    No, I meant my regular cube :D Rise from the Tides is still in the Heritage Cube, though it has detain, not rebound ;) Detain is actually a pretty sweet ability on Rise, since all your zombies etb tapped, and detains helps getting to your untap step a lot!

    I had to cut it, because blue is no longer the spells matter color in my cube, which nearly broke my heart.

    Oh right, I forgot about Rimrock Knight. That's another one I run :)

    Yeah, I think it works best as a minor archetype. Don't focus too many resources towards it, run Feather, maybe a few of the heroes, maybe a few green cards because they work well with the fight and pump spells in that color. I slightly tweaked my burn suite and protective spells to increase the...

    Never tested that, and now I wonder why. Lifelink is extremely good, but this comes down quite late and it's kinda hard to control how much value you are getting out of it.

    Feather, the Redeemed has a sweet baseline that works regardless of whether you abuse her heroic trigger. The heroes from THB have actually been testing well for me, that is... hero of the pride hero of the games Hero of the nyxborn {R/W}, in my Wheel of Change cube, can lean heavily into...

    I've seen a hardcore spike, low cmc cube owner defend Nightpack Ambusher as a good green 4 drop. That should tell you something about its power level.

    General Counterspells

    I think counterspells are fun, and a core part of blue's identity, and (as ravnic rightly points out) necessary to answer various problems that blue can otherwise only temporarily answer. That said, I try to run not too many, because I like it when the blue player has to work for it a bit. The...

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    It's fairly trivial to kill a 2/2 in combat. A 2/2 with an attack trigger often has a hard time to trigger more than once. In the case of Gallia, it's all upside though. Pump, burn spells, and Frenzied Goblin-effects can do a lot of work on cards like this though. Plan your support spells around...

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    Satyr tribal isn’t really a thing outside of Gallia, so other than maybe picking up some incidental tribal value, I don’t think I would.

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    It’s incidental value, you’re probably going to be okay. I’ve ran Gray Merchant of Asphodel in my multicolor cube because it’s simply a super decent five drop in black. It provides both reach and some life gain, both of which are desirable. I’ve never had people assume there’s a secret monoblack...

    Card/Deck Low Power Card Spotlight

    Yes. I would sharpie out the satyr buff if you're not running any other satyrs. That said, Boon Satyr, Firedrinker Satyr, Reckless Reveler, and Satyr Wayfinder are playable cards.

    Another alternative is to look at your blink cards. Just to name two examples. Flickerwisp This card doesn't care for blink targets, in a, presumably offensive, {r/w} deck, it can exile a blocker for a turn so your creatures can get in. Charming Prince This card likes blinkbables, but...

    Oof... Yeah, that's too bad. Maybe WotC could help out there? I mean, not that I think powered cubes are better, but they definitely are a big part of the general appeal of the format, and the MtGO Vintage Cube is one of the most famous cubes.

    I fail to see how three days of nonstop cubing can be anything other than completely amazing, so I can imagine how you're feeling :D Also, are any people from WotC going to be attending? Will there be cubes with custom cards? Can't probably say yes to both, right?

    Interested in the coverage! Being from Europe (and without limitless pockets of money and time), sadly not going to be able to play.
