I've been running through a couple tedious tasks to tweak the balance of colors (made it through green, red, and white so far). This included counting the number of p1p1 cards for each color, and adjusting to even the playing field. I also went through and counted resources available for each...

Probably worth putting in your cube thread at this point, but here's a few cards I've been very happy with. Stoneforge Mystic Actually pretty fair with a curated equipment suite. Porcelain Legionnaire Cranial Plating Tidehollow Sculler Blasting Station Balancing artifact and...

Shu Yun, the Silent Tempest Would pair well with your aura theme. Does it need to be a guild slot? Myth Realized

Silas Renn, Seeker Adept or Sphinx Summoner? Not a lot of options....Contraband Kingpin is fine, but not particularly exciting. What's your artifact package look like now? Would this be for your casual cube? I ask, because I don't see any support for the archetype at the moment in your list...

The potential for neat interactions is definitely there. I just don't think Plunderers is enticing enough for the mana investment. Those three cards you listed are more self-sufficient, mana-efficient, and have better payoffs. Next to those, Plunderers looks significantly lower in power...which...

A five mana 5/5 or 6/6 isn’t exactly degenerate in low powered settings, and this doesn’t have any evasion. Plunderers is either a highly situational 5/5 or a 5/5 for 7UUUBBB. The activated ability is super mana intensive and not exactly the most relevant effect in the late game. Looks pretty...

Other cards that might lend some crossover appeal into other colors: Noxious Revival Not Forgotten Banishing Stroke Terminus

Similar, but doesn't need to connect: Explorer's Scope Another good saboteur equipment: Mask of Memory

I support hellbent, and I’m a fan of scroll...there’s certainly a bit of nostalgia to it. It’s pretty unique in its function, and I appreciate what it adds to the archetype. I agree with Jason about being a pseudo vortex. It’s a little slow so it winds up being pretty fair in my experience. Not...

Azorius is not the most enticing color combo in my cube at the moment. If anyone has an atypical take on blink decks, I'm all ears. Finding a middle ground between: Flickerwisp Restoration Angel Vendilion Clique Venser, Shaper Savant (All of which would be the arguably the strongest 3&4cmc...

I like replenish. I’d held off on it, because I never felt like I had an adequate density of targets. One day, I realized that I could expect it to perform like a Breath of Life for enchantments instead of a Living Death and that unlocked a lot of potential for archetypes like Oath of Druids and...

Sorry, for sandbagging posts lately...just a lot of things running through my head, and I'm feeding off the energy of our last draft. Pinning this here to think about more.... Ethersworn Canonist There's just so many good hatebears for this cube. It's hard to curate. Canonist has become...

Summonings is a sizable mana investment for something doesn't immediately impact the board. Cards like Force of Will and Gush would help that a little, but it's always felt more like an EDH card than a cube card to me.

I assume your casual cube is your main cube? That's what I drafted... p1p1: Haunted Plate Mail (need to see where this is going) p1p2: Fact or Fiction p1p3: Psychatog (okay, that's where it's going) Drafted Loners....was a little short on playables, but I think it came out okay...

In the past, I've been more mindful of newcomers by asking whether they wanted to see the list prior, or if they'd rather be surprised by the format. It slipped my mind this time, but I think it's good practice. Cubetutor is so useful in that regard.
