Drafted the Ravnica cube: Started with a stinkweed imp then P1P2 saw a doorkeeper. Tried to draft around that and got the following. www.cubetutor.com/cubedeck/1102577[/url]"] Ones 1 Codex Shredder Twos 1 Doorkeeper 1 Doorkeeper 1 Last Gasp 1 Lurking Informant 1 Remand 1 Surveilling Sprite...

Thanks for the draft ravnic! Kind of disappointed that the deck looks so generic, but that's not your fault, it's mine! I will try and play around with the reanimation spells to make things more spicy. I also probably need to cut on discard/reanimation support because it looks like you have...

To further my previous post, I realized I didn't mention Temur. I see this as mostly a value pairing where you try to use your lands as fodder for the various discard outlets (Faithless Looting, Chart a Course, Looter Il-Kor, ...). You don't mind discarding those lands since you will be getting...

There is just so much quality information in this forum that I sometimes have to snap myself out of it lest I "waste" a whole day reading up on cube. Anyways, found this post about broad archetypes in cube design. It makes a lot more sense than either the guild or shard approaches. So I'm going...

So I drafted this thing a bunch, made some adjustments, drafted some more and now I have some more insight. First of all, screw most planeswalkers. I know this is a popular view around here, but I couldn't see it until I wanted to highlight other cards. They do a lot of work for very little...

For those who have tried it, I'd like some input on Faith's Reward I'm trying to give my Selesnya section a direction and I was interested in "destroy the board" archetype. Basically you jam white hate cards and use green's recursion to break the symmetry. I know this isn't considered fun by...

Started off with a Teysa, Orzhov Scion which is a card I had forgotten, but that I really enjoy. Followed that with a Dusk // Dawn and then a Marionette Master which is one of my favorite cards of the moment. From there I looked to draft something coherent. I gambled on Steel Overseer early as...

Hi, I am (re)building a multiplayer cube and reading your thread it appears that you play MP too! If you have the time I'd like to ask you a few questions: - Do you play free for all MP games or do you use another rule? - You have many 1 drop dudes, many of which have relevance later in the...

I'm trying to get a handle on my Orzhov decks and there are 2 main ones that emerge: Tokens and Good stuff (control or midrange). www.cubetutor.com/cubedeck/1093314[/url]"] Ones 1 Chromatic Star 1 Swords to Plowshares 1 Swords to Plowshares Twos 1 Bitterblossom 1 Hidden Stockpile 1 Zulaport...

So I got a list up (see opening post) and I did 3 drafts. I ended up with www.cubetutor.com/cubedeck/1093112[/url]"] Zeroes 1 Zuran Orb Ones 1 Faithless Looting 1 Greater Gargadon 1 Llanowar Elves Twos 1 Life from the Loam 1 Mind Stone 1 Mind Stone 1 Voice of Resurgence Threes 1 Beast Within...

How much is too much? So I have ramp cards in Temur. I have a sacrifice theme in Mardu. I want to add this package to green: Evolutionary LeapFecundityAwakening ZonePattern of RebirthProtean Hulk Awakening Zone is the perfect tie between tokens and ramp. Leap and Fecundity go well together and...

So, continuing just dumping my thoughts here, since typing out all the different archetypes has made a few things clearer to me: - I'm struggling to make blue control decks. - My Orzhov decks are all over the place. I think I need to make some decklists to see how it looks (there is clearly a...

I'm just posting my thoughts as it helps me keep track of things. - I notice I have the payoffs for a RW reanimator deck, but I'm a little light on the set up cards. In red I have Faithless LootingFaithless LootingMagus of the WheelDaretti, Scrap Savant In white, I have...nothing. This means...

First attempt at cube list is here! I exclusively play multiplayer FFA games of 3-4 players. Lately, I'm getting bored of silly overpowered finishers that take no effort to win the game (for example a player won with a Sepulchral Primordial that reanimated a Restoration Angel). My players seem...

I wholeheartedly agree with the point several of you are making- narrow archetype enabling cards are good, but you cannot have too many of them without the draft feeling on rails and limiting the creativity of your drafters. To that end, I’m trying dbs’ artifact approach where a few spicy cards...

First of all, many thanks for taking the time to read, analyse and answer my post. Much appreciated. I see what you are saying about supporting all 10 shards/wedges. My reasoning was that we noticed that during all of our drafts we end up with easily 30 playable cards, so having some narrow...

I'm in the process of powering down my cube and would appreciate some suggestions in regards to archetypes. I'm looking to build a cube with more synergies and decision making than before and I figured that fleshing out what each shard/wedge/guild/color is trying to do would help greatly. I...

Burning-Tree Emissary Manamorphose Empty the Warrens Here you have spells matter, explosive aggro draws and tokens. What I like is that 2 of the cards are hybrid meaning they slot into more decks which seems important for a small cube. However, you have to try and find something that makes it...

Is Golgari Grave-Troll something that can help pull off that Sultai theme you want Sigh? Meshes well with +1/+1 counters too. It is quite powerful, but situational.

Regarding Tireless Tracker : Thoughts on shipping Kitchen Finks over to the green section and replacing them with a white value engine (like Bygone Bishop)? That way you can even out the CA over different colors and keep those sweet sweet clues!
