Haven

Right now I don't think I can make enough cards to support it well enough in my blue section, but a man can dream and the day might come!

I don't think they are good enough, even for my cube, even if they weren't that conditional :p This on the other hand seems a little too brutal. Hmmm. There definitely options, but I'm not convinced by any of them sadly. This seems actually to be the best fit for my certain meta. I'm...

Okay, it'sa me again. I want a black card, that's an payoff for an artifact-focused deck, midrange. Any ideas?

I prefer Pestermite for it's tempo applications and it's 2nd point of power as surprise trade. @Storm cards: I'd says both or none. You could also look for Surge cards, some are quite good. For the record, I went with Nantuko Shade as my mono black card, thanks forum crew :p

Drake Haven Has anyone tested this? How much support does it actually need?

Maybe it's just my black section, but I think people are undervalueing Oath. Black decks tend to have bigger yards than öfter colors and way to keep the number high, so the drawback is not that big of a deal. But it's nice to get the effect online early with 2, 3 or sometimes even only one...

The three I had the most fun with: Honored Hydra Rise from the Tides Captain Lannery Storm And since RftT has been mentioned before, my number 4: Enigma Drake

In my experience Oath is much easier to turn on. And the potential drawback of the opponent getting to raise a dead, happed exactly once in like 2 years.

I agree So many sick combos in A25

Wow, I didn't even consider the possibilities of saccing the overlord himself and bring him back again and again with cards like Oath of Ghouls, that's pretty nice. I feared, that he might be too awful on an empty board, but maybe this is not all that relevant on a 7-drop? Right now I am torn...

I want another pay off card for the mono black deck. How would you rank those and why?: Crypt Ghast Lashwrithe Abhorrent Overlord Bad Moon The mono black decks in my cube consist of hand disruption, (mass)removal and value through creature resurrection, often more midrange than control.

Yeah, almost like when you draw a card and need a (non)land, right?

What are peoples experiences with Delver of Secrets in a lower powered environment? I think it could be pretty sick but beatable when it flips turn 2, while it could still be could enough when it flips later. Opinions?

Since MaRo said recently, that blue and black have sooo little overlap, I think it would be super interesting, if we design a dimir hybrid card :)

Absolutely

Yeah, I probably should give him a test run at least. Well, the idea was to create a theme, that is worth it even when your deck has only 3 or 4 real payoff cards. I figured a slow, heavy midrange deck would fit best and has also some overlap with wildfire.dec and other themes. It's also a...

I'm considering adding this guy here too, but maybe the effect is a little too much stats ... Jor Kadeen, the Prevailer

Yes, this is the expensive, broken version for max power cubes. I have to admit, I almost forgot about the card for a moment, but it reminds me, how I have unintentionally often fair versions of max power cube cards or effects: Haunted Crossroads is my Volrath's Stronghold Vernal Bloom is my...

I never see this card get any reputation from the cube community: Haunted Crossroads Yeah, I am a sucker for graveyard strategies, but this card has been in our cube for 5 or 6 years, and it has proven to be such a value engine. It's no Recurring Nightmare, but for a slightly lower powered...
