Oh, I get it. It's why I enjoy mill in my cube so much. I wrote a little blurb about it in the original post of my cube blog under Card & Mechanics Spotlight. A card that I really love is: Wall of Lost Thoughts And with your lack of a blink package, could be a viable option for you? It might...

Is more than 4 in white necessary? You have Kor Skyfisher, Shepherd of the Flock, Emancipation Angel, and Leave // Chance...as well as Angelic Purge to deal with Demonic Pact, and Charming Prince as more blink support....not to mention a once in a blue moon convoluted blink engine around...

Yep. Life is short. Run the zombie, and add Vesperlark back #teamdynamism lmao

I was very interested in this card when it first spoiled, but I have never tested it. To oversimplify it's a 3 mana do-nothing. You slot it in to take advantage of things a deck is already doing, because it needs other cards to have value as it neither immediately impact the board nor does is...

In a vacuum, I'm more interested in Shambler due to the higher upside. Ingredient is the more versatile of the two, but its ceiling to me is "serviceable glue", never upset to have, but never excited either. As a glue card, would it be filling a design hole? A poor man's Doomed Traveler isn't...

Nemesis of Reason is a red flag for me, and feels like it could be Jace, Memory Adept for your environment. You have a slower environment with a less than robust removal package. You will probably find it being drafted outside of any archetype concerns as a bomb. I really like Codex Shredder as...

If we are still looking for an 8th I can draft, but won't be able to play.

I've stared at this question for close to an hour now lol.....maybe it's because it's been a particularly long Monday at work on little sleep, but there's a lot of ways to answer this. Can you explain what you mean, and what the end goal is? Like what isn't happening enough in your list? Or what...

Also going to test this: In: phylath, world sculptor Out: borborygmos enraged Easier to hardcast. Not necessarily as swingy for Sneak Attack but can make you a team of Wildlife surviving plants...or make one plant huge for Berserk or Heartpiercer Manticore. At 6 cmc it can be fetched via...

After looking at it more, the 5c emphasis would have a larger impact on cube real estate than I'm willing to commit to right now. I'm going to shelve the idea for now, but it is something I'm still interested in. I thought I could just toss in a handful of cards like Prismatic Ending...

It’s a great card, I just run a very low density of 1 drops in my cube.

fomo is real

Same! :D :( I consider Memphis my hometown, so that's my team. They just got knocked out of the first round as well. I caught a little of that LAL/PHX game and watching AD trying to play was tough. Anyways, good to know another fan is here..... back to our regularly scheduled the magical...

Mom and Pop's Thopter Shop is soo good. :D I hope your Dimir Grindfather deck had some theft components as homage to the famous Memphis Grizzly Tony "The Grindfather" Allen who was known for his lockdown defense and otherworldly ability to get steals.

I ran it for several months, and it was pretty decent...but pretty reliant on other cards to combo with like Zuran Orb or Greater Gargadon or World Shaper....not even close to as effortless as balance. That felt like a good thing tbh. A cheap activation would've been so oppressive due to the...

Balance has been so close to making many final drafts of my cube over the years.

One of my low-key favorite things about cube is naming the weird archetypes that are unique to your cube. My new favorite is: The Animal Trade: Which is a Simic deck based around these enchantments Trade Routes Drake Haven Ayula's Influence Anyone else enjoy coming up with archetypes names...

There's a lot of interesting archetypes here, but like @blacksmithy mentioned earlier you'll probably need to spend some time exploiting the intersections between them to avoid the on-rails experience. Like if affinity and dredge are going to be a thing in your cube, perhaps scavenge could a...

100%. I obviously love the new toys, and having design holes filled in my cube, but it's a lot. I don't feel like I get any time to settle into a list before a new host of amazing cards drop, and then I have to spend two+ weeks shuffling things around to see what and how things fit. It's a lot...
