Yesterday I inserted the artifact combo package into my cube and ran a few test drafts. I'm going to shelve the idea as it involves a significant restructuring of the cube including the removal of Storm...which ushers in a windfall of other changes when I really start looking at it....For now...

That makes sense, apologies if I seemed dismissive. Tutoring for a situationally good card with Mystical, then flashing it back with Torrential has been a tidy and attractive incentive for control here. So I value that a lot as it's been difficult to entice people to draft control. Looking at...

I think Mystical Tutor is completely fair, and I wouldn't personally care for a lower powered version. You also play Torrential Gearhulk, so Personal Tutor strikes me a unnecessarily unsynergystic.

Haven't tested Timetwister, but I'm not beyond it. I'm currently running Windfall and Wheel of Fortune. Time Spiral is always on my shortlist of cards to potentially bring back. I love that card.

Occultist is a thematically solid bro. Not great by any stretch of the imagination, but one of the better hardcast madness creatures available. I’d be running sin prodder if I wasn’t concerned about theme.

Currently my Azorius Control decks look more like this at the moment: Zeroes 1 Force of Will 1 Engineered Explosives 1 Mox Diamond 1 Zuran Orb Ones 1 Enlightened Tutor 1 Gitaxian Probe 1 Land Tax Twos 1 Hangarback Walker 1 Wall of Omens 1 Blessed Alliance 1 Remand 1 Scroll Rack Threes 1...

Thanks everyone for your thoughts and drafts. I'm feeling better about my cube than I have in a long time, tbh. I've identified a few things that really helped me get out of the rut I was in with my cube: 1) Increasing graveyard interaction: For the reason Grillo just stated, but also just...

Nailed those drafts, Dom. Happy to see someone draft such fleshed out versions of archetypes outside myself :D Not that I’m surprised because your cubes have inspired some decision making in my own, but I think sensibilities are somewhat akin to one another in general. Any comments you have...

Reshape is definitely a reasonable alternative....it just doesn't have the bin splashy artifact option like Transmute Artifact does.

Maybe Transmute Artifact....oh, wow. That's gotten expensive. I hope I still have one. :oops: The trips Blue on Whir is a little intimidating, but I like instant speed. Don't think I want to run Fabricate alongside Tinker. EDIT: Thinking about Whir some.... Pentad Prism With a couple...

You may not need all that many eggs if you are looping stuff with cards like Scrap Trawler and Myr Retriever. I need to see what the cost of inserting this package into my cube is...I'd need to cut at least 2 cards per color. Easy in blue if I cut storm. I could also take this opportunity to...

Perhaps. I played with it some in peasant...but I can't for the life of me recall how it panned out. The subgame probably isn't that interesting. You might occasionally trick someone on turn 3 by targeting yourself first before sending it across the table, baiting them on stripping your hand...

I like Engineered Explosives quite a bit. A great Trinket Mage target and easy to return with Scrap Trawler. The lower cmc of your creature suite, the better....it also gets better with a greater density of tokens. I think of it like a colorless Pyroclasm. Another colorless sweeper that's...

I actually think that could be an interesting option for my Madness Aggro decks. I've been looking for more incentives to draft the archetype in the face of the more seductive combo options in my cube. I've also considered: Chain of Smog in place of Collective Brutality. I like the subgame...

Thanks for drafting! I'm sticking to strictly singleton for now, but I do think I could use an extra couple cheap spells for the archetype if I decide to keep it in. I'm not yet convinced that Storm is the appropriate explosive combo deck for my environment. I don't really like the non-prowess...

I really like Hollow One....I'm enjoying: Wild Mongrel Become Immense Magus of the Wheel Wheel of Fortune Anger Hollow One

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Academy Rector already has a lot of interactions with black and green...I'd love to incorporate red some more. Academy Rector Goblin Bombardment Pattern of Rebirth Purphoros, God of the Forge Saproling Burst Protean Hulk BTW, I really resent how all of the...

Both of those decks look like a lot of fun. How is Purphoros? I’ve thought about adding it as a rector target.
