    CML's Cube (405, polychromatic)

    My opinion: Less finding more doing. Mystical Tutor is banned because it lets you find broken cards like reanimate, or entomb. If a card in your cube is worth being played at a turn later down a card, it's probably too good, and I don't even think reanimate or entomb fit that bill. I get that...

    Jason Waddell's Cube

    Assuming the changes above, I'm not a huge fan of lifebane zombie, he doesn't sound interesting to me (Lots of mediocre times with Dauthi Marauder) and the hosing factor rubs me the wrong way. I think he could go. I like this over unearth because this way you're cutting pressure for pressure...

    Jason Waddell's Cube

    Sounds good to me. Any interest in curse of shallow graves or curse of predation? Predation doesn't need tokens to be good, just creatures, and curse of shallow graves has rightfully earned the nickname Zombieblossom in my cube. I've got Slagstorm over Anger of the Gods right now, and it might...

    General Print this Wizards! (So I can put it in my cube)

    Well technically he's usually closer to Rogue Elephant than shoreline thief, but yeah I see your point. That second point of power is just so key, and it's basically required for us to play an attacking creature

    Man I keep forgetting to check out Jedi Mind Tricks. Also spot on description of Hopsin James :D More of a songza guy myself, but my own persistent music library is rather small, so it's nice for discovery

    MMA-style Cube

    Mind you it could be fixed. The question you have to ask yourself is weather the archetypes in MMA are the ones you want for your starting point. We could make sunburst good, but do you like sunburst? Would it lead to good games?

    Card/Deck Black 2 drops

    Ah yes, he's a 2/1

    Clearly sensei needs to be a 2/1 imo

    General CBS

    While not the same thing, my 4 man drafts are usually 9 card packs. I think the utility land draft fits your theme better though.

    Card/Deck Black 2 drops

    Yeah he seems terrible. My version, for reference: Dauntless Corpse {1}{B} Creature - Zombie Warrior Undying ~ Enters the battlefield tapped. When ~ enters the battlefield, you may sacrifice it. (Alternately Evoke {1}{B} ) 2/1

    Card/Deck Making Delver Work

    I like the versions with restrictions better, like inquisition of kozilek, duress or addle (Which I play a 1cc version of) I can't remember if we discussed kibler's article here, the one where he's like "Thoughseize is just your opponent mulligining"? I'm inclined to agree. Not enough to remove...

    General Color matters / devotion

    I dunno, that might be pretty loose. Nobody's diving after zephyr charge, even in a format plagued with groundstalls. The scry 1 on upkeep is kinda like a looter, except you can't ditch flashback cards or vengevine. I think it needs the creature mode to be playable.

    Card/Deck Black 2 drops

    GRBS? Also Oona's prowler is a fine card, just not horribly synergistic. I'm usually a fan. I've got 2/1 ravenous rats and 1/1 flying entomb. You have blood artist right? He could be doubled up on...

    He really does make the lamest tokens ever doesn't he :P

    Card/Deck Single Card Spotlight

    I'd deffinitly count him as gold (which isn't much of a problem, reckoner and ram gang have done fine), but the problem comes in whenever you want utility lands. Wasteland, Mutavault and Nightveil Specter are the worst of buddies.

    Card/Deck Making Delver Work

    Nivmagus Elemental is too vulnerable to be channeling cards into, blue doesn't want rogue elemental, and Talarand is very slow. If young pyromacer has shown us anything, it's that landing before you do the majority of your spellcasting is key. Favorable winds could work, but I'm not the guy to...

    6 is really powerful. The only thing I don't like is the verse at the end where the lines keep repeating "crystal meth" over and over and over. I think it would have been a much more powerful message if the drug in question had gone unnamed, and the cynic in me kinda wants to believe that verse...

    Card/Deck Making Delver Work

    Delver and cloudfin raptor fit in very different decks. You should pick one, since they don't synergize with eath other. Since Raptor is easy and given the title of this thread, let's focus on delver: 1cc Triple Delver I think. I'd add less, but I don't think there's another 1 drop this deck...

    Also, how do we feel about this? One in a Million :1::w: Instant Instead of paying ~'s mana cost, you may exile a white card from your hand Target creature gains protection from the color of your choice until end of turn.

    Another Blue Stahli Fan! :D Personal Favorite from that kinda style right now: also anyone who even remotely likes hip hop needs to take a look at Hopsin yesterday:
