I plan on playing the companions without the companion text. The cards themselves are good, but what I like the most are the hybrid mana costs. They allow you do diversify your decks by a great amount and keep the cube fresh. I tried to draft some decks with the companions as companions and...

I’m feeling the same way Trainmaster, where it feels like I am stuck between 2 schools of thought to whom I both wnt to adhere. I realized this came from reading all the posts on the cube subreddit as well as Usman’s set reviews and Solely Singleton podcast. I want to play all the “good” cards...

The two other discard matter cards that I can think of (excluding Archfiend of Ifnir for power level reasons) Bone MiserSurly Badgersaur The Miser is stronger than the badger, but given enough overlap in your red section, I can see the badger making it in. I do think Buccaneer is better than...

I never noticed my user name is different here (Minox on CC). I really liked your previous version of the cube and this one is rock solid as well. There are so many possibilities during each draft and each card fits into multiple decks. I can randomly pick any card first pack and build around...

I really like the chosen abilities you have here. One that I enjoy is mana sinks in my early drops. For example Incubation DruidSauroform HybridPteramander Kessig ProwlerUlvenwald Captive Kargan DragonlordStudent of WarfareBeastbreaker of Bala GedEnclave CryptologistGuul Draz Assassin...

Another card that works well with X spells is Pyromancer's Goggles It provides a bit of ramp, but more importantly it can double your red spells if you want to double up with a spells matter theme in that color. Finale of PromiseTempt with VengeanceAvacyn's Judgment Give you X spells...

Going in blind, I ended up in Orzhov: www.cubetutor.com/cubedeck/1262536[/url]"] Zeroes 1 Mishra's Bauble Ones 1 Gitaxian Probe 1 Inquisition of Kozilek Twos 1 Blood Artist 1 Carnival of Souls 1 Corpse Knight 1 Dawn of Hope 1 Daxos, Blessed by the Sun 1 Heartless Summoning 1 Hidden...

Thanks for the suggestions. Gurzigost is a really cool card I didn't know about, but doesn't quite get there for my cube. It's missing a keyword or 2. I have run Genesis in the past, when my cube was a little slower. It was always a decent engine. But now with a higher speed, I find that...

I'm tinkering pretty hard with my cube for some graveyard shenanigans. I think it's looking pretty good, but I'm worrying about milling yourself out. Some decks can churn through the library pretty hard and I'm wondering if something should be done to avoid this or if it should be an inherent...

The multiplayer setting is why I am trying a few pushed planeswalkers (more opponents usually means easier to deal with), but if we are at about the same power level and he is good for you, I am really excited. I've been eyeing the guy since his release and thought I had irrational love for the...

There is also Syr Konrad, the Grim who is solid and has bonus synergy if you run some mill/self-mill. I really want to run him, but I think my power level is too high. He doesn't gain life though, so that is probably a bummer for you ravnic :(

Include Luminous Broodmoth: In my environment, resilient threats are at a premium. It's good with or against a wrath and allows to double dip on sacrifice effects (like Anax, Hardened in the Forge and Nightmare Shepherd). The worst case scenario is a 3/4 flier for 4 which is fine(ish). Verge...

I'm loving all these hybrids. The cat seems great at supporting small white GY decks. Teshar, Ancestor's Apostle, Ajani, Adversary of Tyrants, Sevinne's Reclamation. Goes well in a deck with Emry, Lurker of the Loch or Goblin Engineer returning Chromatic Star, Mishra's Bauble and Hangarback...

In regards to the Baloths vs Avenger, the downside of both of these is that they are powerful enough outside of the landfall deck to get snagged by other random decks. So you aren't really able to target the deck that you want. The Woodcrasher is probably a safer bet to reach your goal. I...

If I were to powermax: Gales Flame Night=Dawn=Thorn Hijack! I'm glad you brought this up, because I am really hesitating with the green one. I want to support GY shenanigans and currently run Golgari Grave-Troll. I am thinking this guy could take it's spot as a more versatile enabler...

One of the best non-official ninja's Changeling Outcast He get's through, he is cheap to recast and he can trigger your Dimir ninjas. Also wears equipment like a champ and can randomly enable zombie or human synergies you might have. Also, not a ninja, but fits the saboteur theme...

I love building a Cataclysm deck with stuff like: ReveillarkHallowed SpiritkeeperAnax, Hardened in the ForgeGreater GargadonGoblin WelderWorld ShaperBrindle ShoatTitania, Protector of ArgothBitterblossomMarionette MasterNightmare ShepherdHerald of TormentNighthowlerSaffi EriksdotterVoice of...

Maybe you could look at multiplayer or EDH cubes. They generally don't have many walkers and play more long term engines. The environments are usually slow. Not all cards or starts will be useful, but maybe it can give some ideas!

I'd like some input on Kozilek's PredatorEldrazi Skyspawner I'm trying to add a bunch of cards that fit multiple archetypes and Nest Invader is great at that. It's blinkable, it ramps, it tokens and it sacs. I was looking at other options and the Predator and Skyspawner don't seem half...

This is a great point that is easy to lose sight of. I also think this applies to your multicolored sections and removal/bounce/draw that could be played in a mono-colored section. I know this is an old debate, but the wording from TrainmasterGT makes it easily understandable. Sure Lightning...
