    yeah, but there's other ways that don't rely on running a ton of pump spells. Mox Diamond adds more explosive starts and resiliency, and only requiring one Berserk makes it easier to draw into the combo kill and doesn't dilute your deck as much. Heck, if we're talking dream scenarios let's go...

    General MTGO 'Vintage Cube'

    so I realized why calling this the Vintage Cube was irking me, on a level beyond the facile '9 pieces of power in 540 cards' thing. It's because I remembered Mike Lucas, who actually keeps a "Vintage Constructed Cube" of his own and plays 60-card games. (if you draft a card not on the Vintage...

    I'll throw something together in a variety of sizes if you can send me your files as a baseline.

    I tried your original version but only had to chain cascade once (ending with Ancestral Vision, gross) to want a different version. Maybe I jumped the gun a little but even a single cascade is good, let alone cascading 4>2>1 every turn. Also my roommate isn't super good with the stack and the...

    Wildfire, a slow bomb-heavy cube, big sorcery-speed draw If you're okay with custom cards I'm pretty stoked about the faster-yet-clearly-still-busted Izzet Pyrocrat, though I haven't gotten to test it yet.

    Bring To Light is actually pretty good here but yeah the availability of storm enablers was real dicy. I did two test drafts and an abortive third one, here's the best """storm"""" deck I could make and any kind of 4+storm play literally needs Power or proximate-Power...

    It's a 540, the 360 full power experience rules though and I agree with you

    General MTGO 'Vintage Cube'

    So Adam Prosak is announcing that the Holiday Cube will now be the Vintage Cube. Here's the skinny on the changes: -no Time Vault b/c it's too strong -Storm is "really difficult to pull off", powered by draw-7s and artifact mana -Painlands are out and temples are in, because fuck any kind of...

    The Dandy Cube (Chris Taylor's Cube)

    Cacherunners is going in my Cube! Could Overthrow maybe be 'opponent sacrifices creature they control w/ greatest toughness' to be a cleaner answer to voltron strategies, hexproof and other tricky shenanigans Can the white command get any Plains instead of a basic? Still seems fine I think...

    Small Gods is def playable i really like that actually. what if it was re-flavoured as some kind of clerk or magi-legal assistant? Or a religious novitiate? Shrine Maiden {1}{W} Creature - Human Monk When Shrine Maiden ETBs, recover an instant or sorcery w/ CMC<=1. There's more to life than...

    Centaur Healer is an alright 3 if you want incidental life-gain, but yeah.

    General Print this Wizards! (So I can put it in my cube)

    I think soft locks are fun in Cube so imo just the right side of unfair. It's an awful lot of mana and still reasonably disruptable. Speaking of: fair, unfair, can I get some feedback on this babe? I was gonna run a Ground Seal/Elvish Visionary bro but Eidolon of Blossoms isn't really my...

    General Is this a deck?

    It's the most fair of the Moxen imo, and the only one I run. I don't think it's Power, those are just the cubes where I get to do that kind of thing more often. Academy Ruins goes in any deck you'd want Trading Post in, and synergizes with spellbombs, artifact creatures and graveyard strategies...

    I like Dream but Ruthgart and Ooze seem clunky. Maybe he needs "another target creature" and it wants a cheaper activation, since it only happens once and presumably you'd be holding it up at that point?

    General Is this a deck?

    What you can do, and which Loam enables, is combine Academy Ruins and Mox Diamond to always put a card on top of your (empty) library (play mox diamond, choose not to discard a land, recur w/ ruins. Loam dredges both pieces into your yard and then recurs Ruins) and deck someone out that way...
