Doesn't this guy play just like Spellskite?

That's about as synergistic as Playing Magic + Treasure Cruise, tbh

Unfortunately Deranged Hermit is on the Reserved List :'(

Unless they go full "Powered Cube Draft" on us. Which, judging by the spoilers (so far, at least), looks like it might happen!

On turn 6, you're never able to rip a FTK and a second business spell. On turn 6, you will always be able to rip TC and a second business spell. You get more done in less time. Which is a fundamental strength of a Magic card. Whether you think this particular iteration of "getting more done in...

It's not that 6 mana is game over, its that 6 extra mana (from Delve), in conjunction with 3 extra cards (Again, from TC) is game over for opposing decks, assuming that card quality on average is roughly the same for the environment. This is true for any deck, not just aggressive decks, I'm not...

This was ultimately what drove these cards out of my cube, was that they were power picks in a meta where Blue already had a plethora of strong power picks. My mentioning of Frost Titan was not the point of what I had to say. What I'm saying is that out of anything you can play with {6} {U}...

I'm curious as to your manabase in your Cube, and how low your curve is. In my Cube, I found that double fetches plus cheap interaction between decks lead to a relatively trivial Treasure Cruise at {U} or Dig Through Time at {U}{U} on turn 4-5. I think the point that you're missing about...

Yes, and... ?

I figured "Cube Bullshit" was enough... Maybe what we're looking for is a Multiple Card Discussion thread? SCD and Fight Club take care of cards on an individual level, maybe MCD has discussion about a set of cards (2-5 cards) and their merits, anything bigger gets its own thread (Like the...

GDD has been absolutely stellar in the last few drafts I've held. I'm not sure about doubling, but I have been meaning to cut Inferno Titan for a while, and that might be a solid replacement. Recruiter sounds interesting too.... I might try that out as well

I'm curious, why do you think so?

Not to mention everyone's favorite Mountains: Blood Crypt Sacred Foundry Stomping Ground Steam Vents But real talk: this card looks like it could fit in with Wildfire quite nicely, as well as to break other red land destruction symmetries (Boom//Bust comes to mind) as well.

Might I offer a library of decks from a typical riptide list? http://www.cubetutor.com/decks/26069 Some of these are ambitious, but there's almost every possible "archetype" deck in there somewhere.

Black is a super strong fourth colour, especially in Riptide lists running recursive aggro decks: Gravecrawler Bloodsoaked Champion Relentless Dead Bloodghast Phyrexian Reclamation Unburial Rites Unearth Tasigur, the Golden Fang

Again, well put together! I enjoyed the read, and this is something I think I'll get myself into the next time I re-organize the TECH MAGIC cube. Polling opinion here: how many copies of Gifts Ungiven would a cube bathing in these engines/synergies want to run? I'm thinking 2-3 but I've got no...

My fault, I hadn't seen it already added. Keep this [Drogskol Reaver] singleton!

Doomed Traveler Midnight Haunting Drogskol Reaver Aurelia, the Warleader I know, I know, I'm not helping the "too much multicolored white" cause, but these seem fitting. And Aurelia is a personal favorite.

Guys, BTP is leaking again... they came up with the Peasant WB Color-shifted Infect Cube already. I believe this idea has been in the works over there since 2010.
