So I got a list up (see opening post) and I did 3 drafts. I ended up with www.cubetutor.com/cubedeck/1093112[/url]"] Zeroes 1 Zuran Orb Ones 1 Faithless Looting 1 Greater Gargadon 1 Llanowar Elves Twos 1 Life from the Loam 1 Mind Stone 1 Mind Stone 1 Voice of Resurgence Threes 1 Beast Within...

How much is too much? So I have ramp cards in Temur. I have a sacrifice theme in Mardu. I want to add this package to green: Evolutionary LeapFecundityAwakening ZonePattern of RebirthProtean Hulk Awakening Zone is the perfect tie between tokens and ramp. Leap and Fecundity go well together and...

So, continuing just dumping my thoughts here, since typing out all the different archetypes has made a few things clearer to me: - I'm struggling to make blue control decks. - My Orzhov decks are all over the place. I think I need to make some decklists to see how it looks (there is clearly a...

I'm just posting my thoughts as it helps me keep track of things. - I notice I have the payoffs for a RW reanimator deck, but I'm a little light on the set up cards. In red I have Faithless LootingFaithless LootingMagus of the WheelDaretti, Scrap Savant In white, I have...nothing. This means...

First attempt at cube list is here! I exclusively play multiplayer FFA games of 3-4 players. Lately, I'm getting bored of silly overpowered finishers that take no effort to win the game (for example a player won with a Sepulchral Primordial that reanimated a Restoration Angel). My players seem...

I wholeheartedly agree with the point several of you are making- narrow archetype enabling cards are good, but you cannot have too many of them without the draft feeling on rails and limiting the creativity of your drafters. To that end, I’m trying dbs’ artifact approach where a few spicy cards...

First of all, many thanks for taking the time to read, analyse and answer my post. Much appreciated. I see what you are saying about supporting all 10 shards/wedges. My reasoning was that we noticed that during all of our drafts we end up with easily 30 playable cards, so having some narrow...

I'm in the process of powering down my cube and would appreciate some suggestions in regards to archetypes. I'm looking to build a cube with more synergies and decision making than before and I figured that fleshing out what each shard/wedge/guild/color is trying to do would help greatly. I...

Burning-Tree Emissary Manamorphose Empty the Warrens Here you have spells matter, explosive aggro draws and tokens. What I like is that 2 of the cards are hybrid meaning they slot into more decks which seems important for a small cube. However, you have to try and find something that makes it...

Is Golgari Grave-Troll something that can help pull off that Sultai theme you want Sigh? Meshes well with +1/+1 counters too. It is quite powerful, but situational.

Regarding Tireless Tracker : Thoughts on shipping Kitchen Finks over to the green section and replacing them with a white value engine (like Bygone Bishop)? That way you can even out the CA over different colors and keep those sweet sweet clues!

I decided to try a ramp deck to see what would happen. So I P1P1 a Voyaging Satyr and followed it up with a Frantic Search thinking I would abuse bouncelands! Turns out I only saw a few on color so only have 2 and a Fertile Ground. That is only due to variance and I'm sure with only 3 players...

Here is a control deck I tried to put together. I think it came out pretty decently as I have early game interaction, card draw, life gain and some good win conditions. I'm really low on black fixing, but I'm a sucker for Tasigur :P I didn't look at the list at all before the draft, but there...

I enjoyed your thoughts on the new set and find I agree with most of what you say. One thing I feel important to point out is that Harsh Mentor is one-sided! Makes it a sweet red 2 drop in my book.

I agree that Wargear is brutal Chris. However, since the goal of this cube is to go big, it seems like a nice fit! Cutting 2 cards from your blue section is real tough. If it were my cube I would probably cut Crystal Shard just because it seems slow in your kind of environment (could be wrong...

I like most of these includes, but taking out the Grafted Wargear baffles me. It's been one of the stronger equipments for me, even at high power. The fact you can curve out 1 drop, 2 drop, Wargear and swing puts real pressure on the opponent. It also fits well in token decks that can use extra...

It was more of a "I want to play more efficient creatures" kind of reaction. Not sure what I can do in that case except remove the GRBS that was previously there and try to maintain some synergies as much as possible. I'm guessing you are familiar with this with your high powered cube. Are you...

Blue is OP because of the digging and card advantage. It is so much better than the rest that it's almost always correct to splash/play blue for that card advantage. This stifles the amount of viable decks as a whole which I wanted to avoid. You are right on here. With more drafts under their...

I'm liking these changes! I think that I would love to have both Mystic Snake and Shardless Agent. Any thoughts of ditching Kiora's Follower for one? Follower is good with Utopia Sprawl and Birthing Pod and some other cards, but most of the time, it's a fragile 2 color accelerator. For the...

So we had our first draft with my updated cube and we had fun! The draft went the way I was expecting (all 3 of us splashing/playing blue). I had an URb spells deck featuring some good fliers and a token subtheme. One of the guys had a UWr beatdown deck with a spells matter subtheme. The last...
