    This looks like an interesting instant/sorcery enabler.

    Aggro Synergy Cube by silasw

    I haven't drafted that many times since I beefed up the main archetypes, so pretty much everything is still in the testing period. (Except the {U}{R} deck, there's one guy who always drafts that.) There are plenty of individually powerful cards in the cube, so players haven't been going for the...

    Aggro Synergy Cube by silasw

    Here's a deck I drafted last night. It was a 4-man draft and I barely had enough playables but I managed to go 2-0. www.cubetutor.com/cubedeck/1123041[/url]"] Ones 1 Avacyn's Pilgrim 1 Blossoming Defense 1 Noble Hierarch 1 Preordain Twos 1 Glory-Bound Initiate 1 Lightning Greaves 1...

    Aggro Synergy Cube by silasw

    I started this cube years ago as just a pile of cards I liked to play. I gradually evolved it using a blend of Riptide theory and traditional cube orthodoxy, and I feel like it's in a pretty nice spot. https://cubecobra.com/cube/list/1ou Powered: No Singleton: Yes Silver-bordered cards: Yes...

    Here you go Galactic: Lantern of InsightPerpetual Timepiece I think that the shenanigans you're trying to pull with these are just too cute. I can't really see Lantern doing enough in a real game to be considered better than a creature or a direct interaction spell.

    @Chris Taylor: Avatar of the Resolute This seems like a really awkward counters payoff. Not a fan of the double-green cost, plus it's awkward on the curve because you want to play it after the stuff that has counters. Field of Ruin Without any crazy lands in the cube like Academy Ruins, Gaea's...

    This is a nice enabler. Searches for Gravecrawler, Hangarback, Ballista, or just a white 1 drop for aggro. Is this thing good enough with random tribal synergies to be worth running over a 3/1 that actually has abilities? I really want to play this but it's hard to spare the Rakdos slot...

    Card/Deck +1/+1 Counters

    I would like to revisit this archetype in light of all the sweet new stuff in War of the Spark. The new Proliferate cards are much stronger than the old ones: The Amass mechanic is an interesting bridge between the +1/+1 counter archetype and the zombie archetype. Plus this set has a bunch...

    The print run isn't limited. If your local store tries to gouge you, don't fall for it.

    General The Draft Exchange

    Here's what I got from ravnic's cube. Red/green stompy, quite low to the ground. Started with Llanowar Elves because it was a safe choice. It was interesting figuring out what themes were supported as I went through. I didn't see very many 1-drop creatures in pack 1 so I was pretty surprised...

    Let's say I'm trying to make an artifact-y aggro deck happen. Do I need a high-risk high-reward card or a more consistent but less exciting incentive card? Shrapnel BlastGalvanic Blast (Or both, even?)

    I would certainly try Inspiring Statuary before KCI. Seems like it has similar incentives but it's much easier to get the payoff. Inspiring Statuary
