I already do all that stuff lol. It's just this lands/spells thing is bullshit. I only have 4 color pairs, so the fixing is pre-fixed. The curve is quite low/normal. I feel that your cube's curve should look similar to an expected deck's curve. That way, even your poorest drafters end up on...

I kind of suspected that filtering in each color, specifically at 1-2 cmc, is going to be the key. Unfortunately, WOTC doesn't legitimately print that. Your customs are somewhat confirming my suspicions. Do you feel like these make a big impact on your nongame frequency? Analyze would be a...

Speaking about being bummed mechanically, how do you guys prevent nongames? I have Temples and the black cube loves to loot, but I saw quite a few miserable faces last weekend as one or both players were disabled from playing and I'm kind of sick of having a bad night myself or watching...

Prevent damage and continually change stats is a headache. Even as a black cube, I'm not too hot on this. That said, I may need a few more knights if I go that route. Anyone care to convince me that I want this?

Garbage. Damn it. Now I'm hoping that even one of the black ones is passable. A few days ago, I thought I might get four... "Sound Intrusion" B Sorcery Target opponent reveals his or her hand. You may choose a nonland card from your opponent's hand. If you do, your opponent exiles that...

Yeah, he's gonna take his horse to the old town road...

Think I should just head straight to CC? I heard CT doesn't update very often and other irritating things.

Probably. Sounds like a stupid cube with a stupid owner. Is CT still the go-to site? Not one of the other ones I've seen around?

Opportunistic Dragon has a stupid name, but is otherwise pretty cool. It's a wild animal. Every wild animal takes every opportunity it can get or it will die. Just a nitpick, but the name should be focused on the kidnapping aspect more than the opportunity for a fucking dragon to overpower a 1/1...

Risk Factor Did anyone use this? Hit or miss?

True. I can see both CCCs so far having an impact on standard. They both doing something quite interesting. But cube is the only format that matters lol. Ya, but the decks that are gonna use it will get the only creature on the board that can win a combat and will be built to take advantage of...

Congrats to anyone who makes the blue variant of my black cube. Looks like we have a cycle of near-unplayables with CCC in the cost. That said, one of the two main other cube ideas I kick around is color-slanted as well and I could potentially utilize most of this cycle. But basically no one...

Ha! Beat you by a few minutes! Rushed over when I saw it so I'd be first in.

P/T=2/3 You already knew I'd be posting this. Devotion, sac outlet, generally useful. Easy add for me.

I ran UB aggro on Sunday. Decided to go all-in, full on aggro deck, 6 1 drops, Bazaar Trademage, full on beaters with some yard interaction. The deck won't really operate like that unless you picked up quite a few yard-freebies like Bloodghast and Prized Amalgam to really up your clock, but...

This is my mostly black cube, in shitty cell phone pic form cus I haven't made a CT link: https://imgur.com/a/mCfaGsS It's also possible your players need to learn to branch out. Those cards you listed vary wildly on power level.

This : Hostage Taker :: Flame Slash : FTK And you'll note that Flame Slash had to cost 1 mana to be good. This would have been decent if given a 2/3 body, probably. A bad Sin Collector, but I personally feel that Sin is a bit too quick for an ETB +1. I don't really like immediate value too...

I'm on mobile so it'll be quick but I have to post this guy This is so good for the black cube. The gentle yard removal is exactly what I've been looking for, as "exile all" is too harsh for my environment and there's relatively few cards that have a mild yard disruption on them. The UB decks...

I try to cycle through the types of decks I'll play so that I can see where they need help. I learned a lot about UB aggro and my cube's aggro in general tonight, for example. I'll also frequently go into the draft already intending to test Deck X because I anticipate it may either be a bit...

100% chance I'm pre-boarding on some glasses if Beeble were in my cube.
