Well, reading my own post again, I think 50 cycles of duals would actually be a bit too much :P That would add up to 500 of 360 cards be mana fixing!

I've written a very long post while being on the road only to see now some aspects have at least partially be covered, but I'll post it anyway. Still think some points might help our discussion: Cube is a really complex topic where so many factors have to be considered. That makes it dificult...

I'd really love to add cycling lands to the blb, but I think that would break Drake Haven in my specific environment. Maybe even Glint-Horn Buccaneer.

I'd make the Den produce {B}{G}, even in your cube. Feels weird otherwise. But I like those alot.

Yup, you would need to be at a really low power level. Like, if Inquisitor's Ox is your payoff those might be a good fit as enablers.

Those are some sweet suggestions, thanks guys! Don't worry @Velrun this is not for my (main) cube, rather for another idea I might one day actually build :D

Okay guys, during WAR limited I had this incredibly fun deck where I combined my four or even five Charity Extractors with Huatli, the Sun's Heart. I love it when two mediocre cards combine to something really good. So, what I am looking for today is sweet limited combos, where two (retail...

I think you forgot someone! Threnody Singer This was my favorite version of this effect so far. The rock solid body (1/3 flying flash for 2 isn't horrible on it's own) in conjunction with the possibility to decrease a creatures power further than any of the other, make for a great card. I've...

I'm always looking for combat tricks that aren't dead cards against control or when you don't have a board presence. And this guy has really impressed me in MID limited. Nebelgast Intruder Not sure what to cut, but that card is much sweeter than I originally thought.

Yeah, that guy was or is a hero for this niche community. I hope he'll do well. I've started with magiccards.info and cubetutor, now things are different.

I agree with most of what you've said here, indeed, but I think I have to clarify something as it seems like you might've misunderstood me to some degree. I am a huge fan of good and plentiful fixing, and I'd wish that every limited set at least would have a 10-card cycle of gate equivalents...

I'd argue it basically is a 2-drop. You pay the 1U once, then you get a looter. But it can start looting on turn two, which can be huge.

I am planning to increase the number of graveyard hate cards. Stone Cloaker Scrabbling Claws Cranial Archive Cloaker should be a nice fit within the cube anyway. Scrabbling Claws is just a strong sideboard tool and the Archive could also be used for a really stupid and grindy self mill deck...

Enclave Cryptologist Well, technically it costs one mana, and technically it doesn't cost mana to loot.

I run two cards that can reanimate in mono black, but more for value, not as a supported strategie. Also with a format with something closer to 2.0 colors on average, getting a basic land matters less. @Velrun And Krosan Tusker is the real deal, but I already run it. I wouldn't cut it for...

Rise of Ants Orchard Strider I think I like Rise slightly more, but I don't like adding more stuff to green ramp that doesn't work with Genesis Wave. Is that a good reason to not switch?

But having 5 premier sets is a one time thing, next year there will be 4 only, like forever. So I'll just enjoy the intensive innistrad months.

When will it start?

Eh, the second ability just seems so useless. I wish it would do anything else basically, like giving a creature menace for a turn or gain you 3 life or something.

I can only repeat once again how important it is in my opinion that within an environment commiting to a additional color has to mean something. It makes deckbuidling more challenging, gives (a lot) more cards a chance to be desireable for drafters and gives you a reward for sticking with one or...
