All I know is that I love the phrase "Grim Monolith Cube".

The Cubes here are very varied. Multiple gravecrawlers is reasonably popular and present in quite a few lists, but even that isn't universal. As far as I can remember, only Jason is using multiple Wastelands. On the land draft, I've actually moved ALL the lands into a separate draft which is...

I'm extremely skeptical on the impact. These cards need to be good without heroic. I mean, I'm only running 7 heroic creatures total split between 3 colors. Adding {R} to the casting cost of a creature to give it haste is pretty harsh, particularly since if the creature dies while attacking I...

Here is my list of cards that are going in or are being considered for inclusion, which I am writing as much for me to remember as anything else: Flickering Ward Wispmare Pack Rat Skylasher (Pro-Blue will be changed to either "Protection from Flying Creatures" or "+2/+2 when blocking a...

Sorin Markov is ok, but seeing him in the same thread as Sorin's Vengeance is really making me wonder how much he's actually worth. The -3 is the real issue I think. It comes up occasionally, but its usually not very vital.

I don't think any of those cards are very good, unfortunately. Conviction is in the same vein and seems seriously weak. Giving a creature color protection of your choice is Seriously Good. I am considering Squee's Embrace and Undying Rage, with the latter perhaps at 1R as aggressive in theme...

Hopeful Eidolon is pretty pathetic. Its two effects that are pretty awful and the fact that it is both of them isn't much consolation. Gift of Orzhova has been much less pathetic. Flying is key here. Spikeshot has been good, but it doesn't do much as a 1 drop. Benevolent Bodyguard isn't...

I don't know how, but I completely missed Flickering Ward as a card. I mean, it protects your voltroned dudes, is reusable AND can repeatedly trigger heroic. Perfect card just needs a slot. . .

I was just thinking I had too many red sweepers in my cube, I guess if I were to ask which one I should cut this would be the answer.

Salt Flats just has the most epic art, I really need to just sharpy over the "comes into play tapped" line and run it over Caves of Kolas. Cubewise, I think this design is above my paygrade. With such a small cardpool that isn't easily accessible or synergistic, its going to be really hard to...

Wow, that's a nice list of interactions. You have convinced me to spend the .25 on this card!

Oversold cemetery has been awful for me. I don't run the fastest cube ever, but it is fast enough so that this card has been pretty much a dead draw. I was having the same crisis of faith when revamping my black section. The spots were extremely limited and it was difficult justifying cards...

Going on that angle, I think I'd rather Nightbird's Clutches, though the five mana mode on Glarewielder might be frighteningly relevant sometimes. Thanks for being on the lookout.

Carionette is a real blast from the past for me, how is that card playing out? It seems like a great card to throw into an Intuition pile. Recurring Nightmare seems overpushed for your power level? Is it game dominating? Have you considered Strands of Night? I really should get a 5th...

I'm looking for a baller blue aggro dude that gets offensive results. How do you think this plays: Latch Seeker 2.0 UU Spirit 3/1 Unblockable and can't block Rationale: Latch Seeker sucks. True-Name Nemesis is just to same card +10,000 other things. It seems fair to get the offensive...

Gray Merchant is an absolute bomb, that's for sure. I agree with you on white devotion: a six mana card that directly competes with every card names elspeth and a god with a poor passive is not really where I want to be, but that could all change soon!

Its true! I keep mulitples out of my cube and instead fill it with crap like "White/Blue Heroic" just to keep this place honest.

The creature part of the gods don't need to be directly answered: you can kill the other permanents to lower devotion. The non-creature effects of the gods are all things you can play around and don't really require removal EXCEPT for perhaps Purphuros who can just generate obscene amounts of...

Not that they count for much, but I just cubetutor drafted this deck where arena athlete looks pretty nice. I think I'll leave him in at least for a couple drafts and if he never makes a deck or never triggers I have a nice shortlist of dudes to try. www.cubetutor.com/cubedeck/56426[/url]"]...

Mana cost is an issue, I don't think Pyreheart is going to work. If I go in on the haste enablers, Keldons are good. Goblins are certainly in the "turn off blockers" niche that I'm exploring and probably not any MORE awful then the guys I'm considering. Adder Staff seems awful and if Ember...
