    Aston's Cube

    I do love Flickerwisp, but I already run Restoration Angel and Kor Skyfisher as similar effects and I'm a bit wary of including too much flicker as it does add to on-board complexity. I couldn't fault anyone for doubling up. e: Sorcery speed flickering isn't so bad actually with regard to...

    I'm a big Vendilion Clique fan. It does a bit of everything but it never feels too oppressive, and is very skill testing.

    Riptide Laboratory in the ULD and human being a relevant type.

    Rishkar was the other one on my list. I'll give him and Nissa a try.

    General The Draft Exchange

    I have noticed I'm a bit short on green 3s, at the moment I only have 4: Eternal Witness, Courser of Kruphix, Yavimaya Elder and Reclamation Sage. I want to get Tireless Tracker in there soon and I feel like I had another one lined up I wanted to try but it's escaping me at the moment. Are...

    Adding a sorcery speed restriction to his ability would go a long way.

    I think the idea with Stockpile is that paired with Braids you'll never run out of fuel.

    General Changing Keywords to make cards competitive

    Here’s my solution: https://imgur.com/a/G21TT So far I’ve just been telling people that this is a thing in my cube, and briefly why (“because protection sucks”) and even though sometimes they complain, it turns out they still play and still take the swords. I think that as the cube designer...

    I'd just change cards and not tell anyone. Who would really remember if Not Forgotten is an instant or sorcery. E: Using the proxy method if that wasn't clear.

    So what (if any) cards from Unstable are people looking at? I have my eye on a few: Amateur Auteur - An upgrade to Ronom Unicorn and Ancient Kami in most cubes due to the creature type. Shadows over Innistrad is my preference for the version. Jackknight - I don't currently support the artifact...

    Card/Deck The Orzhov Syndicate (WB)

    I do remember him saying that he cut it but I can't quite remember why. In any case, BFZ block might have given it a small boost, and I know Jason's cube is a high power level so it might be more effective in a lower powered environment.

    You could try Drifter il-dal My suspicion is that the upkeep cost means it's not going to be any good in that archetype on turn 1, but it is still relevant later in the game so it might do the trick.

    A card that encourages you to try and make your opponent laugh? Sounds like dour serious time for me.

    I had Urza in a draft today, I -6'd him once and got Nicol Bolas, Planeswalker's ultimate. He went straight in the cube after that.
