New question! Can anyone suggest a cut to fit in Wild Beastmaster? The cube has been updated a BUNCH and is now ready for my ORI cards to come in, but I also want to try the Beastmaster out.

Hey, Wild Beastmaster! She seems like she could be good in a few archetype decks. Anyone tried her?

This is backtracking a bit, but Sire of Insanity is a fabulous EDH card. So is Havoc Festival. My wife's main deck is a Kaervek the Merciless mass burn/constellation/curse/demon toolbox deck that runs both (and Manabarbs of course!), and when she pulls it out you can just watch the control...

I do! I really, really want to ramp into Aurora. It seems like it'll play more interactively than Upheaval, since you both get some land back, but you get to drop your big boy first. Like, I know 9 mana is huge, but one 9-mana card in the Green section isn't going to kill my Cube (my wide power...

*reads posts about how terrible EDH and its players are, laughs heartily* *remembers that I have 12 EDH decks, feels obligated to post but has no good argument other than "you're wrong because I like EDH so it must not be bad"* I will say though that everyone I play EDH with is a personal...

The best kind of beater there is <3

I'm also heavily in favor of Graveblade Marauder. I said something flippant about him in the ORI spoiler thread, but real talk, my drafters LOVE graveyard synergies. I originally ran a peasant Cube with Grim Guardian as part of Abzan's enchantment/lifedrain theme (there was also a GB graveyard...

I've been lurking in Grillo's painland cube thread for a bit and it got me thinking about Manabarbs ...Which is a card I love, especially in Commander where it's troll level maximum. Is this thing any good in an unpowered-but-mostly-traditional cube setting?

In UG, my paper cube runs kiora, edric, snakeform, mystic snake, and trygon predator. However, in CT-only cubes, i've tried stuff like zameck guildmage and a 1/1 counter theme, or various flash guys like horizon chimera with extra flashers in U and G. You can also run juicy ramp targets in UG...

Is that mage-ring storage land worth testing? It seems like a decent low-cost mana sink for control/midrange/ramp decks, but then again it might be way narrower than I am thinking right now.

This is backtracking/offtopic a bit, but does anyone run Sharuum the Hegemon in their cubes? She seems legit if you have the discard outlets and artifatties to support her, plus unlike Sphinxkroma she doesn't have pro-colors. EDIT: To make this post about Prison, imagine she's bringing back...

i run crypto and illest kor, but thought courier has the same problem as merlooter: i think he is boring.

Hmm, maybe if he put any artifact on top instead of into hand... Although tbh i can foresee situations where i would be willing to use the ability as-is just to shuffle. But man that text is awkward.

So with all the spoilers up now, I have snap-preordered a few things to test: White Kytheon/Gideon—Nuff said bruh Relic Hunter—Just finished adding a crapton of equips to the cube, so he seems at least worth a test run Blue Jace—I mostly just want a looter that isn't Merfolk Looter, but I...

Yo guys can we talk about The Great Aurora tho For some reason I have a burning desire to ramp super hard into this

I know this is a triple post, but the Cube just got a big update to prepare for the release of ORI. Some of the things I was trying to accomplish: -More combat tricks (Gods Willing, Vapor Snag, Undying Evil, Titan's Strength, Become Immense) -More 1-2 cost stuff to increase sequencing decisions...

I've always wanted to build a Triad EDH deck, but all my good blink targets are in an Athreos stax deck instead... On topic, I think Triad will do work in splicers, but it is definitely slow. Feels like something that would be great against midrange, maybe? But it's really hard to evaluate...

http://www.cubetutor.com/cubedeck/350310 Maybe the third try is the charm. This deck feels more focused than the Esper one. I definitely like how easy it is to get fixing in this cube. Blood Artist was my P1P1.

Hmm... Maybe I could make a pack full of utility lands, or a pack full of super-narrow enablers/buildarounds/payoffs... Yeah, there's some possibilities here.

Thanks for the input y'all! I was trying to think of a way to flatline my power level more without straight-up cutting the redonk cards that pretty much everyone loves. (For example, my wife's favorite cube moment ever was when she Sneak Attack'd Emrakul in a Worldknit deck ftw—like, how does...
