Not every guild is interested in bouncelands, and Barrin is blue. I think blue-based control and ramp like it, and of course landfall stategies. I run the UB, RG, and GU ones in my cube. WB and RW get a painland instead. Don't be afraid to break up your land cycles to best serve the color pairs...

Yep, love Barrin, excellent design! Also, six extra shrines! And the uncommon cycle has haikus for flavor text! <3 https://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/making-magic/wait-theres-core-2020-06-15 Seriously, shoe-in for the t10 best flavor text ever! Also also, this is a cool design...

Yeah, red is pretty strong in this cube! I've seen reports that the difference in win rate between being on the play and being on the draw in this cube is (allegedly) over 10%!

Welcome back ;) I've got some suggestions from the last four years for the other cards you're looking to replace :) Dark-Dweller Oracle Light Up the Stage Syr Carah, the Bold Mire Triton Stitcher's Supplier Syr Konrad, the Grim Kinnan, Bonder Prodigy Nissa, Steward of Elements Risen Reef...

That looks like a sweet deck Peter! Please tell me it did better than 2-4 :) I've only done the two drafts I put up here, and both times I did the same thing: pick fixing over almost anything, pick wraths and planeswalkers, pick bombs and removal.

I think this card is super expensive, but it has significant blowout potential! It's hard to evaluate, because while doing everything is powerful, it comes at too a steep price for a regular counterspell, cantrip, or bounce spell. That said, Cryptic Command proved to be very powerful at 4 mana...

Well, when life gives you strawberries, eat 'em, right? I went 7-2 again, losing one game to The Immortal Sun, and another to Thief of Sanity. The mana was perfect. Sadly I didn't get to combine Mirari's Wake with the Finale of Glory, but I did get to cast March of the Multitudes for X = 16...

Won with a 7-2 record, stomping two RW aggro decks on the way, including one on a mulligan to 5, and one in the finals where I had two Liliana, Dreadhorde Generals at 9 loyalty (courtesy of Spark Double), five zombies, and a Zetalpa, Primal Dawn in play vs my opponent's lone Heliod, Sun-Crowned...

I think the difference between pure UB control and my draft is the three Wraths I play.

Alright, let's give this a try then!

Hahahahaha, I hadn't even noticed that :') Though, I guess doubling up on Reckoner isn't the worst idea if you want to make this archetype happen :D

But... Boros Reckoner is right there at the end in your first post XRS. I'm confused :confused:

That Abzan deck seems tailor made to crush aggro. A nice suite of early removal into life gain and big butts, with even a sweeper thrown in for good measure, and two planeswalkers to lock up the match. It's going to be pretty hard for the aggro deck to capitalize on tempo if the opponent is...

I was pretty happy with this one! Temur has elementals and ramp as themes, and this fits perfectly there. Just a bucket of damage!

Xantcha, Sleeper Agent She's a Phyrexian sleeper agent, created to resemble a human female. https://mtg.gamepedia.com/Xantcha

I didn't even catch that. That's gross and amazing detail at the same time :eek:

Decidedly female is the best of these :)

In Modern: t1 suspend Rift Bolt, t2 cast Rift Bolt, cast Lava Spike, cast Chandra's Incinerator, go!
