Legit question: do you want to stick to just the "big three", or do you also want to support stuff like tempo aggro-control disruptive decks? Because blue "aggro" has a strong tendency to actually be curiosity.dec or ninja.dec, which doesn't really play the same way (or want the same cards as)...

Kaito is honestly less interesting than it looks. A lot of times it boils down to just being an unblockable saboteur, which isn't broken or anything... it's just not really worth the extra overhead involved in it being a planeswalker.

Bushwhack - {G} Sorcery Choose one: • Search your library for a basic land card. Reveal it, put it into your hand, and then shuffle. • Target creature you control fights target creature you don't control. Compare: Khalni Ambush

It's a 2/3 for {1}{G} that can make a 6/6 with Haste for {3}{G}{G}... or it's a 5/5 for {5} that can make a 15/15 with Haste for {3}{G}{G}. Is a 15/15 with haste worth {8}{G}{G}? I kinda think it is.

Behold, a hidden reanimator archetype! Fatal Frenzy

Levitating Statue is such a sweet design. Like, they could've just made it so that the ability turned it into a 1/1 with flying, but just giving the artifact flying means it works well with other stuff and it makes it easier to parse what the card does.

Not seeing it. I'm not sure how to feel about this card.

Now that I think about it... it could be interesting to do a 12_456 cube, where there's a conspicuous gap at 3 mana and there's a heavier focus on the bolded MVs. If you did it right, you'd get a pretty natural split between aggressive, low-to-the-ground decks and decks that focus on ramping up...

It's also the card that's probably going to see some play with Awaken the Woods. Since, you know, they're both in Standard with each-other.

I raise you Tatyova, Steward of the Tides Embodiment of Fury Embodiment of Insight

Cut all 1 drops. Make the Keruga Cube. Cast your blue spells using all the mana you'll get from blacksmithy's tears. --- I had a weird ramble-y theory bit here about how you can classify Magic's macro-archetypes by how they interact with building up resources vs. spending those resources, but...

Awaken the Woods is pretty funny. It feels like Green is getting some really silly land-related goodies in this set. "Oops all Dryad Arbor tokens", "Unearth a 2/7 Ramunap Excavator for {G}{G}", and "all my lands are basic lands" all fill me with joy.

This is pretty neat mana sink.

OK, this is nonsense.

Last time I paid attention, Voidwalker was a thing in Modern — primarily in Rakdos Scam, which is a combo deck trying to get out a T1 Fury or Grief with Feign Death effects. Understandably, the evasive 3/2 for 2 is considered a lesser threat than the 4/3 that double Thoughtseized you on T1, or...

Well then.

Yeah, the thing about Constructed is that, in many cases, toughness is way more important than power.

Those are awfully weird black mana symbols that Tocasia has there. :p

My only concern is that people would look at the text in the box and go "ah, you support Legendary Creature Tribal!" I mean, more power to the person who can support a Bard Class deck in Cube, but even I'm not that crazy.
