Many tokens are artifacts right? Clues, treasure, powerstone, it all helps it grow

There are multiple options. Chopping the curve down is just one way to achieve it. It does not mean more choices and consequences. If you have many aggro one drops, it does not matter which one you play. If you have an aggro 2 drop and another 2 drop then you have choices. Only going at the...

It is true that aggro does not necessary need 1-drops. However, this implies that aggro is only possible/viable if the midrange start appropriately late, e.g, is relative expensive.

This is a great card. Hits much more than ostracize|ulg it can even be cast against an empty handed to remove something from the yard.

I would say it is so basic

No, I love it. It is balanced. It is way too strong for 3 mana, but it does not cost only 3 mana. That is the point. The conditions are such that you often can only cast it later, similarly to a rancor. That one cost one, but it is very unlikely that you can play it on turn one. Ruinator is...

That is not true. Skaab costs more than a regular three drop. Namely, it makes it harder to cast again as opposed to a normal 3 mana. It is mana wise cheap, very strong, and recursive, but it has quite an additional cost. Yes you can move on to cast another 3 or 4 drop, but on a normal creature...

Yes, you gain some and you lose some. The complexity of cubes which uses all cards (and all abilities) is high. Yes, that werewolf is very nice, but do you need it? Can’t you make a custom without having the bother of night and day? It all depends on your playgroup and how often the cube is...

Well, even less stuff would be to have only cards made by Pete venters. Or only use sets on a certain plane Or only use brushwags

We already have that. rout

Since plants are creatures in magic and artifacts are something artificial, a creature would fit better. That said, maybe have it be a permanent without a type? Or create a new type for these kind of tokens

It sure does make sense. When turning stuff upside down it forces you to rethink. I like that, but it is not an easy task. It probably requires a few passes, and is more likely that you are better off with a complete new game. It is very hard for players who know mtg when the rules are changed a...

Thank you. This was my point exactly. It is probably fun for a few tries and then the novelty wears of and people recognise that it is unbalanced and boring. Not that I mean it cannot be pulled of. On the contrary, but turning the rules upside down requires a different viewpoint and probably a...

I love that they work together. Just like in the books of ya olde age (it was rumoured that these two kept in touch despite the fight between the two brothers if I remember correctly)

The problem with utterly degenerate is that it becomes stale quite quickly. However, what I would do is just use one of your regular cubes and add this rule and see what happens. If you like what happens you can make a special cube

When the engine pieces are the ones with retrace the math changes a bit. The problem with grip and disdain is that they replace themselves with a draw. Suppose a heavy sorcery/instant cube: 1) grip is probably useless since the opponent can play around it by removing its graveyard once. Then...

life from the loam kidding aside, the disdain is only good against expensive cards (and it filters a bit). Grip is only good when the opponent has a large yard, and then it is not of use anymore. Invasive can be too strong since you can retrace. That said, many players do not like playing...

Well, the controller of the enchantment gets an attack when that player plays the enchantment. The other turns not since your opponent won’t attack or break it with something simple. Why make a custom when you have: pariah False prophet pariah is just for one turn, unless you block something...

I completely misread that you meant: Whenever a creature deals combat damage it’s controller sacrifices THAT MANY non-lands permanents and you sacrifice ~. So you will get either alpha striked, token bashed, or flying manned? Doesn’t this leads to board stalls?

I do not want to attack you. You often have a different viewpoint/opinion than many others here. I often agree with your points and your points are valid, as sometimes simultaneously are the points of the others. This sadly and unfairly has the tendency to become a complete brawl of people not...
