Got a draft in online yesterday and it was to the surprise of nobody a good time! The draft portion went a bit slower than normally, but that is because we are more used to playing with our friend's cube than mine. The less enfranchised players were a bit taken aback by the recent trend of very...

Yeah, I wanted to slot in Griselbrand and couldn't figure out which 6+ drop for it. So in the meantime I made a fast cut with the Whisperer. I do want it back in though as I've noticed that Baneslayers tend to play well in multiplayer. People don't want to waste removal on a creature that isn't...

How dare you! See this is why you need an outside look sometimes. I really like the card and have a hard time being objective. Doesn't help that I drafted a couple decks where it seems decent: Lands 1 Marsh Flats 1 Verdant Catacombs Ones 1 Hangarback Walker 1 Greater Gargadon 1 Bomat Courier...

Right now, I have a problem with my black 6+ CMC cards. I have too many of them and I have a tough time choosing what to cut. Here is what I have/want to run: Professor Onyx Bolas's Citadel Noxious Gearhulk Marionette Master Griselbrand Tasigur, the Golden Fang Gyruda, Doom of Depths...

I think this card has potential to play really well. 1. It's cheap and instant speed so you it's really easy to keep mana open or double spell. 2. It can be used aggressively to clear a blocker if you think you can close the game soon or to press your advantage. 3. It can be used defensively if...

Fair reanimator in BW! 2 drop with late game relevance. Good creature types, and bonus sacrifice synergy. Love it!

2 cards I've been super happy with in Green for tokens are: Jolrael, Mwonvuli Recluse Esika's Chariot Jolrael needs some accommodating to fit into the cube, but having Clarion Spirit + Jolrael along with Mishra's Bauble, Manamorphose, Thraben Inspector, Explore, Chromatic Star and others is...

Rhys the Redeemed Small tokens, but hybrid mana and late game potential.

I think a small spells package is a really fun way to go. You already have all of these Clarion Spirit Sevinne's Reclamation Battle Screech Elspeth, Sun's Nemesis Wild Mongrel Noose Constrictor Roar of the Wurm Honored Hydra Add in a few more payoffs and enablers and you have a distinct...

Supporting stormless storm So I quite like how the cantrips and Strixhaven cards are playing a big role in my cube right now. However, I did notice that Blue and Red the traditional spellsmatter colors are kind of left out right now. I will be adding a couple of payoffs to try and boost them...

If you want to keep the exploration aspect of your cube alive, maybe that is too much differentiating for the player guide. For the cube designer guide, go nuts! I personally like the small archetype snapshots with 6ish cards. You lose some subtlety, but the message is transmitted efficiently.

I think that for "small storm" to work, you need to be playing a critical mass of cheap cantrips, free spells and mana acceleration that other decks are also interested in. Inscho has a great list of enablers and I would add: Manamorphose Pentad Prism Harrow Dark Petition Pentad Prism is a...

Traxos, Scourge of Kroog Fun one to build around and ties into other themes as well. I find that I am a bit short on instants and sorceries in White and I'm looking for multicolored cards that are WX to fill those holes. They should fit into more proactive decks if possible (could be things...

Happy to brainstorm with you. Take some suggestions with a grain of salt, as I haven't tried Armix for example. Seems to fit nicely in theory though. As for cuts, looking at your list I noticed that you have 2 pretty similar 3 drops, so one could maybe go. Woe Strider Yahenni, Undying Partisan...

I hear that. However, you are running Daretti, Scrap Savant that says basically the same :P I think that adding Armix, Foundry and Beacon would be enough to have at least a functional artifact control deck where the pieces have value in other contexts. I especially like Armix in a RB shell...

You are also just close to having an artifact Dimir control deck. It's mostly blue artifact payoffs with black removal, but Marionette Master is great at ending games. Here is where Lurrus of the Dream-Den is so good at complementing Emry to recur baubles and such, but I get that it's too...

I agree with the others, that Kenrith is a solid threat, but he is pretty slow and mana intensive. I don't think it's impossible to catch up even after a few activations. I'll agree with Erik that the +5 life can get dumb though. Don't sleep on the Red ability, haste and trample ends games...

Yeah, Whip of Erebos is just too harsh on aggressive decks which already climb an uphill battle. It is a cool card though. I'll be trying technique then and hope to live the dream with a Thassa's Oracle + mill the last 10 cards of my library.

Liliana, Death's Majesty Incarnation Technique I have a multiplayer cube, pretty high powered, but lacking a lot of the battlecruiser cards (that you would want to reanimate). I am looking for a value reanimation spell for this slot and have these two in mind (I already have Dread Return and...

If you can stomach a 5 color Omnath, Locus of Creation pile, here is one with self-mill, discard, fetches and recursion to take full advantage of the Frog. Ones 1 Fastbond Twos 1 Tarmogoyf 1 Satyr Wayfinder 1 Scavenging Ooze 1 Jace, Vryn's Prodigy 1 Sylvan Library 1 Farseek 1 Grapple with the...
