Before you decide to go with stoneforge I'd do a an as-fan calculation and look at what equipment you'd actually wanna run. I've heard people talk about running not high-power stoneforge and it's gotten mixed results. Really like the list though! Might take some notes :) In the red section...

Little kid got nukes

You all need Jesus! Worm harvest So on a scale of brilliant to durdle, where does this end up? I'm looking for more incentives to have a fist full of lands. I actually like the fact that it can be played in a pretty dedicated mono green deck with cards like harrow and life from the loam.

So, I sat with a notepad doing some mental inventory and realised I wanted to have a list of what nekrataals there exists (that are worth running). We've had some of them mentioned pretty recently. I'm foremost looking for black ones but any color probably works, as long as it's not an oblivion...

I'm happy seeing some more drafts, thanks all! I think that's a very good point. I've added themes and by the looks of it people drafting the cube can sort of sense it, but your right in that I haven't been consistent with the themes throughout the curve. I'm feeling like it would probably be...

From what I've seen in Origins it seems like they've gotten a good hang on the tasteful tribal design

Mill is shuffling your opponents deck

I mostly feel worried about the risk of adding too much board gloc.

It'll be neat to see how they'll use the exiled cards with the other Eldrazi cards.

I'd love it if people gave the cube a spin (link here). I'm trying to get a grasp on the following questions: Is my fixing to good, where it is a trivial cost to splash for powerful cards? Do my color section lack direction, does there seem to be an in-color lack of theme? Is there a lack of...

I love it, rewards people for doing good sequencing and is a very green way to do aggression.

http://www.cubetutor.com/viewcube/36919 New Update! With Origins out I reassembled my cube. The draft I did past Saturday had a Thalia Red Deck Wins emerge as 3-0, with only me on Esper being the other non-green drafter (That's six X/g decks in a 8 man pod!). This got me thinking about how my...

I don't have any lists sadly from that draft, and I'll post the cubetutor in my thread. I did notice though that 6 out of 8 drafters played green! The decks that got drafted were 2 Temur midrange decks, 2 Junk midrange decks, 1 Sultai control deck, 1 Jund aggro deck and finally me on Esper...

I guess the value goes up if you're running lands matter stuff like molten vortex

Then what sparks drafters imagination?

That's a pretty good point. This relates a bit to what you've been talking about regarding power bands, I've been thinking about being conscious about negative space. Maybe people will gravitate towards certain decks if I limit certain effects to certain colors of the themes?

This is coco

I think ultimately what I'm looking for is a way to promote a format where people draft more focused decks, ie follow certain guidelines I've put in there. I want decks to have more of a game plan than occasional synergy and more of a personality than just a pile of sweet cards.

So this is an issue that has been talked about here a little bit that showed up during the draft I ran today. We had a full 8 man playing my cube sporting the classic double fetch double dual (abu+shock for me). Every single deck was 3 colored except for the winning RDW deck. The issue of rdw...

That is interesting, because I see it as a very go-big deck kind of card. Low-curve decks doesn't sound like those who would want to win through attrition? I can understand that it takes possibly too much work too get it above firebolt level, but maybe it slots better in a GR ramp deck than a RB...
