On the topic of Landers, there's also: What an interesting pseudo-modal card. EDIT: I feel like Landers are going to end up in the same place as Blood and Maps did, where the only times they've shown up after their first appearance have been as little references.

I dunno, I feel like gaining Surveil 1 and reducing the life cost is a pretty solid upgrade. It gives me strong Expressive Iteration vibes.

Hymn of the Faller seems kinda ridiculous if you can reliably trigger Void.

T1 Loam Dryad -> T2 Hemosymbic Mite + Sunstar Chaplain seems like a curve to me!

It also has "Ward - Pronounce Mm'menon", which is a pretty powerful keyword.

I honestly have no idea how to judge the power level of Hemosymbic Mite.
