Thank you! I love your new PFP as well ;). I've been doing some additional research into the differences between the two builds of Thopthers, and I've realized something: they're basically just different flavors of the same deck. Every U/R Thopters deck was basically taking the core Ensoul...

In low power it is, yeah. I don't think it's as good in fast formats, but that's more because it's easier to answer/get under/counter/outscale, not because it's any less miserable.

I just realized I have literally all of these nonland cards in my Cube lol. Really big fan of Satyr Wayfinder, I think that card is very fun to play with!

There's a reason I love it so much ;)

If you are ok with playing some really bad cards, Inspired works with this as well! God-Favored General Fellhide Spirit-Binder Satyr Nyx-Smith Born of the Gods was a "fun" time.

Also, my former favorite card of all time: Grim Guardian

The Frustrating Case of the Thopter Deck. Background I've wanted to support some sort of Blue/Red artifact deck in this Cube for a while. I still remember when the UR Thopters archetype came out of nowhere at Pro Tour Magic Origins, putting up a strong showing with two different versions of...

I think Communist also made more sense for the flavoring of some of these initial cards since about half were early 20th century revolutionaries and the other half were druid communes. The type was being used to represent different things than the word "comrade" implies. For future reference...

Brawl-Brash Ogre Shapers of Nature Vigilant Baloth

I really enjoy long, self-reflective posts like this that talk about the history of Cube design, especially in the microcosm of one's own environment. I think you beautifully illustrate the frustration of needing something for an archetype but the perfect card not existing for 10+ years!

This is an astute observation! I wonder how many Cubes fall into this category... Probably more than a few, right?

Well personally I'd always rather have Omenspeaker than Spontaneous Mutation, but that's only because Omenspeaker is really awesome. If the cheap roadblock is less interesting, like Wall of Mist or Glimmerbell, then I would rather have the Mutation. Additionally, Mutation is good if you're...

Makes sense. My experience with it comes from Pioneer and SNC retail. The card is nutty!

I would really like to see the following: {W}{U} Based Adventure bleeding into {B}{R}{G}. Adventure is my favorite recent mechanic, and I would love some more constructed-power level Adventure cards. Specifically, I'd like to see some more blue tempo Adventures like Brazen Borrower and Hypnotic...

I think this card is unbeatably strong in low power. It snowballs very fast!

I like Deathgorge Scavenger and Mardu Woe-Reaper. Some other cool options: Dawnbringer Cleric Leonin of the Lost Pride Armored Scrapgorger Cleanup Crew Return to Nature Verdant Command Dryad Militant

Does this beat the Hamburger from Unfinity?

I think Spontaneous Mutation is cooler because it's easier to scale with how you build your deck instead of having to work around whatever the opponent is doing to get a larger power reduction. Getting 2 cards in your graveyard is easy enough to achieve that I think the two cards have relatively...
