I play Shadowmage Infiltrator Psychatog Tezzeret, Agent of Bolas Tezzeret, Agent of Bolas Shadowmage and Psychatog have both been hovering on the cusp of playability. I like Tog enough because it's kind of a unique effect and it's another discard outlet for the decks that want it...

I'm surprised to see Murderous Cut on your low power list, as I would rate that comparably to Doom Blade/Ultimate Price/Go for the Throat, or maybe even ahead and on par with Swords to Plowshares. It has no restriction on what it can target and delve gives a lot of flexibility on cost.

Utility Pack Draft?

Huge leak, looks like about half the set has been spoiled already: https://goodgamery.com/2017/11/rivals-of-ixalan-visual-spoiler/

I like Pernicious Deed but I've tried to steer away from cards that are just "kill a permanent" in multicolour sections, as I think you can find that effect elsewhere and make room for some of the more interesting mulitcolour options. I will add that I absolutely hate Abrupt Decay. "Can't be...

If you want proof that T-Rex was colourful and cuddly, look no further

They're so cuddly!

I agree with you on that point, the BW tokens was just an example, and in practice people will tend to have multiple different themes running across each colour pair. The "Modern Masters" style of cube design is something I greatly dislike.

I could draft tonight, time zone depending - I'm GMT.

I don't think it's mono colour cards which are only playable in certain colour pairs, but more cards that support the theme of the colour pair. So eg if your BW section's major theme is tokens, as well as Lingering Souls and whatever Sorin takes your fancy, you also have Glorious Anthem and...

How do people feel about Daze compared to Force Spike/Censor? Not so much Miscalc, I feel like that comparison is more to Mana Leak effects.

She's real good with Spirit of the Labyrinth.

Creatures have other benefits as well - at least in my cube, it's a lot easier to tutor for and recur Reclamation Sage compared to Naturalize. (obviously it's very difficult to tutor for Naturalize because it's not in the cube, but if it were)

I mean, if you're starting it in your sideboard 80% of the time that does sound like a purely sideboard card to me. If you sideboard it in so often, why aren't you maindecking it more?

I run Rakdos Cackler Murderous Redcap Falkenrath Aristocrat Grenzo, Dungeon Warden at the moment. I've also at various times run Anathemancer Blightning Terminate Wrecking Ball Olivia Voldaren Murderous Redcap and Falkenrath Aristocrat I'm both very happy with. They each fill several...

There's two main reasons I don't like hand disruption: there's no counterplay, and it takes some of the unpredictability out of the game. At least with other disruption like counterspells you can play around them.

Just back on Kitesail Freebooter, how much hand disruption do you run in your cubes generally? I've just had a look because reading through the discussion I realised I'd never played Mesmeric Fiend/Brain Maggot anyway, and never felt like I wanted them, and I actually only have Duress and Cabal...

I had Legion's Landing in my prerelease pool and I liked it a lot more than I expected. It's very slow, and can be a bit difficult to flip, but if you can get it started it works on its own to give you more time to make more vampires. There were a couple of games I made 10+ vampires with it...

The main problem I see with Overwhelming Insight is that any of the blue draw X spells (Mind Spring, Stroke of Genius, Blue Sun's Zenith, Sphinx's Revelation, Pull from Tomorrow) compete with it, and whilst they're worse at around the same mana expenditure, they're so much better at other points...
