I am not a huge fan of either. You already have Six that does something similar to the Tortoise, not sure if you need to double up on that effect. As for the Wolf, it's basically worse than all your other removal spells. In Red you have Mawloc and Pyrogoyf + burn that put it to shame. Black has...

A lot of data that helps see trends of a bigger picture. What jumped out at me is that sacrifice decks seem to be really struggling: 3/9, 11/28, 9/23 total of 23/60 = 38%! There seems to be a lot of fodder and sacrifice outlets, but not many payoffs for sacrificing stuff. Zulaport Cutthroat...

Glimpse the Impossible Potential to “draw” 3 for 3 mana. Fill your GY or give you sacrifice fodder/ramp. Maybe more middle-high than low-middle though. Elemental Eruption It doesn’t take many spells to make this worth it. Power level depends on your spell velocity slots. Rionya, Fire Dancer...

This seems like a real danger to me. Why pay 9 or 10 mana if I can pay 6 and get the same benefit. For that reason, I would probably take a hard look at any card costing 4+ mana and see if it takes away from the Eldrazis (generically powerful) or adds to them (tutors them up, ramps up to them...

Hadn't considered that point, I'll have to think about it some more. It's just really appealing as a control/value engine. Ah crap, brain fart! That's really where I am at right now. I'll wait and see what Dom comes up with for the ProTour, I'm sure he already broke it in half in testing...

Dark Depths? With Wight of the Reliquary, you have more tutors that could do work. Shifting Woodland is great here as a way to get it to combo. I’ve also been considering adding another land sacrifice outlet and Sylvan Safekeeper could protect the token. Then there are a few counter cards that...

Weird MH3 cards Speaking of underestimating, I am thinking that I didn't give Six the correct amount of thought for a card that does so much. Six Single Green pip, 2/4 body and reach is a very solid baseline. I don't love creatures having such a big butt, but at three mana, it's not as...

I think I hit gold. Here I was tripping with my stupid Chromatic Stars, but then I realized I can go harder Clown Car It’s scalable! You can cast it for 0 to trigger prowess and stuff or for 6 late game. You get artifact tokens, counters and vehicles all in one. Excited to see where I end up!

I was wondering if you had feedback regarding the Prototype cards that you play. Steel Seraph Phyrexian Fleshgorger I am looking for ways to trigger Simulacrum Synthesizer and these two seem pretty good! They would let me shave an artifact fatty and still keep my density and give me some cool...

That's a good point I hadn't considered. That would tie artifact sacrifice with the Green land recursion which is pretty novel. I could see one or two, but not that much more because of the space issues you mentioned. I had the option of going down that route during the draft, but decided to...

I like showcasing what I consider cool decks and I just go a sweet one using Second Sunrise as a combo piece. Ones 1 Hangarback Walker 1 Mishra's Bauble 1 Zuran Orb 1 The Underworld Cookbook 1 Wizard's Rockets 1 Experimental Synthesizer 1 Greater Gargadon 1 Goblin Welder 1 Novice Inspector...

I find the third option kind of depressing considering the title of your thread… Your list inspired me to brew with higher mana value cards (think Myr Enforcer + Pod) and while I think it’s a cool space it’s less epic than the Titans. I have a big preference to your first option because of the...

Looks like it's your turn to inspire, that is a great package to tie the room together. Tameshi, Reality Architect lotus Bloom Second Sunrise Contrary to Thopter/Sword, the individual pieces go into more shells. Sunrise is a great aristocrat card, kind of like Afterlife Insurance doubling...

Right now I am leaning on the unoriginal Chromatic Star There are so many aspects of the card to exploit in addition to being mana fixing.

If I see these two in a pack and no other information about the cube, I would take the Demonic Tutor. It can go in both fair and unfair decks alike since it isn't card disadvantage. Yes it's too easy IMO, no it's not too expensive. I'm conflicted in regards to tutors because the generic ones...

Maybe it’s time for Jason’s Chancellor of the Dross meme to finally shine?

Love that Spirit Guide choice because it would definitely catch me off guard! Plus it’s essentially colorless so maybe more open ended?

Have you considered switching to a different cheat package that would allow you to wirk with different targets? Oath could still fit, but Tinker and Welder would be less effective. Sneak Attack Natural Order Flash With these ones, you can fit some fatties more in line with your goals...

Keep it coming! I like where your head is at and sometimes the cards themselves don't get there, but the idea behind it gets me thinking. Like here I don't really want Mindslaver in the cube, but I had forgotten about Academy Ruins. I love utility lands and this one can get back some interesting...
