Funch's cube and similar brainstorming cubes are a lot closer in philosophy to riptide cubes to MTGO vintage imo - redundant effects most decks want are the bread and butter of brainstorming cubes and interchangeability as they create a baseline of powerful effects that can be used as the base...

I am testing these and am quite excited about them all Tempted by the Oriq Sedgemoor Witch Dragonsguard Elite Vanishing Verse Prismari Command Witherbloom Command Culling Ritual Decisive Denial Quandrix Apprentice Quandrix Command Extus, Oriq Overlord Abundant Harvest

I think if we see shroud again it will be in text form ('~ cannot be the target of spells or abilities') instead of being keyworded

I don't really see the appeal of crackle? It's floor is lava axe, and the ceiling is two lava axes for 8 mana

It's getting a bit off topic, but the current concept I'm working with (subject to change) is that players pick a class base of ~25 cards (lands incl), then participate in a draft phase where they pick up 2 packs of 16, which they can then use to edit and customise their class base by adding...

I probably should have specified, but I'm attempting to avoid planeswalkers/legendary creatures - it's for a DnD themed archenemy cube, where flavour is king and it doesn't make much sense to be slinging legends around

That makes sense, thank you for clarifying!

Out of curiosity, how would you define power max

Peek Growth Spiral Explore big fan of these three as cantrips with extra utility, the info advantage from peek can be very powerful in my experience

First off, thank you for looking at my cube haha I would argue that in a high fixing environment like mine, generally it'll be more like 35-39 cards maindecked, but I can seee your point in that case. However, I have found that instead of encouraging hate drafting, the larger pools instead...

I'm a big fan of both Stamina and Lash of Malice in lower power environments, although seeing as you already run Malakir Rebirth I think Lash will potentially be more unique

Here's an archival post of some minor changes primarily for my own purposes Out: Shatterskull Smashing Raging Ravine Faithless Looting In: Vraska, Golgari Queen Soul-Guide Lantern Sword of Light and Shadow Nothing super special here, currently deliberating putting in support for an Artifact...
