For the record, Accorder Paladin feels like it's almost there for me. The effect is really good in aggressive deck, as well as the power, but dying to, say, Darkblast (read: all removal) is annoying. I can imagine the Crop-Captain plays well, and I do agree it's a nice signpost.

Accorder Paladin - {1} + {r} = +0/+1?

It's okay, he's an Apprentice Necromancer Badum tish!

Deathreap Ritual It's easy to trigger this, potentially on your turn and your opponent's. You turn their removal and your removal into card draw, trading in combat becomes less attractive. There's so much this innocious looking card does. The Gitrog Monster Come on, how is this not in...

I've cubed Darkblast in the past, but my current one mana removal spells are Dead Weight and Fatal Push. The percentage of one toughness creatures in my cube is quite a bit lower though, and there's less ways to abuse all those cards going to the yard as well. So Darkblast never really panned...

I pulled Embalm when I added Eternalize for consistency, but yeah, both mechanics play great.

According to CT, 66/360 cards in his cube have a toughness of 1, 6 of which don't usually enter the battlefield with 1 toughness (e.g. Rakdos Cackler), one can't be targeted (Lumberknot), and two will often die without help from you (Bone Shredder and Fleshbag Marauder. 12 more can grow out of...

Thanks for making me feel young ;)

Bookmarked!

Sweet! I pegged the card for my section when it was released, but wasn't sure it was good enough. Will see if I can room for it after all :)

My cube has only five color pairs, there's a bunch of cards in the monocolored sections with their role in a given color pair in mind.

I'm not sure I get what you mean. Like, cards like Patagia Viper ?

Ahadabans is spot on.

Agree, this was a blast!

King Brago is definitely in my top 5 favorite Azorius cards.

I used to think Azorius was bland too, but Commander 2017 has added two cards that actually make me excited for the color. Not that Azorius is a thing in my cube, but hey, I would snap include these two if it was! fractured identity Taigam, ojutai master

I can vouch for Pyre Hound. I recently included it, and it's a super rewarding build around card. Smashing in for six feels really nice :) With some setup it's also great with Wildfire effect. It only requires one other spell to survive the sweeper! Another one I like is... Quicksmith Rebel...

Shit, I'm missing out! Will try to find a spot for Gelectrode in my relatively huge Izzet section.

It's actually a close fight. It depends on what you want to support. Red aggro will be much happier with the archer dealing some incidental damage off burn spells, whereas a true spells matter deck will gleefully pick up the Guttersnipe.
