What kind of work has Seance done for you. I'm pushing the hell out of recursion in black, but I'd like some non-black cards that can act as enablers for creatures that want to be recurred.

Overrun's purpose is to end the game and to that end so the trample is very relevant. It's the green deck's (much less impressive) Armageddon in that you cast it once you are ahead and then you win the game. I've had success with the card, but it is one of the green cards I first look at each...

The cube in current form have only be drafted once. Swarmyard hasn't been played yet, but it has a big number of targets. If I add pack rat and/or Skylasher, which I'm considering, it should be a bonifide stud, but time will tell. On further inspection, Boros Elite is definitely horrible...

Not only are there three great cards with the same cost as him, but he is extremely similar in functionality to Garruk Wildspeaker. He's clearly very good and if you want to take red/green into creature based ramp directions he's your go-to unless you are like one of my friends who hits...

Vorapede is a beast, though it is awfully similar to Thragtusk. He gives much better Devotion and ends the game like a champ, though. I'm think Arbor Colosuss is the weak link, with that New Card Smell tainting my judgment. It would be nice to be able to block fliers though, I need to think...

Now that is pushed to where I need it to be.

Sorin, Sangromancer {B}{B} +1 Each player loses a life -2 Target opponent loses 2 life and you gain 2 life -7 Destroy all creatures. You gain life equal to the number of creatures destroyed this way. 2 Loyalty Stupid?

A pushed Highway Robber variant that doesn't Cost 5 Mana would be really helpful here. Where is Chris Taylor to make this card so I can put it in my cube? I mean, what's reasonable for this effect on, say, a 2 mana creature? Can we get a 1B 2/1 that drains 2? How far can we push it at BB? And...

I run 2 Green and 2 Black Devotion cards, plus the Red god without much of a hope to turn him on. He's probably a loose pick and will likely turn into an Avalanche Rider/Goblin Settler sooner or later. For Green ramp finishers I've got Your Favorite Card, Pelakka Wurm, Rampaging Baloths...

I think I want to put Thragtusk in this pile. Would you rather drop Arbor Colosuss or Wolfir Silverhear? A fatty that shoots fliers or a dude who chucks 12 power onto the table?

I'm planning on swapping out Sejiri Steppe for it. High Market, though, is the real utility land beast here. Maybe Diamond Valley, but not tapping for mana is brutal.

Bottle Gnomes have been in my cube for as long as I can remember. It was probably in my first one. If I had known cube was going to become a thing (wink, James, wink), I'd have written it down. The chance of them leaving is approximately 0%. Granted, the fact they have been in my cube for as...

The sickening realization that something we thought only we were smarter enough to appreciate is actually no more witty then any other pop culture foot note. I hate that feeling.

I hate constructed magic discussion, particularly in the small cardpool formats. Everything is so jargon laden that even though I understand everything being said I can do nothing but roll my eyes and think to myself what huge fucking nerds these people are. Then I complain about them on a...

Without a hint of sarcasm, the worst card ever printed. Ruined early magic in a way that Mind Twist could have only dreamed of doing. Strip Mine is good enough for me not to want to run, but not good enough to compete with those cards.

Soul Warden is a strong card, I've run it for years with no theme backing it up and it rocks. Bottle Gnomes rock, I don't know how many times this dude has been is winning decks, its ridiculous. Why does Path of Bravery suck? When I read the spoiler, I immediately assumed it sucked too...

Right now my big issues are as follows: 1) I completely overhauled the cube for the Commander/Theros updates, so I'm sure some ratios are a little off, so if something seems funny or something extremely fitting is missing, say something. 2) Black is in flux right now as I work with the...

http://www.cubetutor.com/viewcube/96403 This is my cube now. It is still under construction. Comments and ideas are always welcome.

A couple of Cube threads have mentioned using Life Gain as a Thing and I was wondering if it could work. At first, I was extremely skeptical, but now I am actually starting to believe this could be a fun theme in Black/White that doesn't need very much support to make happen as many of the cards...

Is Sanguine Bond at all useful outside of stupid combos? I'm really struggling to come up with cards that work here.
