I was wondering if you had feedback regarding the Prototype cards that you play. Steel Seraph Phyrexian Fleshgorger I am looking for ways to trigger Simulacrum Synthesizer and these two seem pretty good! They would let me shave an artifact fatty and still keep my density and give me some cool...

That's a good point I hadn't considered. That would tie artifact sacrifice with the Green land recursion which is pretty novel. I could see one or two, but not that much more because of the space issues you mentioned. I had the option of going down that route during the draft, but decided to...

I like showcasing what I consider cool decks and I just go a sweet one using Second Sunrise as a combo piece. Ones 1 Hangarback Walker 1 Mishra's Bauble 1 Zuran Orb 1 The Underworld Cookbook 1 Wizard's Rockets 1 Experimental Synthesizer 1 Greater Gargadon 1 Goblin Welder 1 Novice Inspector...

I find the third option kind of depressing considering the title of your thread… Your list inspired me to brew with higher mana value cards (think Myr Enforcer + Pod) and while I think it’s a cool space it’s less epic than the Titans. I have a big preference to your first option because of the...

Looks like it's your turn to inspire, that is a great package to tie the room together. Tameshi, Reality Architect lotus Bloom Second Sunrise Contrary to Thopter/Sword, the individual pieces go into more shells. Sunrise is a great aristocrat card, kind of like Afterlife Insurance doubling...

Right now I am leaning on the unoriginal Chromatic Star There are so many aspects of the card to exploit in addition to being mana fixing.

If I see these two in a pack and no other information about the cube, I would take the Demonic Tutor. It can go in both fair and unfair decks alike since it isn't card disadvantage. Yes it's too easy IMO, no it's not too expensive. I'm conflicted in regards to tutors because the generic ones...

Maybe it’s time for Jason’s Chancellor of the Dross meme to finally shine?

Love that Spirit Guide choice because it would definitely catch me off guard! Plus it’s essentially colorless so maybe more open ended?

Some of my favourites from category 2: Paradox Engine Agatha’s soul cauldron Insidious roots Jeskai Ascendancy Underworld breach Displacer kitten

Have you considered switching to a different cheat package that would allow you to wirk with different targets? Oath could still fit, but Tinker and Welder would be less effective. Sneak Attack Natural Order Flash With these ones, you can fit some fatties more in line with your goals...

Keep it coming! I like where your head is at and sometimes the cards themselves don't get there, but the idea behind it gets me thinking. Like here I don't really want Mindslaver in the cube, but I had forgotten about Academy Ruins. I love utility lands and this one can get back some interesting...

Pickled Rhino? Sauted Rhino? Braised Rhino? Rhino tartare? So many option! Looking forward to see where you end up.

I think Nexus of Fate is my only one.

{W}{U} Kind of dreading this guild as I know it to be functional, but light on fancy synergy. I am also unhappy with most UW cards, meaning I don't have clear signposts or unique build arounds. Control: Counters, planeswalkers, wraths and card draw. More of a macro archetype, but hey, it's a...

Before I go off the deep end, what does a cube with 30 Gitaxian Probes and no Blue color sound like??? I would use Foretell and Morph to hide some information and use the Probes for spells matter stuff. Maybe a few incidental sources of Blue mana.

Ahhhh! I immediately forgot about Crow Storm again, will have to steal this idea from you. If I may, I’d suggest looking into Chatterstorm too. It’s been uniquely good in creature combo decks with stuff like Skullclamp, Earthcraft, Yawgmoth and Cradle. I also run Warren Soultrader and Insidious...

Definitely one of the many cards that I didn’t know existed. It is cool, but yeah, maybe a little slow. The main difference with the Synthesizer is that this one doesn’t affect the board, making it tough to justify. Same here. Saw it, thought “neat!”, but not enough support and moved on. Now I...

Well the goal of the exercise was to try your approach, so I’ll keep that in mind. I went too specific with certain archetypes. Simic Storm is usually accompanied by a Black or Red splash, so yeah, might be generous separating it. Simulacrum Synthesizer Could this be the control + artifact...

Decided to try the inscho challenge of listing 4 archetypes for each of the 10 guilds. I'll be listing 5 cards for each archetype hopefully showcasing what it is about. {U}{G} Earthcraft: Generate mana with artifacts or creatures and win with excess mana. Earthcraft Tireless Tracker Urza...
