    Jason Waddell's Cube

    oh fuck that get regrowth out of here, I didn't even see that :P It's got the same problem as all the mirage tutors: Very little is worth going a card/tempo down to get. It's a little closer because it's more demonic tutor than vampiric tutor, but still. Witness is fine because it adds to the...

    CML's Cube (405, polychromatic)

    I prefer adding a hard counter in this environment, but it's certainly possible. Card's definitely more interesting than mana leak, and leak is fine here.

    Man, where is hannes anyways? Haven't seen him round these parts in ages

    Card/Deck Black 2 drops

    Then when he comes back from the yard you can unleash him, making him a 4/3. That was definitely the original templating, but no way am I printing a 4 power 2 drop with the only drawback being "has to die first"

    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

    The Music Thread

    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

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

    Clearly sensei needs to be a 2/1 imo

    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.
