No reason to include narrow cards, Eidolon is good in Standard because it goes well with good cards and the same will be true in your Cube

Soul of Theros is OK, WW is hard and I'd probably rather have Soul of Innistrad. What we found is that the other late-game plans (Pharika, Doomwake) trump Soul of Theros, so it'd be useful mainly as a mirror must-kill + failsafe against balls-out aggro. Given the narrowness of some board cards...

yes

Yeah, by promoting the functional manabase we really revolutionized how people view the whole "Cruel vs. Bolas" debate for the Grixis colors in the Cube format of Magic: the Gathering. Someone go make a Wikipedia article for me and make that a subsection please

you can combo it with this afiya grove to make THIS abzan ascendancy

Nicky B is near the top for playability for 3-colored spells I like Ugin and will be trying him and anticipate he'll stick around forever

Daretti is really, really bad Dack Fayden is a similar option where everyone else who said "it is dumb" is correct. Daretti can't even five-finger an artifact.

AEtherling indeed has activated abilities I'm kind of wondering what to do with the whole big blue creature slot beyond that. Tidespout Tyrant isn't all that realistic to hardcast, there aren't really sevens, and so on

If you think about it, Sakura-Tribe Elder is basically a sorcery, which is a non-creature spell, I guess See the Unwritten is also technically not a creature! Green can have a nice themeless enchantment theme with Sylvan Library, Survival of the Fittest, and Eidolon of Blossoms

here in america we now say "Black" or "African-American" even how great is it that AIDS kills all the color permanents? all is dust

Big Elspeth is very good, I don't mind running it but you might find some other card you prefer for that slot Nissa is fine, I'd run her over the kinda OP Primal Hunter The last three are not great, I include Kiora to have a Simic card but it's not very interesting, you just kinda tick up to...

Memory Jar is delightful but you really need to be doing something with the 7 cards. I don't think it fits much of anywhere

comeuppance dualcaster mage feldon of the third path flesh carver hallowed spiritkeeper malicious affliction myriad landscape spoils of blood titania, protector of argoth unstable obelisk notes: haven't actually played with landscape, obelisk, or comeuppance yet -- obelisk and landscape...

we were discussing this the other day loyal retainers

wargear and bonesplitter are non negotiable classics collar probably deserves a spot based on possible sideboarding and/or combos with sharpshooter and other cards like that bonehoard is OK mortarpod and adventuring gear are a little too bad for most environments i think

Welp guess I flattened the power level enough. One of our heroes picked Worldknit and followed it up with Canal Dredger so he got to play a sweet 90-card deck with a nice 1/5 defender for 1, then smashed us with Spiteful Returned and all the other dumb cards that I put in and go 15th and get...

resolved: auras are lame. now back before bestow gave us a sad excuse for an enchantment block the aura problem was elegantly solved by EQUIPMENT. how do we feel about equipment in cube? which equipment do we like?

It is very bad, but likely better than, I dunno, 6x Scars of Mirrodin FWIW Team Sealed addresses a lot of complaints we have with Sealed, but not all of them

I enjoy Tutors in Cube and love how most of them don't fit into most decks. No way Gravecrawler beats wants Vampiric or even Demonic Tutor. However, their applications are broad enough that they are not poisony -- you can Mystical Tutor for your Reanimation spell, sure, but also for Terminus or...
