That sounds fair, I can probably let the total equilibrium of the color pairs rest a bit and just live with the fact that blue and green won't really have the same kind of proactive plans, so that I can get completely suprised when some players just goes and 3-0's a UGx aggro deck.

No, I'm convinced its ham handed but I'm sort of sticking to formula. I was originally just going to run 2 raptors, but when I looked at some of the pairs I just didn't find an easy out like UR and WU, where tokens help glue together the delver and other respective one drops. I felt like a deck...

Yeah, I'll try to be wary of that. I'm thinking that by making these 3-offs that showcase what the color partially cares about, drafting a "sweet deck" should naturally lean you towards also being interested in the one drops. My hypothesis is that if for instance black does a bunch of sweet...

deadly recluse There's your answer :p But maybe you could add more reach-granting combat tricks kind of like spidery grasp? Or what colors do you imagine will have troubles with a bunch of superman decks?

I'm more moving numbers around, since this doesn't really change the number of one drops just changes what one drops I'm running. I like the idea of doubling up on some hybrid color beaters though. The question I'm trying to answer right now is what does proactive decks do in this cube and when...

So I got a suggestion to just revamp the cube completely and declaw control, to give players breathing room while plying thematic aggro decks. I'm essentially forcing out a aggro 3-0 deck, so that I can re add stuff like finks and Thragtusk and Toxic Deluge. My aggro suite is also going to be...

And why should it even matter, as long as the ideas hold value.

It isnt; but I like the a idea of proactive blue decks

bident of thassa curiosity edric, spymaster what other cards makes a player with islands wanna connect with their creatures? The 'single card' here is some hypothetical "whenever a creature you control deals damage to a player draw a card"

You'd have to speak their language! But I like the idea of letting boros showcasing this passionate quality outside of a bunch of really really enthusiastic army men. Maybe we can make "martial artists" literal? The brush of conquerors! A chisel of righteousness! Ours is the lyre that will...

What happens if you kill the demon in response to the trigger? You'd still need to discard right? But you can't play it for its madness cost anymore?

What dash cards are you running? It actually seems like a really sweet mechanic, when you're looking for all kinds of different triggers. (Dashing in with mardu scout with a Purphoros seems filthy)

By the same token I don't think running eesh norn sounds very fun I'm going with battlesphere. At least you can like, wrath or doom blade it or something, sundering titan can just end games when cast in an uninteractive way.

lust for war Has anyone tried this in their cubes? Maybe more in the lower power ones, but I think it looked interesting in the ROE drafts I saw it. It's a real tempo swing against a slower deck that doesn't want to race and just wants to go long. Makes me want to build a sorcery speed removal...

The thing I dont like about cenobite is that it just locks you out from playing. I'm not keen on cards that let you get back on top of a board state from the back door, and playing this a few turns ahead against an aggresive deck just feels like boring and masturbatory.

I also think Charm has just incredibly sweet art. It just feels juicy to play it, even if its more efficent than it is splashy.

KTK was great, hush!

Seems like a hassle to play with, but still! Maybe you can have a counter on it or something? Land ~ enters the battlefield with a conquest counter. Whenever a creature you control attacks, if there isn't a conquest counter on ~, put a conquest counter on it. {T}: Add {1} to your mana pool...
