    Most of the "return a land" cards are pretty bad. Meloku is only good because he- -Converts land drops into board presence. -Makes Evasive Tokens. -Can make multiple creatures in a turn. -Comes down during a point in the game where bouncing a land isn't a super meaningful tempo loss. -Has an ok...

    Sure! Bonesplitter and Heirloom Blade are great aggro equipments. They're the sort of cards every aggro deck wants to be playing, sometimes even over a creature or burn spell if their draft went well enough. As for creatures, you've already got most of the best options, but there are a...

    Your list looks a lot more streamlined now- I appreciate that you've taken my suggestions into account :). Mystic Sanctuary and Witch's Cottage are both very powerful magic cards, and I think adding them is correct in a 20-fetch cube at this power level. Snare Thopter feels like a weird...

    Well, I'm in the United States at least. Not Newark specifically though :(.

    Big no for Sheoldred, Whispering One. She ruins games if not immediately addressed. Rune-Scarred Demon is fine. Deathbringer Regent is nice as a board wipe on a stick for control decks. Same for Havoc Demon, but it has to die for it's wipe trigger. It also doesn't kill their big things...

    You're welcome :). You have a really cool cube! I'd definitely include Tormented Soul. The only reason I recommended outcast instead of soul is because it has the relevant creature types which is quite good in the decks that want it. The Tormented Soul effect is something every cube with...

    Absolutely. Cube isn't really a raw-power format. Even though high-power cards are usually better than low power cards, a medium or low power dude that fills a spot in the curve or is synergistic with a certain type of deck is going to perform better than some random bomb.

    I just updated the Cube Cobra list to have all of the cards tagged by the update in which they were added. Cards that were removed and then added again show each update they were added. Here's the link so you can check it out!

    I like Seaordain more than Scour All Possibilities. Seaordain is an instant speed play, and being able to scry at instant speed is good as well. You usually have to take your entire turn off to flashback Scour All Possibilities because it's a sorcery. I don't think the ability to draw an extra...

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    The only reason Oketra's Monument is good for cube is because it makes creatures whenever you cast a creature spell and helps you overwhelm the opponent with a wide board state. A 1/1 Creature is worth a lot more than draining the opponent for 1 since it can theoretically deal a lot more damage...

    Part 1: The Good So this cube does a lot of different things very well. I think you've done a very good job of layering together cards which can go into multiple decks without necessarily needing to be played as a "23rd card." Stuff like Anax, Hardened in the Forge can work in both your bread...

    I think you have a lot of really interesting ideas at play here! There seems to be a lot of overlap between your archetypes, and there is some masterful design craftsmanship at play here. I'd like to give you a full critique, but I do have a number of design criticisms which probably are not...

    I'd say that the three best are: Lovestruck Beast The First Iroan Games Boon Satyr Lovestruck Beast comes down early and hits hard, provided that you have a 1/1 creature. It's great off the back of a Llanowar Elves type creature especially. Luckily, Lovestruck Beast doesn't have any built-in...
