Ok, I'm in the process of actually putting together the cube, and still coming across a few holes. Most of these are pretty much the filler you get late in spoiler season, but I'ld still like to here any opinions you guys mught have :) PS. Geyser of Wisdom idea shamelesly stolen from Lucre! I...

That's not entirely fair to the team at WotC. While the original game design is Garfield's (and props to him for designing this awesome game), the game is undoubtedly at a better place right now, in most areas, than 20 years ago. MaRo had a great article recently where he pretended to go back in...

Arbiter of the Ideal Djinn of Wishes Callous Deceiver Whirlpool Whelm Dig Through Time Treasure Cruise Interpret the Signs! Delve spells interact well with both sphinxes (draw, discard) and clash (expensive casting cost on the card). I would definitely include some. Consecrated Sphinx is...

Holefiller 4 life!

To be fair, duals and other "you pretty much need four of me"-rares have become cheaper, and that was one of the main goals of introducing mythic rares, if I remember correctly. The idea being that a player with a tighter budget should still be able to compete, and a good mana base is essential...

Also because you can fill the exact holes you want to fill.

Working on my cube with the highest amount of custom yet made me realize how fucking great the next ten years of Magic could be, even if they just decided to rehash old mechanics. This game is frigging deep.

Feedback 101: end on a positive note ;) I love Hytonia. Add in some other Gorgons/Changelings though to leverage the tribal destruction ability :)

That card is pretty awful when you actually try it, for a couple of reasons: It's a multicolor card Often, it doesn't fix your mana, it only ramps (because you can't cast it if your mana isn't fixed already) 0/3 isn't a very relevant power/toughness combination You can't activate it the turn you...

This looks like an awesome cube for some Wildfire Control archetype. ... Where is the control anyway. No wraths? No sweepers? Wouldn't this cube be more fun with some more diversity in supported archetypes? Edit: You could even support combo with various options if you want to...

Mirari's Wake and that six mana enchantment that grants +3/+3 to all of your creatures.

You do realize you're going to develop a midrange cube with all the ramp you'll surely be including, right? :)

Other mana sinks are X spells, (multi)kicker, entwine, flashback, activated abilities (which level up, in a sense, is, of course)

that sounds like a fine change. {2}, {T}: You gain 5 life. Shuffle Elixir of Immortality and target player's graveyard into their owner's library. I think that works? It's a bit weird, but you can't shuffle cards into an opponent's library. That's the reason for the "its owner's library" in...

I believe you're looking for the word muggle :)

True. Then again, I love me some Tanglewire , Braids, Cabal Minion and Smokestack.

Trostani's Summoner is good in reanimator and blink strategies. Courser's Accord is not good in much of anything, assuming you run no Godsires and stuff (i.e. spells that produce tokens that are more relevant than a 3/3). On its own it provides a pretty bad rate for a multicolor spell (6 power...

Yeah, that was what I thought. Problem with the first Modern Masters was that there weren't even that many cards I wanted for my cube. Most of the real spikey cards are either poisonous or OP in an unpowered cube like mine. Swords? No thanks. Affinity? Uh... No. Storm? What? GTFO! The list goes...

That's reach if I ever saw it.

Compared to you guys, yes. Still a lot of money though to just play!
