    The Penny Pincher Cube (360)

    Yeah i slotted it in, and it feels pretty nuts in the draft, in the sense that its just pure power; might be better to go back to chief. /sigh was really looking forward to a decent sac outlet. I also dropped act of treason for enthralling victor: want to try a more reasonable version of...

    General Unpopular Fun/Effective Cards in Your Cube

    Dom those are some really great suggestions. I don't remember Apprentice Necromancer at all, but the card looks like a blast. Sigil of distinction seems about perfect: mana sink, charge counters, and you can even grab it with trinket mage. Unearth, of course, is an amazing card.

    The Penny Pincher Cube (360)

    I'm pretty sure it is. Having two artifact flyers turns on metal craft for rusted relic, and almost turns it on for the other af cards. It also provides two bodies to sacrifice to pia and kiran. I think I am going to cut threaten and try thopter engineer: I just like that card.

    The Penny Pincher Cube (360)

    Other question was origins changes. Normally I'm super curmudgeonly with adding new cards, and this was no exception. However, I was prompted to actually look over the visual spoiler, and saw lots of cool cards. I am only adding like 3, but am buying a ton of sweet looking commons and uncommons...

    Innistrad Themed Cube: 360 Unpowered

    I added in outpost siege, which I think is now enough red control support. No moment's peace, but there is gnaw to the bone. Also added evacuation because I love persecute. I also feel like deathmist would be a good addition, but maybe just one. So lets talk about enchantment/artifact removal...

    Do you have a sample deck list? I think you've probably provided enough of an argument, but it would be cool to see.

    I'll repeat what I said before, but spikeshot should be thought of as a lower power red control card, or at least a card for non-condensed formats. Most riptide environments are going to be too condensed for him to have the time to do anything, and they don't really support red control or...

    Innistrad Themed Cube: 360 Unpowered

    No, no, you don't stop goblin bushwhacker that easily. You just have to draw it before the turn where you rally... (and have like 6 mana but whatever, thats what elves are for). Zealot is the poster child for the glaring hole in the card record that bushwhacker fills by his lonely self...

    Innistrad Themed Cube: 360 Unpowered

    I think you've persuaded me about the second archangel. Not really sure what I want to run in its place though. I also just remembered that Ezuri only buffs elfs /sigh. Really was excited to have that card: 3cc and a mana sink. I think I am going to try to fit moment's peace back in, since...

    Innistrad Themed Cube: 360 Unpowered

    I really like seeing those controlling R/G decks. I took prime time out for titania, which is probably a huge upgrade for a deck like this, and the moment's peace, which i'm starting to doubt. How do you feel about that card in this deck? Honestly, I forgot rally dosen't grant haste...

    Innistrad Themed Cube: 360 Unpowered

    Vengevine sounds pretty sweet; I had forgotten about it. I was thinking of deathmist as being more of a cheap incidental value card, but sometimes people will get confused by those sorts of inclusions and start looking for decks that aren't there.

    Innistrad Themed Cube: 360 Unpowered

    The morph on grim is pretty much just to get back raptor: thats really the only reward to be morphing things. Ending up going with 1 set of shocks, 1 set of fetches, 1 set of bounce, and 1 set of scry lands, which feels about right. That gets backed up by the 5 zendikar man lands, x1 lotus...
