For my 720-card Legacy-ish power level Cube: Descendant of Storms Ainok Strike Leader Voice of Victory Clarion Conqueror Voracious Bibliophile Transcendent Dragon Rot-Curse Rakshasa Sinkhole Surveyor Avenger of the Fallen Stadium Headliner Sunset Strikemaster Tersa Lightshatter Will of the...

I would happily Cube this if it were an adventure. I like 4MV dragons, they make for seriously under appreciated threats, even in modern-era Magic. As a split card, I just don't really want either side enough, but they would be more than the sum of their parts of I could have both. Like I've...

Seems totally fine. I like the design but wish it was one less mana or instant speed.

I honestly don't need to be talked into a 3/3 flyer for 2C with upside all that much. With how pushed and value-generating the premiere 2 and 3 drops of the last few years have been, it's an area I'd really like to see more exploration of. White 3s are really tough. It's one of the most...

A new Acidic Slime! I still think I'm going to skip all Omen cards for the confusion they'll certainly cause with Adventure, but this is a modal one that works pretty well as a split card and if I get enough Omens I'm hot on, I'll probably try it out. Unless you're a color balance absolutist, I...

I love Smirking Spelljacker but this is a REALLY COOL DRAGON (with much better art) and it also costs UU, making it harder to just throw it into any deck. As I'm looking to de-power my Cube, these kinds of changes are looking more appealing.

I mean, not to me as much, in all honesty. I don't mind most UB cards either like so many folks do, and will mind it less with the axing of the awful UB frame. That said, it does water down the "Cube as a museum of Magic" thing, and so many pushed modern cards can easily invalidate old...

We just got this, which feels like it's generally stronger than the ~12 year old Doomed Traveler because it can (eventually) attack for more and plays into common artifact synergies: Nesting Bot This design space seems under-explored for how much WotC loves tokens and hyping up 1-drops these...

this convinced me to reconsider Birthing Ritual even though it's a big block of text

I really like this design for a red deck. Single cards that get the gears turning, while still hitting really hard, are great. I also love the amount of words used here -- not very many for all the possibilities he represents. Very grokable. Very cool.

With 720 cards, my five most-represented sets in Cube are: Modern Horizons 3 (33) Modern Horizons 2 (26) Outlaws of Thunder Junction (23, 10 from BIG) Wilds of Eldraine (21) Lord of the Rings (18) And then just outside of the top 5: Lost Caverns of Ixalan / Duskmourn / Aetherdrift (17) I...

I wish the mountain in the basic cycle was more evocative of the show. Mt. Bikini Bottom looks like it debuted in Season 7 and aired in 2011. Considering every other moment captured in the Secret Lair is from the pre-movie run (generally considered the golden age of the Sponge), this is an...

That was me! Goodness, the RTR block completely revolutionized my Cube, particularly enemy guilds. From the earliest list I have any my best recollection, my original Simic section as a 450-card unpowered list was: Temporal Spring Mystic Snake Edric, Spymaster of Trest Coiling Oracle I...

I really really love this card. I would be playing it myself as a "one-card archetype enabler" thing but Blue is too popular in my group, it's just not feasible with people forcing the color and the wealth of fixing available. Demilich is great too, another card I'd find a way to play if I had...

Fire // Ice Flametongue Kavu Vindicate Aura Shards Fires of Yavimaya Phyrexian Delver Captain Sisay Wash Out Do or Die Death or Glory Man, Death or Glory is sweet. I really don't like this era of Magic art (Invasion -> Mirrodin), but there's some really sweet evocative stuff in there.

This card is actually really fun and works in paper without adjustment. Nice little mind game that doesn't feel oppressive at this mana value. If I were to be comfortable running Arena-only cards, I'd be very interested in this one. Double team sucks as a mechanic but it does play very well...

How could I forget!!!! I was looking at it again in my recent Bits and Bobs update to better support Stridehangar Automaton!!! It's a great card, and was a big improvement for me over Rapacious Guest. Definitely will resleeve that one.

this makes it seem exceedingly fair!! Today WotC posted the Planeswalker's Guide to Tarkir Part 2 and it looks like they defanged Sultai quite a bit. I'm not too mad about it, because the aesthetic is extremely strong and good, but I didn't hate the prior one either, even if it was a little...

For recent secret lair drops, the "generic" bonus card is one of several zombies, each from the modern era and in the retro frame for the first time. As a huge fan of the retro frame, this makes me very happy, but so far, none of these zombies was going to make it into my Cube as so many cards...
