Come back with me to a simpler time... One Box, Draft your lands, No Shuffling No tokens, No counters, No white cards, and NO SLEEVES! Ok, so there have always been white cards... but when I set out to make a cube based on my awesome experiences playing with some old World Championship decks...

Hello! I've posted a bit about my Graveyard Cube in various comments (Particularly on Inscho's wonderful graveyard combo cube). However, it was recently selected as one of the featured cubes for CubeCon! With that in mind, I've been doing a lot more work on the environment, and thought it might...

How do the golgari say goodbye? "Bayou"

I'd love to give a bump to Inscho's as well, would love to see it in action

I'm unreasonably excited about Diamond Lion for the graveyard cube knowing full well that it's likely mediocre to bad

Makes sense re: Marionette. If you are looking to support artifacts in black, I've been looking at Armix, Filigree Thrasher-- though I know you don't like extra commander text on cards. There's also the new Black Trading post guy, which even sacrifices them, so maybe there's something there If...

Re: Explosive Cards, what do you think of: Pulsemage AdvocateOctavia, Living ThesisIntuitionDreams of the DeadSurly BadgersaurWildfire DevilsBedlam revelerImmolating GyreVivien's ArkbowThe Binding of the TitansBazaar of BaghdadHunting Grounds Also, Not as explosive, but I was wondering...

Awesome! Thanks for the reply! I always love hearing about different approaches to arrive at ultimately somewhat similar lists of cards, and this summary of your current goals for the environment helps me look at your list with new eyes. :) (Gonna be honest, I thought wake the past cost 5...

"Including: Conspiracy Theorist That’s probably it." (From testing/include thread) This is shocking to me-- I feel like Strixhaven has been one of the greatest boons to gy cubes in a long time (Though the upcoming innistrad sets are sure to take that mantle soon) Conspiracy Theorist is...

Update time!!!! So, after another draft of this with a friend, I made the choice to power down the cards surrounding morph, particularly sweepers, instant speed removal, and top end Ritual of SootUgin, the Spirit DragonInfernal Reckoning So, a new link for these major changes...

Hey There, as a sister graveyard cube-owner, I like to check in on your latest changes whenever I do big updates. I've found Thassa's Oracle to be too strong/easy to pull off. What has your experience with it been like (Similarly, Altar of Dementia proved to be too strong, curious how you...

Sorceries that I think are cool, but too good if you can play them at instant speed

Ok, I was talking to a friend yesterday, and he brought up an interesting idea-- Is there a way to make Foretell work as morph? As in, instead of exiling the card, just go ahead and pretend that foretell is morph/spellmorph Additionally, etb effects on those cards would become "Enters the...

(Ok, Post-Writing this note-- I do think the sorta generic, unfocused-ness of morph and effects that work well with it mean that colors don't have as much of a unique identity as I would perhaps like them to. Maybe what I mean is that I'm looking for more interesting cards (and types of effects)...

Ok, it's been awhile. I haven't posted because, well, I haven't had opportunities to playtest anything for a while. That said, a couple recent drafts have helped confirm my suspicion that there's a problem with my green section, in that it is A. The home of the best Morph cards and morph...
