Palace Siege is sweet, works as a finisher, helps surviving with the life gain and avoids stalls. Also, the Raise Dead mode is sometimes better and also creates inevitability. Surprisingly, it has been played 70% in the drain 2 mode and 30% in the Raise Dead mode here.

I strongly dislike checklist cards, they are hard to spot, sort and feel like (are?) lazy proxies. Except they are official.

Vivids are, but Grand Coliseum was always terrible for me, and never worth running instead of a basic land. The decks that are slow enough to run it don't want to take the pings, and the decks that need the colored mana don't want to take so many pings either.

Since we are in the right thread, I have to point out that drafting a proxy is not the same thing to me emotionally as drafting the real card. Stupid? Yes. But we are partly emotional and partly rational beings. Mechanically, this is the best approach I can think of. In some reddit thread I...

Almost all the old-bordered red cards we run are burn. Maybe red just wants to have burn for all tastes, since the creatures are so bad. Slice and Dice Firebolt Rolling Thunder Browbeat Acidic Soil Incinerate Chain Lightning

I think the Kami is more interesting, even considering this: War Priest of Thune

I really think transform is fun as well, but there's a complexity cost incurred, and sometimes both sides are too complex. I see they tried to keep Arlinn Kord simple, but the others? :confused: I'm not against using any of these cards specifically, but opening a cube booster and reading 15...

My early nominees: Archangel Avacyn Arlinn Kord Collective Brutality Collective Defiance Collective Effort Relentless Dead Sage of Ancient Lore Ulrich of the Krallenhorde Adding to the subtlety, whenever I go back to MTGS to see what's going on, I get sad. They evaluate a single axis...

Celestial Colonnade and Creeping Tar Pit are high power cards that should be treated as threats, not just utility lands. The others range from situational to good, and I like them as late game mana sinks. To be fair, I haven't tested the enemy creaturelands yet. I wouldn't run Wasteland for the...

Leonin Bola Fair Opposition. Too fair?

Well, power level wise, Volley is clearly better. Which do you think is most interesting though?

Cackling FlamesBrimstone Volley

Just completing the other ones I think are usable for the sake of documentation. Though I have tried all but Molten-Tail Masticore and Thraben Gargoyle in the past and they weren't great. Molten-Tail Masticore Palladium Myr Pilgrim's Eye Silent Arbiter Thraben Gargoyle Stuffy Doll Triskelion...

Yeah, you should filter for mod_main to see the main module, which is 320 cards (no lands, they are separate, so equivalente to 360). I don't really find it difficult to find cool cards to include in any section besides artifact creatures at the power level I am, that's why I'm asking for help...

Wrong board again ._. Can someone please move to Cube Talk?

This is consistently the weakest section of my cube, and I really having a good number around to fill spot in decks that are short of creatures. That said, the pool of decent artifact creatures is really shallow. I currently run, and many of these are questionable: Brass Man Hangarback Walker...

Discard outlets are plentiful, but things that like being discarded are not (and need to compose most of the module). I have Deep Analysis and Vengevine in high consideration. I'd actually have used Vengevine if I had one, it's at 22 bucks right now (in 5 years somebody will read this and laugh...

I'm building a madness module which will either be 0% or 100% in a draft. The biggest challenges are white, where I've used a reanimator theme, and surprisingly green, in which I had to dabble in threshold for the lack of "things that like being discarded". Another thing I found is that...

So much has to go right for this to be decent.
