    No Free Lunches, A Cube

    These are good points. I think I've figured out what I meant to say. @Jerichoalar--Oh, those are some COOL cards. Thanks for the suggestions! I especially like Reality Acid, though it's probably a little too low-powered for the cube at this point. Maybe a custom that's slightly cheaper or...

    So that was a freaking lie. I've gone ahead and torn things down, then built back up. W and G still need a little more love, but it's feeling good. My biggest change is the first thing in bold (hybrid cards), but the idea I'm most interested in is way at the very end (archetypes vs themes), the...

    Sublime Epiphany Cryptic Command I saw these two mentioned together and couldn't believe they've never met here in the pit. Do they even fulfill the same role? Personally, I've been thinking of Cryptic Command as a midrange Swiss-army knife for a mono-Blue/Ux deck whereas Sublime Epiphany is...

Luckily, Zendikar Rising spoilers gave me the kick in the pants I needed to...

Most of the snow cards from Modern Horizons are great...

    Thank you both for the feedback! This is really helpful. And to the half-dozen other drafters, thank you as well; you're my first outside data points, so it's given me a ton of perspective on what someone who's not me would do with this environment. @blacksmithy--I didn't even realize that...

    Themes Themes are meant to be more suggestive rather than prescriptive. Your lunch isn't free, make it yourself! As many interesting engine pieces as possible are shunted to the artifact section to allow them to pop up in atypical color combinations; this is one of the primary reasons for...

    No Free Lunches, A Cube

    Long time lurker, first-time poster, blah blah blah blah. You all make some rich, dense cubes, and as quarantine drags on I tinker with my cube more and more, hoping that by the time my playgroup meets again mine will stand up well. So! A first draft...
