20 decent artifact mana sources will probably lead you to a very midrange-y cube though.

I am probably going up to 450 cards to accommodate a larger gold section. Shift the temples from utility draft to cube, then add the trilands to the utility draft.

Conveniently, in D&D the optimizers talk about DPR, Damage Per Round. There's a DPR Kings thread that lists the most effective nova burst builds (i.e. the most damage in one turn). Not that those characters are fun to play for more than one session, as they thoroughly ruin all the fun for the...

Whenever you cast a noncreature spell, creatures you control get +1/+1 until end of turn. Untap those creatures. Whenever you cast a noncreature spell, you may draw a card. If you do, discard a card.

Goblinslide has the most amazing art and sweet flavor text :)

I'm not high on hexproof, though Prognostic Sphinx is not the worst offender I guess. Also, Doom Blade becomes Twiddle + Pain.

Prognostic Sphinx All these cards suck in cube people!

Slowtrips are so 1996!

Boomerang doesn't cantrip though. I imagine {1}{r}, where it would be a flipped Explore of sorts, is indeed the right cost for this to be playable.

Faulty Memory {2}{u}{u} Sorcery Delve Draw 3 cards, then discard one card for each card instant and sorcery card exiled to pay for this spell. Wail of the Dead {5}{b}{b}{b} Sorcery Delve Each player loses 1 life for each creature card in his or her graveyard. Put a 2/2 black Zombie creature...

Yes, major cube material! Human to boot, going by the art.

There's a lot of two-drops in this format spoiled so far, and morph ensures that they can trade up favorably. A lot of these cards should probably be played as bears with late game upside.

Evolving Expanse Land {t}, sacrifice Evolving Expanse: Search your library for up to three basic land cards. Put one of them onto the battlefield tapped and the rest into your graveyard. Then shuffle your library. Mnemonic Stone {2} Artifact Whenever you play a nonland card, put the top card of...

Some crazy delve design space: Veiled Assassin {2}{b}{b} Creature - Human Assassin Delve When Veiled Assassin enters the battlefield, target creature gets -X/-X until end of turn, where X is the amount of mana spent to cast Veiled Assassin. Veiled Assassin's power and toughness are each equal...

mudhole Fuck Crucible!

A 5/4 flying for four is already plenty playable. I have half a mind to up the number of gold spells in my cube again.

Avalanche Riders Good game sir!

Eytan Zana. Gorgeous art indeed. Is anyone else baffled that, for the first time ever, they seem to have their mana fixing in order in a multicolored block? Between colorless morphs and decent, playable mana fixing at every rarity, it looks like we can actually cast our wedge cards in limited...

I run a few 3-color cards in my cube: nicol bolas, planeswalker karador, ghost chieftain Maelstrom wanderer All of them are impactful when they hit the battlefield. The problem with cheap 3-color cards is that your mana base has to be able to support aggressive cards in three colors and their...
