    The Modern Utopia Cube

    I like Signal Pest a lot since it's a 1-drop and it wears equipment really well, but it is admittedly a card with a large internal power band. While I wouldn't cut it, I can understand the position. Since red decks have so many non-creature spells, the 1-drop prowess creatures Monastery...

    Article Cross-Appeal in Cube — Recipes to Avoid the Pitfalls of Parasitic Archetypes

    That is an interesting perspective, I thought this article was about Submarines.

    General Let me draft your cube

    Yeah, Erik's advice on dorks is not something I would follow. Green decks want to get their ramp plan going as quickly as possible, and the 1-mana mana dorks are the best way to do it. Having 8 or more 1-mana dorks allows for multiple green drafters to be able to reach the density on 1-mana...

    General Self Mill (without big reanimation)

    I'm doing a Sidisi/Whip package in my cube. Here's what I'm using to enable it: Stitcher's Supplier Satyr Wayfinder Grisly Salvage Winding Way Mire Triton Tymaret Calls the Dead Life from the Loam Stinkweed Imp Golgari Grave-Troll (I think most of those were mentioned already here- but they're...

    General Favorite Planeswalker Cards?

    It largely depends on power level. Elspeth's main role is as a control finisher and to a lesser extent, a midrange mirror breaker. As long as your aggro decks are capable of winning before turn 6, and your midrange decks can deal with the -3, she's fine.

    General Subtheme: Weenie Recursion

    I love Nullpriest! It's super flexible and it makes it in to so many decks.

    General Subtheme: Weenie Recursion

    I think if I were to do a weenie recursion package it would look something like: Return to the Ranks Rally the Ancestors Then using those to allow for an instant kill with some combination of: Corpse Knight Impact Tremors Goblin Bombardment Weaponize the Monsters Blasting Station Lampad of...

    General CBS

    The easiest way to filter them out is with the "is:mdfc" filter. You don't get any art cards or stuff like that then.

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    Every escape card: Elspeth, Sun's Nemesis Good but not game breaking. She does more work in cube than anywhere else because she provides any white deck with a card advantage engine not normally available to the color. Good card, please play. Sentinel's Eyes A fine card for low power formats...

    [Article][KHM] The Eldrazi Winter Cube

    I think the majority of the green cards in this cube are weak enough until the massive Eldrazi that you could get away with playing the cheap mana dorks. Almost all of the green creatures costing less than 6 mana seem extremely Janky, and that's a large part of why I think the color needs the...

    [Article][KHM] The Eldrazi Winter Cube

    I think there are several things you could do before posting this to CubeCobra for a better reception. A section about power level is warranted, although you should remember that the CubeCobra content creation audience is primarily composed of people who do not build powered cubes. I wouldn't...
