    Onderzeeboot's Khans of Alara WUBGR Cube

    Why isn't Pick the Wrong Fight already a real card? Would have been loads of fun to play with in draft. Then again, could be a little broken in multiples haha. T1 Swiftspear, hit for 1 T2 PtWF, hit for 2 T3 Rebound + burn away a blocker, hit for 6 Pretty gross.

    I see where you're coming from. Falkenrath is definitely a sweet card, but it's far too abusable in my cube so I've sided with the dragon and haven't looked back. I never saw Falkenrath in any non-aggro deck. It was always just there to beat face with a stream of Gravecrawlers to feed it. On a...

    I love it. Got rid of Falkenrath Aristocrat because it was too fast of a clock and too easy to break with Gravecrawler and Bloodsoaked Champion. Dash is a great mechanic, getting a team boost to push through the last bits of damage is solid, and it's a reasonable top-end clock that isn't too...

    Card/Deck One drops with late-game relevance

    Myth Realized I think they made this card for you.

    Shamim's Cube

    Dromoka's Command is very interesting in that the modes are live against almost every kind of deck in Cube, aside from draw-go control. With the number of enchantments/enchantment creatures I run, that mode is relevant more often than you'd think. I've also been looking for good combat...

    Shamim's Cube

    So my last draft ended up devolving in 2HG swiss in later rounds, so we didn't even get through 3 rounds, but in the few one-on-one games that were played I've got a few quick hits to report on: Dromoka's Command is fantastic. I drafted a GW deck splashing black and it was great every time I...

    Mother of Runes Grim Lavamancer Lightning Berserker Warden of the First Tree Figure of Destiny Deathrite Shaman What you're looking for is some reach or cards that can scale with the amount of mana you have available to you. I suppose Lightning Berserker is primarily an aggro card, but it's...

    General Boros has a really, really boring theme. Alternatives?

    On a side not: Could use some work, but I dig the flavor.

    General Boros has a really, really boring theme. Alternatives?

    Jamie has definitely changed the most out of any character from the series. He's pretty much a W character at this point, though he was different tinges of W/B/R at different points. He's lost quite a bit of the black though as the series has gone on. Agree w/Tyrion as U/R, I don't see any black...

    Is Shorecrasher Elemental worth running just for devotion? I just traded some chaff for a copy at FNM last night.

    Can't really make it fair unless the cube does degenerate shit. In most matches, T4 Geddon with any board advantage is usually game. Just an unfun card to play against and takes a lot of decision making and intrigue out of the game. Do you have a counter? No? Guess I'll just wreck your shit...

    General Building cubes for newer players, Cubing minimalism

    I think the best thing would be to look over a few core sets and analyze the mechanics and cards present within them. What do they share? What is the baseline power level? How much complexity can you actually introduce to a new player before it's overwhelming? You want enough cards that are...

    Onderzeeboot's Khans of Alara WUBGR Cube

    Zotan's land-stealing ability is kind of strange to see on a Jund card, kinda sticks out. I can't really rack my brain for anything really interesting though, I think Jund, then +1/+1 counters, then Kresh. What if you return sacrificed creatures instead of lands? Also, does Whirpool really...
