The big difference is that you spent turn four casting a card with zero board impact making it more risky to pull off. Plus, an Eldrazi payoff for any color is sweet as I recall White being an issue there.

Maybe something like these as cheat for all colors. You spend 8 mana for an Eldrazi but split over 2 turns. Of course, it’s cheat, not reanimation. Quicksilver amulet Thran temporal gateway Belbe’s Portal Cryptic Gateway? To answer the question, 4 and 5 feels too low if you are running the...

I've been pretty happy with my self-mill and discard swaps so far. In this deck, Squee and Stinkweed Imp shine as value and acceleration respectively. Ones 1 Stinkweed Imp 1 Squee, Goblin Nabob 1 Lotus Petal 1 Scrabbling Claws 1 Chromatic Star 1 Currency Converter 1 Noxious Revival 1 Reanimate...

I'll add a few leave the battlefield cards Tameshi, Reality Architect Barrin, Tolarian Archmage Vengeful Rebel Hidden Herbalists Hidden Stockpile Renegade Rallier Also stuff like Windbrisk Heights and the generically good Surveil lands. And one of my favorite untappers Rude Awakening

Professor Zei, Anthropologist Does this count? Because it’s pretty great at repeated discard. Fear of missing out hasn’t been mentioned but isnup there in terms of power level.

I mean there isn't a right or wrong answer here. Personally, the first option with various rarities seems like a logistical nightmare, I would much rather have up to 4 copies of singleton break. This is my favorite option btw. Also potentially the toughest to implement because of how many...

I am all about these interactions. 1 mana for a cycling/discard trigger and a +1/+1 counter is pushed here, but not exaggerated IMO. My issue with counters is the lack of payoffs. Here you have Witness + Ozolith. Benthic Biomancer Seems like a slam dunk if you go that route. Monoskelion...

Here are a few I like Mystic Sanctuary A push towards slow grindy Blue heavy decks is something I think you wanted for your cube. This is pretty good at that. You don't have Bouncelands to abuse it, but you do have Cryptic Command up to you if that's unfair or cool. Shifting Woodlands...

We’ve been over this, but in a ramp format, I’d add bouncelands to the equation. You have landfall triggers and untap. You might need to add return to hand abilities like Tameshi and Barrin to get the most out of it.

Dreadhorde Arcanist Finale of promise Electrodominance Mizzix’s Mastery My favorite suspend cheat spells in Red. Not sure they are needed, but it is pretty spicy when your drafters put it together. Yahenni’s Expertise is good in Black for Living End if you care. I like Slice and Dice and Big...

Embrace the Unkown Not a big spell, but can still dump a bunch of mana into it and a repeated source of discard triggers. Rude Awakening You have bouncelands and this is a neat mana engine and/or finisher. Commit // Memory Maybe too much with Mastery? Good interaction though. Wheel of fate...

If you are going with Workshop (which is a cool build around!), I would want some big mana rocks to convert that artifact mana into something else. Everflowing Chalice Coalition Relic Relic of Sauron These would also fit with Upheaval and Wildfire. Definitely a good package to add if going...

If the cards can serve several roles, I think that is a net positive for the format tbh. Maybe the main Rx archetype is aggro, but sometimes things line up for a goblin Titan deck and that's really cool. Speaking of aggro Titan, how about these to entice you to mix both? Caustic Bronco Yuriko...

With eldrazi spawns/scions I think Three Tree City is neat even if Green uses them as well. It’s a feature of the format. If you can get other types in there too then multiples makes sense. For Ux, untapping permanents seems like an easy way to abuse the lands and artifacts, giving the color a...

Ravenous Robots This is putting me in a bind! I feel at a crossroads where I probably should pick between artifacts or instants/sorceries. Having both Young Pyromancer and the Robots seems like overkill because they each require a certain density of cheap spells to cast to maximize their...

Self-mill and discard overlap I've been thinking about my aggressive self-mill and discard archetypes and think they would benefit from more overlap. What I mean by that is cards like Basking Rootwalla are great for the discard archetype, but do nothing for self-mill. I would like more cards...

No cheating then, thanks for the clarification!

Agreed! Makes me think of Carnage Interpreter’s downside. This one can be blinked more easily and you can just sacrifice her before your upkeep. This looks great. Mutagen tokens seem better than Map tokens IMO because of complexity reasons. Having artifacts to sacrifice rather than putting the...

Have to agree. I’ve drafted some unique decks with this insect, but it’s a payoff for a subset of the artifact archetype. It comes together so rarely that it’s a dubious use of a guild slot. Kind of. I’ve drafted your cube a bunch of times where I see an early Replenish and try to draft around...

Forgot about a maybe in Twilight Diviner Which is a cool gy payoff! From small recursive threats to reanimator, there are some high highs with the card and a very respectable floor.
