I have cut white before, and while in practice it works, it just feels... off. Both me and my drafters missed white even though it is undoubtedly the weakest color in my cube. I guess they just want an underdog to root for? My cube is a tiny bit more powered than yours, we have On Wings of Gold...

Emptiness is probably the best six drop I could have asked for, super powerful in Orzhov, but not overwhelming depending on your three drops. In powered cubes getting a Monastery Mentor would hurt, for me, the best thing it could get is like splinterfright

Instead of mogg fanatic, I actually quite like Goblin arsonist or cacophony scamp fireblade charger if you want to go a little bit higher on the power level. of these, I like fireblade the most for your list

Your choices are decent, but if you want them to be unwordy, and unoppressive have you considered the uncommon walkers from WAR? (Sorted by price since that's a decent power gauge). Many of them are basically enchantments that you can attack, and if you don't have proliferate and such in your...

+1 for radiant scrollwielder. It's a bit annoying to do the "at random" but as long as players understand to shuffle them together and have opponent pick one from the backside, it's a sweet effect.

In terms of green being control, there's always beast within I also am partial to the two flash foliage poison the blade but we could also play with fog and friends, that's basically a "deny combat step" and is pretty iconic for green control, although it is really hard to use correctly and...

Yeah for complexity reasons I made the switch to only have surveil effects (or somewhat equivalent), and with FIN and such it's good so far, lower power but good.

but I also can be 100% cool for a few minutes if I play Rainbow Dash... That 0% coolness is a risk I am willing to take.

I think the term for that is stuff in the "bank" which includes stuff like experience counters, suspended cards, poison counters, energy counters, etc. So there is definitely some overlap between parasitic mechanics and cards that generate value for the bank. I definitely see Meren of Clan Nel...

You're forgetting the premier 3 drop for the five color haste deck Rainbow Dash

For other low-power I also really like the duo of elspeth conquers death The eldest reborn elspeth is the much more reasonable and reliable card, but there is something very enjoyable for me about foreboding cards

Hmm even though I don't care for a lot of the designs so far in Edge of Eternity, I can say that it is ultimately a much more flavorful and interesting set than Outlaws of Thunder Junction and whatnot. While Vorthos-ing is subjective, I would bet money that these new sets are going to sell...

They have with the Sagas that don't die after the last chapter in NEO, but the only other time I remember the reminder text being different within the same set was augment in Unstable monkey-ninja

don't forget about Return to the Ranks Or if you want to mix up the power level a little Raise the Past

I'm glad my design pissed people off, designed exactly as intended, probably a little too tweaked but I had fun.
