Holy crap. A friend of mine just brought this alter under my attention. Klug might have done the ultimate alter here, it's perfect! (link) It's currently up for auction. Bring a large wallet.

I was just triggered by a post in another thread. Why are we looking at evergreen keywords only? Persist (the word that triggered me), for example, was definitely green and blue, and would be a cool keyword to use! Exalted is another one that blue and green shared back in Alara block.

Well, is it a curve, really, if it all but "stops" at four and starts again at seven? I don't think the exact number matters, but I do think you should have a more or less even distribution over the different CMC' (though heavily slanted towards CMC 2 and 3).

Aha, it was the 500-card mystery jank box! You never know what jank you are going to get!

Green can suffer more four drops than most colors, since ramp is part of its core identity. That said, I run six 4-drops in green (including Garruk Wildspeaker), six 5-drops, two 6-drops, and two 7+-drops. Looking at your cube I'ld say your CMC 4 slot is not the problem in green, especially...

For the record, I'm running both :)

No problem. In that case I personally would go with the cut, but that might be personal preference. You can, of course, always test it out first, and if it proves too annoying cut it anyway.

That is also a very interesting option :) Gotta make sure people don't play it wrong though, if people play on autopilot by the art, that might be a problem. Maybe if you throw in some custom art? This one might work? https://www.deviantart.com/firebornform/art/Endings-and-Beginnings-380738481...

Fair enough. I do feel strongly you shouldn't go with a miserable keyword just because it happens to be the only available on-color-pie option. Better to break the cycle and cut the card altogether than introduce hexproof on an equipment that only needs to connect three times. Actually, trample...

Why not "both". What if... W Spell mastery — As long as there are two or more instant and/or sorcery cards in your graveyard, CARDNAME has flying. 2/1 I feel like this keyword wasn't used enough. It lends itself well for creature buffs like this I think.

Vigilance was moved to blue in Planar Chaos for a reason. While it's not currently in blue's color pie, it is very close to what blue can do, and it definitely is in green's color pie. I feel like it would be a reasonable keyword to put on there. In any case, I wouldn't be opposed to cutting...

Yes it is, it's also a 7 drop! :)

Hmm... Blue and green can both untap creatures, maybe vigilance? It's not necessarily in blue's color pie, but it's also not too far removed from what it can do. Of course vigilance is also annoying, but I imagine it's less annoying than hexproof.

My bad :')

Prowess! And then you remove hexproof from Body and Mind and find something else, because hexproof suuuuuuuuucks and Body and Mind is already the strongest sword in limited.

I've seen some people praise this one, maybe that's something you could try instead of the Phoenix? Thousand-Year Storm

$ wise, I don't think it can be made good enough in a spells matter build to be worth the cost. I feel there's other payoffs that work better and are cheaper to acquire. Stuff like Young Pyromancer and Rise from the Tides. I think TrainmasterGT made a very succinct case for why Arclight Phoenix...

It's mainly too expensive to even try out :')

I love the card. It's not a bad thing to have something against aggro, and while this is a roadblock, they can deal with it.
