Sadly, the Mirror Entity + Body Double standard-legal infinite has really gotten obsoleted on power level by the passage of time, so it's not even an excuse to run the fun nostalgia stuff.

I don't think this is a point in its favor. As someone with a relatively similar power level of cube, this reads to me like you've got other things that cause games to drag on and Hexdrinker just happens to bypass them. It's putting players out of their misery, but you could do the same thing by...

Grapple with the Past Surprised the giant enablers post didn't mention my literal favorite (it's an instant! there's no reason for it to be an instant unless you want it to be just straight up better than every other effect like this!) also Skyclave Shade for payoffs edit: and while it's not...

These are all across the power band, but if you missed the entire block I figure we should be sure you've seen all the stuff. Couple of these are actually in my cube, but most of them are not because I run very few multicolor: Hydroid Krasis Domri, Anarch of Bolas Angrath's Rampage Basilica...

I am not even going to pretend to know what people will do with this card (blue heroic isn't really a thing that I've seen anyone do) but wow, does it ever have a tempting ability...

"Bloodsky Berserker" 1B Creature - Human Berserker Whenever you cast your second spell each turn, put two +1/+1 counters on ~. It gains menace until end of turn. 1/1 I like this, even if you really want to be casting two spells on turn three to make it large right away. The "two spells each...

Blue has Mantle of Tides, which while underpowered would work fairly well if you're already heavy on cantrips and have enough reasons to care about equipment! It's not anything spectacular but it sure would show people where they can go (and if it wheels, so much the better for the one drafter...

Is there something like this but for full art? Because my only complaint about the Bob Ross lair was that I couldn't get them full art, otherwise I'd have swapped out my coveted OG Zendikar Japanese foil Veronique Meignaud lovefest.

I'm disappointed that non-showcase Kaya has the rad mohawk-esque hair and showcase Kaya doesn't. This is like, the smallest possible complaint, especially given that I am almost certainly not cubing her. But this: is way cooler hair.

Dwarves being vehicle-based means that they work perfectly with Depala, Pilot Exemplar for the one person who's got that exact power level of cube.

Yeah, it's a good point - you only have to hit once for the monarch but you actually have to kill Jace to stop the ten-a-turn. That said, it's a lot of power allocated in places that are probably fun for casual but 100% not what I'm here for for cube. Which is a shame, because I would like to at...

I'm going to be honest, I think this card is Jace, Memory Adept level of unfun. It either does nothing (well, okay, cycles and then you trade off the monarch forever) or you become the monarch and win in three turns flat.

Barry didn't even get Barry's Land into print until last year, how good a designer can he be?

Only thing that hasn't been mentioned yet for me is Swarm Shambler: It's a weird hybrid of Chronomaton and Thorn Lieutenant but the ability also triggering off other creatures with counters getting targeted makes me think it'll just barely be good enough with all the synergies. (plus...

Likely won't ever be cheaper in Cube (unless you let your drafters go really deep), but the land versatility is there...

Been playing some standard. Anyone trying Primal Might? The combination of Prey Upon and bad Fireball that lets you fight is at least tempting to me.

From a cube-card standpoint, I'm mad about Bradley because History of Benalia has no other art. Every Nielsen card I'm running (Eternal Witness, Natural Order, and the promo Chandra, Torch of Defiance) has alternatives that I can buy once this pandemic's over (I'm not running Fact or Fiction...

Jeez, I've never seen Glademuse before in my life. That's a spicy one even if it's symmetric.

I've been using mythicspoiler, I didn't know goldfish existed and was that fast! (...is this a preprint from Zendikar Rising? That would be a good gimmick.)

I have been checking things before I assume they're new, because I kept thinking reprints of random crap like Hungry Flames were new... but then I stopped. And then the first card after I stopped was a reprint. Well done, self.
