Fulminator Mage is sweet, I've been cubing with it as long as I've had a copy and it's been awesome every time. You're taking up a turn's worth of resources to cast it most times so it's pretty fair, only busted if you come up with some sorts of shenanigans to break that resource parity (i.e...

Den Protector is amazing, get on that immediately. Semi-evasive body and instant speed Regrowth is great. Going Morph + Regrowth in one turn isn't embarrassing at all either since you get a decent body and usually get back a difference maker.

It's been pretty successful. I haven't had a chance to draft the BW archetype, but one of my friends has done it a couple of times. It's been pretty strong for him. It buys a lot of time as a cushion to bridge them into the late game. It's pretty grindy just looking to stall and buy time before...

I've cut out the Enchantment subtheme from my cube; the payoff just wasn't there to entice drafters into going into that archetype often enough. I feel like it's two creatures away from being a real viable archetype, but it's just not working for me right now. I don't want to go double Eidolon...

Viridian Emissary is sweet if you have a way of saccing him if you can't bait an opponent attack. The ability to just sac STE whenever is great because sometimes you need a speedbump against aggro, other times you just wanna ramp on T2. Having options is great. VE is kinda miserable if you...

I would not underrate Scourge of Nel Toth as a viable option/payoff card. It's a sweet card that's a fair reanimation target, can create cool tech-y play with the right set-up, and it's just a fair card in general. It's the type of late-game finisher that feels non-oppressive while still being...

To touch up on the cycles mentioned in this thread, for the DTK Commands they're all really good and I would not underestimate Dromoka's Command. I've used just about every mode over the course of a game and I actually think it is the second best behind Kolaghan's Command. I don't own a copy of...

They have infiltrated our home base. Abort operations immediately!

Just how hard is it to get to 30 life? I can't remember the last time I did that unless I curved out with lifegain dudes or set up a Kitchen Finks loop.

Cubetutor has a sideboard option now where you can store other stuff you're working with/planning to work with. You'd have some random iteration out, but the rest would be in the sideboard which we could look at whenever.

3 Pods at 420 has been the sweet spot for me. You only ever need two to ever make the archetype work out from my experience.

Eidolon is just far too slow for many of our cubes. I've tried to make it work, I wanted it to work really badly, but a cantripping 4 drop is not where I want to be. It's an AMAZING card in my Karametra Enchantress EDH, the first card I'd look for with a tutor, but that only works because I can...

Prophetic Flamespeaker High hopes, but one power is just so shitty. I wish he were a 2/2 or something. You know, actually playable. I've seen him come through exactly once, and that was with Wolfir Silverheart just buffing the hell out of him. It could have been any other creature in his...

For P1P1 scenarios, it honestly comes down to familiarity with Cube for me. If I don't know what to expect, I'm just going to pick the strongest card I see that leaves me most flexible. Or just a stupid bomb if I see it. I'll dive deeper with picks if I'm familiar with the cube/format and know...

These are some of my favorites: Crusade Day of Destiny Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite Wandering Ones Feldon of the Third Path Darksteel Plate Doran, the Siege Tower

Myth Realized is really sweet, but it only fits into certain decks and even then only if it's your T1-T3 play. Otherwise, it's not very likely to play a role in your match as the cost for putting a lore counter on there is too steep to do so multiple times in one turn. I would definitely stick...

Hymn is completely fine in my cube. I don't think any of my drafters have ever really felt that terrible after a hymn. I mean yeah, it could strip you of your next two land drops and then you're screwed, but that's just bad luck. There was one time that where someone pulled of...

I had this BW list a while back, it's typical of what I'd want to see from that archetype. The big problem with white weenie is that you have such a small window to push in damage before you're outclassed, but increasing your critical mass of early drops with double Bloodsoaked really really...

As far as the slow fetches go, personally I prefer to keep all my dual color fixing (fetches, shocks, etc.) in the main draft portion of the Cube. I guess it's worth a try sometime in ULD if you can scrounge up copies. The only thing turning me off would be that they aren't all in modern frame...
