Mycoloth was good enough there, but I had it taken out to reduce the number of board-clogging elements.

Let me say that, even in my cube specifically designed around low power token sacrificing (Eldrazi Domain), these guys were kind of turds. I wanted to believe, but...

Yeah, Breaking Point seems really bad. Do or Die is a cool card though. It's like, an edict at worst if they have at least two creatures? But does nothing if they have only one? Interesting design.

I forgot the context of this thread and thought you guys were debating about Nightmare.

That's not really a statement Eric. The expected number of drafters in a given color is 3.5 if players on average are running 2.1875 colors in their decks.

Strange that Gravecrawler's price hasn't dropped post-rotation. Trunkers to blame?

If I see Prime Time I force golgari big stuff and 3 - 0 without fail. Maybe I don't empathize.

Yeah, I'm not so keen on Gifts Ungiven. Capsize is kind of a fun card in that tension zone between three and six mana where sometimes people cast it because they really need a bounce spell. I've even seen it get cast without buyback when the player was at 6 mana because they needed to do two...

Yes, I agree with all of these, but still imagine that in a large percentage of use cases the two cards produce functionally similar game states. I've only actually cast the card a few times and every time it was just a straight up Armageddon that locked up mana while the attacking player closed...

Good answers!

Why do you think I wrote the Poison Principle?

Sudden Demise looks pretty baller for the Eldrazi Domain cube. Colors, x-spells, dodges spawn tokens, scalable. What's not to love?

Geez, I really don't know, I clicked on this thread expecting that you were going to be raving that this card is all that and a bag of chips.

I uh... *averts gaze* started in Scars of Mirrodin

Kids these days. "One-sided wrath"? The only term I'll accept is Plague Wind. :)

But a sack of nails at least has a chance of killing someone.

I don't know about in that deck, but I love love love Eldrazi Monument in both of my cubes. Such a unique card with many fun interactions.

Hmmm.... a lot of that list I don't agree with. There are a lot of inexpensive things that just never had a deck home, but I'll have to look through my list another time. Also almost none of those cards are in my cube so I find it hard to relate to the list. Swords have totally been in...

I once scarred a player away from cubing for life by going Plow Under, Regrowth, Plow Under.

Man, there have to be tons of cube cards that are great but never did jack in constructed. That could be an article. Somebody make a thread, let's brainstorm.
