This is my favourite design from Dragon’s Maze. It ties a lot of themes together and even helps gets the process started when protecting itself. It’s even better now with the prevalence of leave the GY triggers. Didn’t cube with it a lot, but enjoyed every moment of it!

Mishra’s Bauble is my favourite card by a mile, but Urza’s Bauble existed in Ice Age so not really novel. My favourite design is probably A legendary land with an epic payoff. Tells a story where you slowly thaw the ice and you get a 20/20 token! Now I’m not necessarily a fan of the various...

Personally, it’s the first time I’ve seen my list sorted like this. It makes me reevaluate some slots. Is Glimpe the Impossible (top 3 in Red for me) really worth it when it isn’t a crucial card but high on the wordiness scale? Plus this is cube. I’m going to over analyze my list with any...

Nirkana Cutthroat Pay 9 mana to have it survive

Decided to add a few of the cards from a previous posts, but only replacing Luminarch Aspirant (keeping Inti and Bristly Bill). Tireless Tracker Ivora, Insatiable Heir Grinding Station A few decks that showcase their potential and has me convinced they belong. You might want to consider them...

Found a post on reddit (from Cheese853) where you can sort your cards by word count by pasting this at the end of your ube Cobra url: ?s4=Word+Count&s3=Unsorted&s2=Unsorted It uses the Oracle text and it looks like it counts reminder text. My wordiest card for each color are The Wandering...

Changelings, Zombies and Enchantments Decided to actually give the Black Changeling deck idea some more thought and the kindred payoffs that grabbed my attention the most were Roiling Dragonstorm Corroding Dragonstorm Corpses of the Lost Bouncing back to hand greatly helps the Flurry/Prowess...

I thought it would be cool to design around the fact that you are going to be able to draw your Omen again and again over the course of a game. Not only that, but to try and make a card that gets better the more times you draw it. One way to make sure of seeing a card more often is by milling...

sugar coat A teaspoon of sugar helps the medicine go down!

What tool are people using to build the customs btw? All of your cards look really good!

Ebon Praetor

Favorites first 1. Siege: Crucible effects are in demand in your cube because of the landfall and self-mill archetypes. This one clearly signals that you should be doing some GY/land shenanigans and the mill mode is a really fun goal to work towards in a Labman deck or as a mill win condition...

There is the Epiphany as well and Gravecrawler is a really solid enabler for the Roots. Also, Earthcraft, Gravecrawler and Altar is infinite storm and mill if you have another zombie (also infinite squirrels with Chatterstorm). It’s my cube and most of the token stuff is about using them as...

Not a P1P1 but I’d love some input. Drafted this so far, not sure where to go from there. I need zombies for Gravecrawler, but Grave-Troll is a solid enabler. Roots goes off hard with the Gravecrawler and the token generators. What would you take and why?

I was bummed that the 3 color hybrid cards didn’t fit into any of my cubes as I think they are pretty neat. Then it hit me, I have the perfect cube for them from a previous contest (The Omlette Cube). It’s built around 30 copies of Chromatic Star so fixing isn’t a problem. This means I can add...

That deck looks like a blast. If the Skyray is good enough, have you tried Ivora, Insatiable Heir? Is both a scaling payoff and enabler, with counters and artifact synergies. The trample could tie in with Berserkers too. I am strongly considering her for my cube, curious on your evaluation.

This is a good point and I'm not opposed to alternatives. For example, I regularly consider adding Lotus Petal to the cube to bolster the combo decks. In the right circumstances, an aggro deck could play it as an acceleration piece but it would be far from automatic and more balanced than Chrome...

Clocknapper (beginning phase)

I get what you are saying, but I actually don't mind that. I like my cube decks messy, where you have to branch out because you didn't draft the perfect deck. In the context of this card, maybe you have to branch out to an artifact deck and build a Scrap Trawler engine. Maybe you need to lean...
