I wouldn't run the Jund one, but I've seen Cruel Ultimatum first picked quite a few times. Decent idea to get a color combination to be more prevalent. Just give em a big gun.

I'd hate to see how bad a common one is.

I prefer a big knight over modern ETB spam. Old school cards were much more based on having a lot of stats as value rather than ETB +1s. That's something I kind of want to get back to, but modern designs make it difficult. That said, a 3/2 for 3 that ramps or gets back a threat in a fetchland...

I'm definitely enthused about the tribal cards for my Onslaught cube and I might have to add a lot of Foretell to go along with Morph for the full Yu-Gi-Oh experience. I'll need to take a closer look later.

The problem is they're expecting you to have seen the reminder text on the commons, which is fair enough, but can really hurt anyone who wants to run one of the rares and none of the others, like Gargadon. It's a much smaller issue if you decide that you love the Boast mechanic and you're...

I'm personally in love with mantis rider lightning angel They're both such simple, effective beaters and the fourth toughness on the Angel is the second* most relevant toughness you can get. I always have a thing for Jeskai cards, too. They also provide a lot of efficiency for the number of...

Anything {W/U}, {R/G}, {G/W}, {U/R}, {R/W}, and {G/U}.

Out of date list of mill I considered worth running. I seem to recall a few more recent printings piqued my interest in mill as a deck. The big downside is that you fuel any opposing graveyard decks.

Rag? Is that you? You don't look quite right... More of the kind of tribal design I praise. 5 mana for 6 damage is just fine in a draft and a 2 mana kill spell isn't particularly pushed.

Depends a bit on how easily you can expect to bin threats and how powerful the threats are at 4-5 mana. If I have 10 Entombs and Big Gris in my deck, I'm going to want to be sure I can get him back on turn 5 every time. If I have 3 "2U draw 3, discard 2" and a couple reasonable 7 drops to...

Flametribe Kavu? I like it, too.

Giant Ox 1W Creature - Ox You may use Giant Ox's toughness to crew rather than its power. Incredibly cute design. Good blocker and crewer if you're in some sort of low powered vehicle format, which gets increasingly likely as more vehicles are printed.

'Rune of Aviation' Enchant permanent When Rune of Aviation enters the battlefield, draw a card. As long as enchanted permanent is a creature, it has flying. As long as enchanted permanent is an Equipment, it has "Equipped creature has flying." Looks like Runes are Creature+Equipment buffers...

clever impersonator We've had this for a while, which is a clone I rather enjoy. The option to pick anything is cool and it's text is very to-the-point, which a lot of Clones lose when going beyond their namesake. Excited to see more low power Changelings today for my Onslaught idea...

I had the idea that got me out of powermax in mind as an article structure https://strategy.channelfireball.com/all-strategy/mtg/channelmagic-articles/cube-design-eldrazi-domain/ Here's the Shrines, why they caught my eye this set, let's build on them How Shrines affect power level Double...

Snow Sorcery Choose target creature you control and target creature you don’t control. The creature you control gets +1/+0 and gains indestructible until end of turn if you control three or more snow permanents. Then those creatures fight each other. (Each deals damage equal to its power to the...

Then I think you're severely discrediting the work required to make a cube that isn't filled with generic, overused themes and random good stuff.

Inspired by the new set, not a set cube. Like a Theros-inspired cube would likely end up focusing on the gods/devotion and/or enchantments. The M21-inspired cube might make an environment to accommodate the Shrines. Ikoria-inspired might use the Eldrazi as the true behemoths or attempt to...

No one was interested in my Yu-Gi-Oh history series, and that's ok. Would anyone want an article/post detailing the process of making a cube inspired by the newest set every set? I liked these cards, here's why, here's the scryfall searches I did and why, here's a list. Would go through the...

Good art :eek: 5C enabler :eek: PROGENITUS MANA COST?! :eek: Needs a bunch of Gods :( This was almost so cool to draft. Maybe it still is, but it's a total low powered card that grab a bunch of high powered Gods. I may look into it, as I always love 5c green as a deck with a couple smaller...
