Eidolon of Blossoms. Can't resist the value train!

Why does Paliano Vanguard need a giant list? Most of the time you're going to need to write down two creature types. I think it's a fine card honestly. Edit: It also feels like a shame to cut the draft matters theme from blue completely. Is Arcane Savant too much in this list? I also feel like...

Huh... You're right. Maybe "If you cast ~ from your hand, draw a card" then. But by now where getting into pretty Arcane formulas, just to entice people to maybe maindeck a card with a "you can play this from your sideboard" mechanic. I'm starting to get convinced the only correct way to do this...

So, would something like... Reflexive Dismissal {3}{u}{u} Instant Internalized (You may cast ~ from your sideboard if you exile a blue card from your hand in addition to paying its casting cost.) Counter target spell. Draw a card. ... be worth it? Obviously the mana cost can be discussed, but...

Fair enough! The fun is in assembling the right lands. If you have lots of mana fixing, that should be a relatively mundane task though, and the reward for basically drafting the right mana fixing and constructing a good mana base is huge. I think this mechanic (casting cards from the sideboard)...

Looks like a wicked commander to me, not so good in cube though, I think. There's only so many expensive spells you can put in your cube to support this card, and I fear it's just never going to come together.

Doesn't look like purely a combo card to me! It looks like a grinch value engine! Get back a removal spell, get back a card draw spell, copy Cruel Ultimatum, still have that removal and card draw spell in your hand. Unless you drew so many good cards that you have to discard the card draw spell...

I think this does too much. Being able to cast this from your sideboard is, like, really, really, really strong, since it's essentially a free card. It kinda functions as a conspiracy card in a way, and we all know how busted the good ones are. (Not that they can't be fun, but still.) In...

Izzet Guildmage has a cmc restriction on what it can copy, so those delve spells don't play well with it. Some options that do work (though their playability sometimes depends on other things, like the availability of discard outlets. Spot the Laboratory Maniac combo card...): Avacyn's Judgment...

Been thinking a bit about Time of Ice, and that saga seems really playable on second thought.

Yes, I know just the person! ;)

The only thing I'm worried about is that they're hard to interact with, since they're enchantments.

Still not too much of a fan of the frame, though I'm getting used to it, but they're nailing it with the art!

Hey Tom, welcome back! Catching up could be as "easy" as sifting to the first few pages of the forum, reading any topic that seems interesting. There's no compiled list of current cubes, but most active members have a link to their active cube(s) in their signature! Finally, I'm afraid it's been...

Just try it, you can always take it out! :) It's an incredible attacker in a creature-dense deck, but it can't block, so the self-recurring element only pushes the game forward instead of stalling it like, say, Reassembling Skeleton can do. Speaking of which, if you're looking more for a card...

Ah, cool touch then!

Pitty they changed the flavor text on Llawnmower Elves. I liked the 5th edition flavor text. Also, Chainer's Torment? Chainer's still alive? Or is his biography just being quoted?

I don't know how original Ravnica you want to keep your cube, but... Pit Fight This card secretly pushes midrange as well, because you want to have bigger creatures than your opponent to make use of it. Streetbreaker Wurm feels fine as a midrange option still, or if you want to go bigger...
