This looks cute. Damn it, WotC, I'm running out of space in the Capitalism Cube for sweet Treasure cards.

I feel like, if you're looking at a gold class that encourages a spell deck... Sorcerer Class --- If you're looking for an Azorius card that encourages spell decks, why not Noyan Dar, Roil Shaper? Play a control-y game until you can drop Noyan, then jank 'em out with a flood of 3/3 lands.

I honestly think that Harmonic Prodigy/Rage Forger/Sage of Fables and a bunch of incidental Shamans/Wizards in {R}{U}{G} and {R/G}/{G/U} +1/+1 counter themes is probably the best approach?

It might be too color-intensive, but... Ghired, Conclave Exile It's basically a Grave Titan on crack by that point. ... I feel like Harmonic Prodigy runs into the standard "tribal in Cube" issue, where you have to make sure that you actually have a high enough density of Shamans and Wizards...

Yeah, I think Rage Forger is legally required to be in any cube that wants to use Harmonic Prodigy. They just work too well together, and Rage Forger is already a solid card if your cube already has +1/+1 counter shenanigans. Most of the Wizards that look interesting with the Prodigy are...

I agree, but I feel like they did do a slightly better job of giving the Exploit cards more reasonable bodies this time around: Overcharged Amalgam Graf Reaver Fell Stinger I could live with casting any of these creatures just for their stats

This could be an interesting card for those of you that have a focus on spell velocity in your cubes — they go fast, you get wolves. It reminds me of this thing: Wolfcaller's Howl Except easier to trigger outside of EDH. EDIT: Odric (and the tiny number of non-Odric cards that feel the need...

I think that's the second or third card in this set where I've gone "oh, hey, a reprint with cool new art" and didn't double-check. EDIT: Crawling Infestation is way weaker than Crawling Sensation — it can only trigger once on your turn, while Crawling Sensation can trigger once each turn.

I'm surprised that this isn't a centaur. EDIT: I'm intrigued...

Um... Brad? I hope you aren't going to put Midnight Bloom in a cube with fetchlands in it. Because right now it can ramp out 3 (potentially untapped) lands on T2 in conjunction with fetchlands.

Druidic Satchel templates things in a more compact manner — "if it's a [type] card" instead of "if a [type] card is milled this way".

I'm surprised that they didn't use something like... Druidic Satchel

Sure. Why not. It's going to be a house in Limited, especially since it looks like "toughness matters" is a subtheme.

This is an interesting one. You can use it to ramp out to a 6-drop on T4, or just get a nice little pump.

This is an absurdly good Clone variant. Compare it to Vizier of Many Faces.

Note that I said less obnoxious. Also... wow, I thought Thirst for Discovery was a reprint. It's actually just a strictly better Compulsive Research. Huh.

I think Cemetery Prowler having Vigilance is less obnoxious than Brimaz having Vigilance because the Prowler doesn't sneakily add an extra power on every attack and block.

Dumb question, but... given what we've seen so far, how do you think it'd play better if you rewrote some designs using Clues to use Blood instead? Part of me wants to redesign the Capitalism Cube with more custom cards, and having the artifact tokens be Blood and Treasure sounds awfully...

Oops, sorry, I forget that people can't read Spanish.

That's on me for not double checking card names...
