I really like Loamcrafter Faun which I don't think I've seen many other people talk about. Obviously not a super high power card but it's simple, has a solid rate for mid and low power, has a super unique effect, and overlaps with a bunch of different synergies (blink stuff, lands stuff, discard...

@Brad "Experiment Ten" goes hard as fuck as a card name good shit dude.

Updates Never thought I would see the day! My little cube night has already gotten popular enough with my friends that this month I had to size the cube up to 450 to accommodate 10 drafters. You can see the full list of changes on my recent Cube Cobra blog post here (with a couple small...

https://cubecobra.com/cube/deck/da4fed67-ee88-4f49-b3e3-ffbaa447b0c0 Built this RW aggro deck with a light equipment theme. I think Kellan being able to fetch up Grafted Wargear all the time could be pretty nasty! Came up a little short on aggro creatures I think, would've liked to see a few...

I like these, some fit the description better than others. Also depends on how extreme your control decks are in terms of not playing creatures. Snare Thopter High-Speed Hoverbike Fleetwheel Cruiser Surgehacker Mech Untethered Express Infiltration Lens Welding Jar Stonecoil Serpent Monoskelion...

Might make more sense for this to only trigger on nontoken creatures? As it stands there isn't that much of a reason to ever regenerate the token if you just get another one for free when it dies as long as you enchanted yourself.

Wonder if this is part of them trying to bridge the recent standard sets mechanically.

I run Golden Argosy and it's been quite strong. It's definitely slow so it will most likely show up in more grindy decks but you are correct that the 3/6 stats mean it will get to attack a lot, and it can also play strong defense in a pinch. The fact that it can blink multiple things at once...

Re: power outliers, yeah Resto is definitely a card that I have considered cutting on power a few times and there's certainly a few others that are borderline too good (Timeless Dragon, Woe Strider, Master of Death, Blade Splicer to name a few). For now I think I'm okay with there being some...

Ophiomancer is extremely strong on defense and not particularly useful for offense, so I would only include it if you're wanting that slot purely as a defensive piece with occasionally useful synergistic upside. Unlike Bitterblossom which can fill all three of those roles or Jadar which only...

Hey hi, so I recently started organizing a new monthly cube night with the girls and thought it would be fun to finally get a blog post going about my main cube. You can find the list here. Origins This cube started its life as the Card Kingdom Starter Cube 3.3, which I picked up shortly after...

Whoops sorry gang had a busy week! Thank you so much for all the fantastic suggestions. This is a great place to start and I definitely feel like I can use this as a springboard to start putting something together :) Some thoughts on stuff that came up: Stax: I don't think I would want to...

Hi, so I've recently become particularly enamored with the look of Magic cards from the period of Mirage block to Onslaught block (1996-2003) and have been thinking about constructing a small cube focused on that era of Magic. Problem is, I was not really an active player during this time (my...

glad we are beginning to crest the wave of avant-garde cube posting

Considering for my pushed Jumpstart cube: Malcolm, Alluring Scoundrel This card seems pretty messed up. Not a huge fan of stuff that uses unique counters on a creature cus it can get kinda confusing with +1/+1 counters but def wanna see what this thing can do. Jadelight Spelunker This card ALSO...

Idk if you already knew this but Brother's War Commander did give us a "canon" way of doing old border colored artifacts (see Mnemonic Sphere) but they're not actually brown so it probably doesn't quite what you're going for.

Oh I like this! Mostly just designs I like and cards I enjoy running almost anywhere :) White: Doomed Traveler There's a million variations of this effect but this one is my favorite. The flavor and art are a home run with this card, just a beautiful piece that perfectly captures what the card...

well im convinced

For some low-mid power options that are worth putting in decks in retail+ environments, I like: Renegade Freighter Untethered Express Golden Argosy

I like Vehicles! I think you can slot them into a similar part of your brain where you slot Equipment, because they are not really threats on their own and you need a creature in play to make them do anything. So a deck really only wants like 1 or 2 of them at most, and you probably want them to...
