Quantum Riddler Uro, titan of nature’s wrath Lotus field Honestly forgot about Stifle but it’s good disruption that can double as a synergy piece.

I had a Paradox Haze + Chronomantic Escape kitchen table deck. Man I sucked…

Fantastic finds! Would have missed the Plaything in a Scryfall search for sure. I've been looking at this card with draw 7s to mill your library out for Thassa's Oracle, but this is a much more sane home for Eruth. Definitely will check it out for inspiration. I was exploring the theme a...

I can’t block Warriors, so the symmetry puts me off it. But the upside is there!

Heroes' Hangout is the nudge I needed to explore "cast from exile" archetype. I've never played the archetype but I feel like I've been seeing payoffs here and there and want to see what that looks like. If someone plays it, I'd love to hear how it goes for you. We've been getting a ton of...

Pro: Creature sagas are really cool Con: This one doesn't have many synergistic hooks Pro: If you want to push control, this one really hoses aggro decks well Con: If you want to push aggro, this one really hoses aggro decks well

I share your aversion to narrow two-card combos (it's why they aren't in the cube) but for some reason, I'm drawn to them. Maybe it's the fact that Depths and Thopter/Sword have a window in which your opponent can respond. Or that they take up so little real estate in your deck to close out the...

Do I need cheat targets? A lot of real estate is dedicated to supporting the cheat archetype, especially the artifact version. That goes for both cheat targets and ways to get them into play. My targets are these right now Angel of the Ruins Griselbrand Bolas's Citadel Myr Battlesphere...

Garland is one I have my eyes on. DRC’s ability is really strong at either filtering your draws or filling the GY. I wouldn’t mind another efficiently costed body with the ability! Not putting any weight on the recursion, because it’s 7 mana, but it’s bound to happen from time to time.

I don’t mind having an obvious archetype (like blink) as it’s an easy thing to latch onto if you are a beginner or want to draft easy mode. This is especially true if you have some other complicated decks that are draftable. That said, not a huge fan of Soulherder because of how fragile it is. I...

Cool inspiration for the old bordered archetypes thread. I love Phyrexian Dreadnaught decks. Stifle, Fling, Greater Good and more!

I've made a bunch of changes to the cube, mostly cycling cards from the maybeboard in and out to match my design goals. Prison/Stax Rishadan Port Ethersworn Canonist Spider-Woman I've come to terms with the fact that I love prison decks and want them to be part of the cube. I started playing...

Tarfire? :p I like Fanatic and Bannaret best from your choices. Spikeshot Elder I like this one for your power level. Fragile, but with a high ceiling if you can build around it. Prowess and Goblins can probably pump it and so can equipment.

Phyrexian dragon engine?

Rydia, summoner of mists She hits a few notes here and has been good for me at just rummaging through the deck. Orcish Lumberjack A 5 drop on turn 2 is serious power! Raging Ravine An oldie that gets the job done and adds threat density to your decks

Do you go out of your way to support Warp with extra blink effects and haste enablers? My first thought is that most cubes already have plenty of synergy without the need to specifically add Warp “support”.

Chandra, Acolyte of Flame She is a fun walker! Small tokens to buff or sacrifice and a pseudo Snapcaster Mage ability ties a lot of themes in Red.

I don’t like Control Magic effects and that extends to Dack. Removing an artifact is one thing, stealing it is such a huge tempo swing. If you have an artifact cheat deck, it gets even worse! That said, the looting ability is amazing and maybe I’m too conservative here.

I am completely off, my bad. Looks like I tried to will it into existence…

It’s the power rather than mana value. So you could Thundertrap Trainer, Fanatic of Rhonas or Winged Splicer on the first trigger and it would still be pretty good. Not high power, but I can see it leading to a lot of fun.
