Yeah, but also, a big part of playing ramp is making it so your opponents have to exhaust some of their removal before you drop your bigger dudes. I think Tracker is the right kind of "good stuff" here.

Only a matter of time until I build an incestuous Vehicle - Inspired - Clue - Metalcraft cube.

Am I stupid? What is the point of being able to tap any number of creatures? Flavor?

Yeah, I considered it, but for that type of slot I liked Evolutionary Leap and Birthing Pod better. I know why the "nontoken" is there on Mysteries, but it makes me like Leap a lot more.

Love Tracker. So many synergies, solid power level, rewards tight sequencing and resource allocation. I can see it being too powerful for some cubes, but if that's not the case for yours, I think it's a really fun card. Don't really see it ever leaving either of my cubes.

Oh, I thought Soul of Ravnica was a 5cmc activation. Should I take it out of E Domain?

I've thought about it, but it doesn't seem super necessary. Pod seems more fun, and I don't really have room for both. To be honest, I think there's a ton of ramp, so I'm fairly surprised you didn't see any. When I draft it I feel like it's just about putting together the right proportions of...

True or false, this cube needs a Greater Gargadon.

Yeah, what I'm finding is that these ramp decks often have pretty interesting sequencing decisions, and taking a suboptimal line can really snowball. From playtesting, it really feels like aggro, ramp, midrange and control all are viable, and each seems really powerful with a coherently...

The solitaire turn counter on MTGO is a little off, but this is Turn 5 off a Vinelasher -> Khalni Heart -> See the Unwritten double fetch opener. I only hit Predator and Titania off the See the Unwritten.

Sometimes you just want to see how hard you can go off with Xenagos.

Just checking ramp's viability....

Re: Academy Rector, yeah, it's a bit of a value-upon-death guy, something that wants to be sacrificed. There are plenty of enchantment-based removal spells (Detention Sphere, Stab Wound, Song of the Dryads, Parallax Wave), then "deep end" stuff like Maelstrom Nexus and Chromanticore, or even a...

Necroskitter looks interesting, anybody have experience with it?

What would your proposed Izzet section be?

I think it's a nice to have, but it's a little narrow for me to be doubling up on. The mana never tripped me up, aside from one really bad sequencing error I made. With Ancient Stirrings, Nylea's Presence (which is really the perfect card for this cube), Smokebraider and Pentad Prism...

I believe it was Pentad Prism -> Horde of Notions. It's a pretty functional (and sometimes explosive) deck though, all the creatures are Elemantals and there are some really nice synergies between some of the cards (e.g. evoke with Parallax Wave in play).

Turn 3, swing for 7 flying with on board countermagic ready.

lol, can't muster more certainty than that saf?
