    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    I had the same ideas as you so I guess I'm not as misguided as I thought! I think the Shaman would just destroy my graveyard decks. I like the Fiend Artisan, not so much because of the pod ability but because it can be very big! First, an easy switch: Thought Scour Opt Consider Consider Cube...

    "Fast" multiplayer cube

    I've toyed with Oath of Druids but it hasn't worked well. You need to build around it to a very high degree, it has no redundancy and most of the time just leads to decks that don't work. When the decks did work, they felt oppressive and not fun to play against. There are many issues with the...

    Sets (MID) Innistrad: Midnight Hunt

    I found it very easy to support human themes tying in blink and recursion. On the other hand, I found it difficult to truly support Gravecrawler because zombies are usually only in black.

    Sets (MID) Innistrad: Midnight Hunt

    Instant addition to the cube. Goodbye Opt! I won't replace Shock with the improved version because I don't find the marginal gain enough to justify the additional text, though.

    Sacrificing two creatures is a lot. I think you are better off with other sacrifice outlets.

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    Ok, more work on the cube. First, Nightpack Ambusher -> Collected Company Out Stonecoil Serpent Cruel Ultimatum Nooooo, not a pet card! How could you Erik. Ah, also Stonecoil Serpent which is no longer necessary and was a bit of a filler choice anyways. I agree it's no longer as necessary...

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    3 mana is a lot. Even getting infinite doom blades for five mana via Shriekmaw is expensive and that's after you manage to put it into the graveyard and build a deck around it.

    Oh I see. I thought you could, perhaps the ruling was different or I was just misremembering because I read it here haha.

    You activate it at your opponent's cleanup step.

    It returns to hand at the beginning of the next cleanup step. Hence you can activate it in your opponent's turn, untap, use it again and then return it to hand.

    Note that this can get you two lands per time it returns to your hand.

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    For me the biggest question is: How important is Rancor when you can run Bonesplitter? Because while giving trample and having a slighty reduced cost are important, I'm not sure they justify a green slot instead of an artifact one. I've also been considering running Double Vouchers like Shamizy...

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    I want to see what happens without it. Here's the thing: I've often felt a card was completely unreplaceable because it's too universally useful only to realize the card could be replaced by another or a group of cards and get a better result. In fact, there's another "no way this gets cut" that...

    Erik's "The cool side of Magic" cube

    Some minor changes. First some cards that aren't doing anything or that aren't pushing my archetypes. Voracious Hydra Body Double Gather The Townsfolk Harmonic Prodigy Some additions. Hangarback is a dangerous card, though. Hangarback Walker Village Rites And a replacement Electrolyze ->...

    Seems to me you played a well-made but ultimately plain cube and you are looking for something more interesting.
