The stats bump is actually the main reason I want to bring it in. I'm lacking in aggressive bodies in that slot...everything is very midrange. It's more to do with not wanting to cut any of my other 3s to make room for it: Eternal Witness Loaming Shaman Ramunap Excavator Tireless Tracker...

I really like Deathgorge Scavenger, but I'm not sure if I can squeeze it in next to my Loaming Shaman in the 3 slot. I see Deathgorge as a fair alternative to Scavenging Ooze which is mows downs graveyards a little too efficiently for my tastes.

Rule #7: Always Duress their Necropotence

I've been thinking about freebooter vs mesmeric fiend. Grabbing a creature is a pretty big plus for fiend. It's a common scenario to grab a creature, killing tempo for your opponent, and forcing them to waste premium removal on it to maintain any pressure. I like the flexibility, and also...

My current favorites are Asylum Visitor Scrapheap Scrounger Apprentice Necromancer Mesmeric Fiend Mesmeric Fiend has been a dark horse for me, and fits perfectly in the curve of what a lot of my black decks want to be doing. Visitor and Scrounger are my flavorful alternatives to Dark...

In all the time I've hunted for good Academy Rector & Show and Tell targets, I've always dismissed Form of the Dragon as not being worth the slot. I think that's largely due to feeling like it turns a blind-eye to any real strategy in your deck. It warps play the second it lands by setting up an...

I'm not a big fan of tribal synergies, but some other fun cards with Symbiote: Nissa, Vastwood Seer Caller of the Claw Priest of Titania

I agree on your general assessment of tutors importance. I run Vampiric Tutor over Demonic in my cubes. There's some fun incidental synergies with the top of library and instant speed. I like and run all of the mirage tutors except worldly. Terminus Oath of druids Gamekeeper Mystical teachings...

Oh food chain is an interesting card with scourge and griffin. I have an irrational appreciation for eternal scourge and I'm always looking for more ways to take advantage of it in my cube.

Plunge is terrrrrrible. but Reins of Power

There needs to be a red Kor Skyfisher and Grinning Ignus ain't it. I don't think three spells in one turn is all that difficult to muster with the right selection of cube slots. Things like Staggershock, Frantic Search, Faithless Looting, Bloodbraid Elf, Fireblast, Snuff Out, Gitaxian Probe...

Don't delete. I'm a fan of TOL matters spell decks and Mizzix's Mastery in general. :cool: Could be some crossover with Miracles. I've been happy with: Terminus Temporal Mastery Other misc support: Jace, Vryn's Prodigy Brainstorm Mystical Tutor Scroll Rack Bloodwater Entity EDIT: Just...

Rowdy Crew's requirements for excellence is a little too situational to be fun in even low powered cubes in my opinion. I'd take a card like Bedlam Reveler over it any day. I know the applications are slightly different, but at least there's some clear design direction given by Reveler. Crew is...

I've toyed around with the Enchantment Reanimator deck, but could never quite integrate into my cube, switching it to Azorius Artifact Control instead. I still have a small Academy Rector package which is a lot of fun. Lay Claim That Oath deck is rad. I've enjoyed Gamekeeper, Shelldock...

Doing this has been a real game-changer for me. It's a really simple exercise, but I managed to have a cube for several years before I consciously started doing it.

Terastodon only hits noncreatures :oops:

I've admittedly not given Lake of the Dead much consideration, but it sure sounds like a lot more fun than Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth. Especially with land recursion and Titania, Protector of Argoth . I've been trying to make a slot for Mesmeric Fiend, I used to get so much mileage out of it...
