I see a few issues with it: 1. The competition: You run a high powered cube and this dude has to compete with these other sacrifice fodder pieces: Deranged Hermit and Deep Forest Hermit. They hit harder, they give you ETB synergies and go into more decks (depending on supported archetypes...

Especially if you are trying to have artifacts matter in your cube, I think he is a pretty big problem. It feels like you are including a specific hate card for that deck. I'll echo what everyone is saying: the +1 is amazing though. I decided to replace it with The Royal Scions. I don't...

I understand what you mean now. So like Naya lands: (Just putting some payoffs/enablers, there are other options to tweak power level) RW: Aggro landfall Low to the ground aggro deck that gets above average beaters with landfall. Adventuring GearSteppe LynxAkoum HellhoundFearless...

How about doing the following (random example): Define the broad theme as a shard/wedge Sultai: Graveyard Then define what each guild does UG: Madness BG: Lands UB: Self-mill aggro or control That way you get the best of both worlds. The challenge comes when one of your guilds comes up twice...

I like the premise of the cube. If you are going for aggro-combo, then Naya could be a landfall shard. The Sultai GY cards could include some land recursion that pulls double duty. I'd love to see some kind of Mardu control shard (I love those decks). Control decks like Mardu Pyromancer from...

I am looking for green removal to keep interactions open in all color pairs and was wondering what people though of these for highish power level: Primal MightInscription of Abundance I like the scalability of both of these. 1 mana fight is efficient and there is a possibility of fireballing...

I think I like the Oriflamme the best here, as it comes out cheap and works on all creatures, not just the smaller ones. It wasn't quite worth the card when I tried it, but it was close. Judith, the Scourge Diva and Domri, Anarch of Bolas have the same effect, but aren't narrow (obviously...

I haven't seen it mention here yet, but I like this thing for unblockable/discard synergies: Key to the City Also random deathtouch guys can be good (Mire Triton, Foulmire Knight as decent examples that fit into a few themes).

I run quite a lot of artifacts (don’t have as-fan number) or artifact producing cards. What has me questioning is this deck: https://www.cubecobra.com/cube/deck/5f3d3cf09a900d0f8bdcfc67 It’s a BG Pod deck that incidentally has a lot of artifacts. Having Marionette Master instead of Herald here...

Herald of Anguish vs Marionette Master or both?! I want an artifact payoff card for my black decks, but I cannot chose which one. My artifact decks are usually tokens, sacrifice and/or cheat decks and black takes part in all of these. Herald seems better in a generic deck (even casting him...

I like the Riddleform, because it's cheaper, doesn't tie up your mana to deal damage and is a mana sink. You can bluff him on defense and if they don't attack you can scry. I can see him fitting in an aggressive/tempo shell as well as a more reactive control deck.

The Dragonmaster has played nicely for me in the current MTG Arena cube. You usually don't play him early, but you can use him to double spell with a solid 4 or 5 drop when you have 5-6 lands so as to overload the opponent. He is super vulnerable, so even if you get a dragon out of the deal...

I think these DFC are extremely powerful just because you essentially have an extra spell slot at the cost of having one of your lands ETB tapped. Depending on environment, that can be more or less impactful, but overall, I think these are very positive as a way to mitigate variance in games of...

I completely forgot Dreadhorde Arcanist. He fits right in and branches nicely into spells matter. Good call!

If you want to expand landfall to other colors, a UG midrange/GY value deck is perfect for this. Blue and green both have great enablers to fill the graveyard (Grapple with the Past, SatyrWafinder and Merfolk Looter for example). Blue also generally likes using the GY in other decks, so it...

I've tried a few so far. I went 5-3 with a BG self-mill midrange deck where I would gain value with escape creatures. I was missing some ramp and early removal and aggro decks beat me. Then I tried a UR tokens/tempo deck which also went 5-3. The highlights were Young Pyro and Saheeli along...

I'm trying my hands at a 1 vs 1 cube instead of a multiplayer cube and one of the appeals for me is creating distinct aggro decks that can be more than just 1 mana 2/1s. I am not reinventing the wheel, but just as with my Selesnya post, this is more of a thought organizing process than anything...

Just here to dump some thoughts so I can organize them. So I thinking about a different take on white, I realized that white has a lot of combos who's pieces are actually perfectly viable on their own. Moreover, green complements white really well with additional pieces and versatile tutors...
