Good thought on Seance. I've never actually played with it, for some reason I was thinking it gave haste. Let's see: - Anger is in red for global haste (replaced Fires of Yavimaya) - A couple sac outlets, nothing fantastic (Varolz, a couple of others) So primarily I guess it would be ETB...

There's something to be said for the aesthetics of all the cards having the same frame. Though the old fetches sort of ruin that.

Damn, Odyssey cards are sweet. Going deep in Gatherer on Threshold and Madness.

I think Tracker's Instincts is much better when you know that you have a decent chance to pick up Splinterfright/Mortivore/Lhurghoyf etc. I think maybe I have enough of those x/x creatures that Salvage is better than Lord of Extinction, will probably make that change.

The problem is there are so many good graveyard cards in Golgari. I'm not confident enough to break color symmetry yet and overload Golgari which is already strong. I went back and forth between Varolz and Salvage several times.

CML - I cut most of the terrible cards and a couple of the top-end cards that weren't on theme this morning to get down to 360. I'll keep the extra cantrip idea in mind for future tweaks once I get a chance to actually draft the darn thing.

Cut down to 360 complete.

Side note on graveyard hate - I feel like things like Rest in Peace/Tormod's Crypt/Relic go against the spirit of a "graveyard cube", but I also realize that some things will get out of control without some measure of counter-hate. That's why I've got cards like Memory's Journey/Purify the...

You mentioned a while back upthread looking for "death matters" cards. I've always had a fondness for these two: They're each a different half of Blood Artist! :)

What are people's experiences with the Karoos in Cube? I know there's the whole history of "cut the Karoos/Signets" from the Tom LaPille era, but I was thinking about it and with all the retrace cards I have the Karoos could do a lot more than just blind ramp. If I do add them, cut lands (I...

Follow-up to avoid spam on the main post - A couple of cycles breaking the singleton rule right now, though I'm not 100% committed to keeping them as strict cycles: 3x of 2-color flashback spells for each guild (Spider Spawning, Momentary Blink, Desperate Ravings etc) - obviously the power...

Hi all - This is my first cube, I just finished the first draft and will be hopefully getting in a lot testing/refining with the goal of having it in good shape for PAX. Goal: Recreate the feel of Innistrad draft while also having some of the "greatest hits" feel of traditional cube. I'd...
