I love reading these reports as the decks showcased are always completely absurd. But absurd in a good way, not just a big ETB dude taking over or a turn 1 reanimator, but whole engines that combine with each other. Good job :D

I would probably have more 3's so you can restart some chains if needed. I had one of my players build a sweet pod deck last night where he even got it fairly late in the last pack. He just had a solid curve and it worked out well. I did try using a squadron pick for the Birthing Pod. The...

I was just thinking about that following yesterday's cube night on our end. We had a good time, but 2 decks had access to 1CC ramp and when deployed early the games were not really close. Granted I play multiplayer games where you can't really use a kill spell on a mana dork otherwise you end up...

Birthing PodCollected Company seem out of place. These are tough to build around. So either double up on one (maybe cutting the other), add support in other colors (like Prime Speaker Vannifar) or just cut them. Stronghold Assassin This guy seems pretty weak and slow compared to other...

I was revisiting some fun subthemes for my cube and I realized that I can probably support a mini zombie theme at little cost. I wanted to know what people thought of the following package: Payoffs CryptbreakerGravecrawlerGravecrawlerCemetery ReaperEternal SkylordGisa and Geralf GY zombies...

I would cut one of the sacrifice outlets (Flesh Carver, Yahenni, Undying Partisan and Phyrexian Ghoul) and one of the sacrifice payoffs (Xathrid Necromancer, Midnight Reaper and Liliana, Heretical Healer) since that is quite a bit of overlap. My personal choices would be Xathrid Necromancer...

That is a great point. I was actually looking at the card as a payoff for sacrifice decks, but I overlooked the token managing effect. Thanks!

So I finally got around to logging the decks into cubetutor from our cube draft back in September or something. We were 3 drafters Pat, Nico and myself. We drafted the whole cube with 9 packs of 15 cards. Pick one, burn 2 (so 5 cards per pack). Here is what we drafted: Pat (2 wins)...

Yeah Vizier seems a little out of place for me, but I'm a little too obsessed with maximizing Birthing Pod to be objective :P I'm considering cutting Lotus Cobra because of how easy and effortless it is to get a lot of mana from him in my cube. I really like the card and recommend it if you...

Thanks for such a detailed response. The lack of interactivity was my issue with those cards, but then you mentioned Rampant Growth effects and that made me realize I already run the following non-interactive ramp: Sakura-Tribe Elder, Harrow, Springbloom Druid. If I cut these for Wild...

I like checking out different cubes and yours is a fun one. One thing I was wondering is how have the ramp enchantments played out. What I mean is, does the fact that they are harder to interact with hinder game play? I am interested in running them because I love how they play with...

Right now my equipment package for SFM is Bloodforged Battle-AxeBonesplitterCranial PlatingLightning GreavesGrafted WargearHeirloom BladeBonehoardBatterskullEmbercleave I'm really happy with all of these, but I feel I am still short an equipment or two. I'm curious about a couple you guys...

On another note, I'm trying to spruce up my Simic section and Throne of Eldraine has given me some ideas to tie things up with older cards. I am a sucker for artifacts and getting green in on the action is a goal of mine. TrainmasterGT brought up the +1/+1 counters in his post and I believe I'm...

I've been thinking about lands lately. What is the smallest land matters package I can run that can still perform. I posted in this very thread before about the subject, but since then, I changed my mind on Cataclysm (GG if you are ahead and a long stalled out game if you are behind due to...

That is some sweet insight, thanks everybody. I will be testing out the Bishop, Bugler and Recruiter mainly because they allow me to get my card advantage without spending mana. Considering how starved white is for CA, having a third dude can't be that bad!

So I got to draft Erik's cube: www.cubetutor.com/cubedeck/1179436[/url]"] Ones 1 Birds of Paradise 1 Elves of Deep Shadow 1 Joraga Treespeaker Twos 1 Bloom Tender 1 Edge of Autumn 1 Looter il-Kor 1 Lotus Cobra 1 Scavenging Ooze 1 Sylvan Library Threes 1 Psychatog 1 Reclamation Sage 1...

Love the set. Some interesting designs that seem powerful, fun and can slot into different archetypes.

Oops, you missed ravnic's draft Erik, so I went ahead and drafted it :p https://cubecobra.com/cube/deck/5d8b98ae50a8152674babf5b Started with a Grizzly Fate and wanted to draft a GY token deck (if that is even supported in the cube). Followed by a Stinkweed Imp and a Deep Analysis to cement...

I want white to have a few card advantage spells and I'm having a tough time chose between the following. Mentor of the MeekBygone BishopRecruiter of the GuardMilitia Bugler I have room for 2 of the 4 and right now, I'm leaning towards Bishop and Bugler mainly because their bodies are way...

I would rather have a second Porcelain Legionnaire rather than a first Thopter. Skirge is good though!
