There's a lot of interesting archetypes here, but like @blacksmithy mentioned earlier you'll probably need to spend some time exploiting the intersections between them to avoid the on-rails experience. Like if affinity and dredge are going to be a thing in your cube, perhaps scavenge could a...

100%. I obviously love the new toys, and having design holes filled in my cube, but it's a lot. I don't feel like I get any time to settle into a list before a new host of amazing cards drop, and then I have to spend two+ weeks shuffling things around to see what and how things fit. It's a lot...

Come, stay awhile. It's beautiful this time of year ;)

Yeah, the only repeatable blink I have is Soulherder which commits you to 3c with Grief. In general, my blink and reanimation package sounds very toned down compared to yours. Apprentice Necromancer and Priest of Fell Rites are the fastest way to reanimate Grief in my cube, and are easy to...

It’s back!

What do we think about Grief at Medium to Medium-High power levels? It feels borderline. I’ve tried Thoughtseize, but it was a little too efficient. I’ve almost run Unmask at times, but it always felt a little underwhelming. It’s way more interesting than running Duress or Inquisition of Kozilek...

Agreed. Without breaking singleton, this problem also extends to a whole host of other mechanics. I gave up on defining an archetype by a mechanic a long time ago.

Omnath is really cool. I'm just a little gun shy of introducing explicit 3+ color cards. I appreciate the feedback. Lots for me to chew on. I was looking at Chromatic Lantern....which seems like a perfectly reasonable mana rock in my environment. I like that it slots easily into a mono-color...

Sinister Concoction + any of the sagas also helps

I'm more skeptical on Hard Evidence....it feels like a card most blue decks could use, but rarely want/need (at least my blue decks). I was really excited by it at first, but the more I thought about it, the less enthusiastic I became. For cheap blue defense, I think that I'd rather have a Fae...

Yeah, I don't think it would be much of a problem for my environment. It can get pretty fast, but it's not like it's consistently blistering. I'm sure I can make a couple substitutions to increase the variety in card type. I'm not married to any of the Boros guild cards at the moment: Lightning...

Oh yeah, Living Death and All Suns' Dawn are 5cmc sorceries, huh? lol....right in front of my damn face.

I definitely think this in particular could have legs here. Some good suggestions, thanks! I probably don't want to venture too far down the 3+ color road with this project...but I really like the idea conceptually and your application of it. One of my favorite aspects of your cube is the...

I wish kaleidoscorch<>firebolt was a simple switch out for me, but 2 mana on the front end really reduces its usefulness to my aggro decks

:D I've used the same avatar on forums for 15ish years. We are simply kindred spirits, ships passing in the night, brothers from other mothers, etc. We printed up t-shirts for our Club last Summer. I'm the treasurer, I get to spend the money while Sigh is busy making it.

I drafted this fun 5c Kenrith deck with @Alfonzo Bonzo 's new list the other day, and it's been kicking around in the back of my mind as the new converge cards have spoiled. Zeroes 1 Chamber Sentry Ones 1 Oust Twos 1 Charming Prince 1 Wall of Omens 1 Fire Prophecy 1 Journey to Nowhere 1...

Oh, I haven't figured it out at all. I'll probably slot in the Certains and half of the Less Certain Curious cards to begin with, and see where things are at...shuffle some in and some out. I just made that big update to my cube forgetting how juicy MH promised to be....I'm proceeding with...

I had a manic high as this set spoiled so apologies to everyone if that was obnoxious. I've come down from the mountain, and a lot of cards shifted down into the Curious Zone. Near Certain: Timeless Dragon Bone Shards Foundation Breaker Priest of Fell Rites Curious but Less Certain: Esper...

100%. I have 3 madness cards in my graveyard cube. There are many ways to exploit the discard mechanic that don't involve running a bunch of awkward stuff for your environment.

Colorless discard is always welcomed. Love the old school callback to Fodder Cannon and Skull Catapult
