GRAVEYARD DUELS CubeCobra This is a 180 card cube designed for 2 players, mainly grid drafting. Design elements -Low power, high sinergy. -Low budget, most cards cost less than 1€ and only a few of them cost more than 2€. -Aimed at grid drafting with 2 players. The power band is as tight...

After a lot of tinkering I finally think I have a definitive list that I am happy with! This thread is already full of posts talking about the old version of the cube and I would like some space to explain all the aspects of the design so I will start another thread and do a proper presentation...

Haunted Dead VS Call the Bloodline I want a budget alternative to Cryptbreaker as a card that glues token/sacrifice with graveyard/discard (and that works well with Hogaak, Arisen Necropoli).

I already have Myr Battlesphere in and had Scuttling Doom Engine before its just that I don't know how important is it that red in specific have one 7+ creature to signal/reward playing gruul ramp (taking into account that Gruul Fires is one of the archetypes I want to support).

Ok so I ended making some changes to push a bit more the artifact theme: OUT Alesha, Who Smiles at Death Icy Manipulator Carrier Thrall Llanowar Elves IN Pia Nalaar Weaponcraft Enthusiast Scrapheap Scrounger Gilded Goose So now that I have a decent density of artifacts creation and...

I've considered it but maybe it is too slow? Already have one of this but yeah it is very good. I don't know how low power does my cube need to be for this to be good enough but yeah for now I'll try this one. I'm also thinking of including Gala Greeters in this spot, it is a payoff instead...

Yeah I can see that to be a problem. I really like this card but it is a bit too expensive for me to consider it. EDIT: What about this guy? Vitaspore Thallid

Saproling Migration VS thallid shell dweller I need a green 2-drop that helps with token/sacrifice and since I don't use planeswalkers I don't want to include Verdant Command.

After a lot of time I am finally upgrading this cube again. The cubecobra page (link in my signature and in the main post) is updated with all the planned changes. So, when I first started making this cube my budget was very low so I had to include a lot of cards simply because I already had...

I know I can include both and they would fulfill different roles, but I was specifically searching for a blue ramp target that could fit in a variety of decks and my cube have very limited space (180 cards) so I think there is only room for one of them.

Hi all, first post in a while here! Waker of Waves VS Mirrorshell Crab I'm upgrading my cube and I have a hard time chosing between these two cards which fulfill basically the same role (blue ramp targets with graveyard sinergy and playable in U/G Flash).

So with the final changes I think I'm happy enough with the cube to buy the cards! I've ordered them and in about a week I can start playing it with my partner, I will update then with the feelings I've had.

That's a very insightful response! Thank you a lot! I can see the problem with 2 drops. I tried to have 2 drops that enabled Aristocrats while having use in other archetypes but now I see that with 3 of my black 2 drops this other archetypes are all control (Orzhov Enforcer, Reassembilng...

Just when I thought the cube was close to a good enough state for buying the cards and start playing with it, someone pointed to me that I don't have enough one drops to support aggro. I thought that having only tempo and sacrifice decks be able to go aggresive would've make the need for one...

Yeah, I was trying to have the same exact number of cards in each color just for aesthetic reasons. Just forgetting about it will help with decision paralysis. So, some changes I made based on feedback I recently got: Wayfarer's Bauble -> Reclamation Sage Guild Globe -> Brimstone Volley...

First post updated. Also, there is a change I'm not sure how to do it but really want to: Gurmag Angler -> Tasigur, the Golden Fang I don't like vanilla cards and Tasigur seems like the best replacement but I really don't want there to be a Sultai card and no Jund one. The way to go about this...

So with the latest changes I feel that I tackled most of the things I didn't like about the cube relative to archetypes and sinergies. All archetypes seem drafteable and the lack of specific themes in b/x decks doesn't seem that much of a problem to me now because I've realised that it is...

After some more drafts in cubecobra I think I've decided to do the changes I've planned: -Blue seems like the best color so definitely cutting out Aetherling. -Didn't get drawn towards Gruul Sacrifice in any draft, so I'm getting Thromok in. -Graveyard decks seemed a bit lackluster so more...

Some changes I'm considering: Borborygmos Enraged -> Thromok the Insatiable Swapping a card that didn't seem like that much of a payoff for being in the deck for a card that signals towards the other gruul deck. Sultai Scavenger -> Tombstalker A card that seemed a bit too weak for a real...

I did some drafts in cubecobra and here are some of the decks I drafted: Ones 1 Greater Gargadon 1 Dread Wanderer 1 Grim Lavamancer 1 Bone Splinters 1 Faithless Looting 1 Pillar of Flame Twos 1 Lightning Mauler 1 Zulaport Cutthroat 1 Reassembling Skeleton 1 Dusk Legion Zealot 1 Cast Down 1...
