That's a fair point. I probably don't need to lean so heavy into old design sensibilities and archetype construction, because my cube is radically different now. I'm pretty shocked at how different and interesting the test-drafts play out with all of the cycling and secondary casting...

I actually really like Forbid, and with an up-tempo environment it can provide a nice buildaround for control. I just appreciate the axis of play for control, but I'm not necessarily above cutting it. It could be Neutralize, Supreme Will, or maybe Syncopate. But with the amount of...

I prefer Moldervine Cloak as well, but if you need something a tier or two lower in power, I suppose Monstrify could work. I'd definitely want some other cross synergy like lands in graveyards, spell or discard triggers to make it more interesting than just a piece of inevitability.

Do you want a flexible but incremental engine or a combo payoff? Flexible/Incremental = Ritual, Combo = Reclamation Hard to suggest one over the other without a list for context

Had a little bit of clarity with my white and green sections. Following changes: Out: Bygone Bishop Sram's Expertise Increasing Devotion In: Mentor of the Meek Battle Screech Angel of Invention With all of the blink, tokens, and recursion, Mentor is a better payoff than Bishop, and more...

I don't think he was serious

Squee is a favorite of mine, and he does so much work in this cube. If ever there's an opportunity to grind someone out with him and Zombie Infestation post Death Cloud, I'm taking it.

No in person drafting for now for me, but that just gives me some time to pick up everything

If I save a dollar a day until the coronavirus is no longer a concern, I might have enough to buy everything

Excavation Forgot about this card....it could almost be decent in my cube :D There's also: Foil Keldon Firebombers Spore Frog (BTW I'm totally cool with my cube blog turning into a masques block nostalgia club)

Playing with real cards is just a pleasure for me. I do proxy cards over $10 to test, until I'm sure I want them, but I dislike playing with proxies. I'd rather trade from my stock of random legacy, EDH, or hot Standard cards I'm sitting on to get what I need

Anyone do any online trading? What platform do you use? I was just estimating how much this newest revision of my cube is going to cost me, and almost soiled myself :oops:

I couldn't type fast enough

I’ve almost run this a few times avatar of woe And these will always have a special place in my heart: chimeric idol Mageta the lion But yeah prophecy is one of the worst sets for sure

Tweaked some selections to open up Gruul and Izzet. A couple more sample decks: Ones 1 Elixir of Immortality 1 Stream of Thought 1 Faithless Looting Twos 1 Thassa's Oracle 1 Wall of Lost Thoughts 1 Fae of Wishes 1 Improbable Alliance 1 Mana Leak 1 Shredded Sails 1 Radical Idea Threes 1...

It's a little clunky, but I could see scarecrone being enjoyable at a lower power level. A package like this could be fun: Unearth Apprentice Necromancer Epochrasite Perilous Myr Vesperlark Weaponcraft Enthusiast Scarecrone Scrap Trawler Skyscanner Sevinne's Reclamation Felidar Guardian...

Yeah, it’s definitely not strong enough for my environment, but I do admire its design. I remember desperately trying to make it a thing in constructed almost 20(!) years ago :D I’d love to see the design revisited and improved upon slightly

brought back I envision cracking a couple fetchlands and getting them right back, saving a couple bros from a wrath, or getting extra value with a sac outlet....getting back a mire's grasp, executioner's capsule, elspeth conquers death, etc. Is the WW casting cost enough to make it too awkward...

Thanks! I'm pretty pleased with how much tidier the last few sets have made things. I really struggled to find interesting identities in Bant and resorted to Show and Tell, Tinker, Dream Halls, Oath of Druids type cards to create interest. So Bant was essentially governing the overall power...

I'm less concerned with pure power level, because I find that Twister is strong enough for my cube. You do make a good point about flexibility in deck application. Twister kinda beats you over the head. It really feels like it has one application. Maybe that's why it annoys me so...
