The fact that the rats aren't blockers is a huge step towards making it less frustrating to face down compared to Grave Titan, since villain isn't generating two potential blockers every time they sneeze. It also helps that the Rat Pump is specifically designed to seal the deal when it's obvious...

Furyblade Vampire Magmatic Channeler Ravenous Bloodseeker?

I mean, this is "eh, Vintage could have better mana" blacksmithy we're talking about... ;p

Look, I only have stupid ideas. I don't have much to post about otherwise.

An absolutely stupid idea I just had, that I'm still thinking of the ramifications of: Instead of "sacrifice [blank]" being "put [blank] into the graveyard", make it "donate [blank] to villain".

Alternatively, something like... Kayla's Commander - {1}{W}{W} Artifact Creature - Construct When ~ enters the battlefield, choose one. Choose two instead if it was evoked. Put a +1/+1 counter on target creature you control. It gets double strike until end of turn. Search your library for a...

Ugh, my brain was doing a thing where I skipped over the word "non-land" - it does that sometimes.

I think your musings from June 29th (where you were considering focusing on container passing) might be something to test, instead of essentially scrapping a good portion of your design. It even makes intuitive sense - instead of just tossing feathers and frogs and stuff at people, you're...

I think it's a neat idea, though I'm probably the wrong person to give it a try (I'm a bit art-blind).

Turns out that a card that basically boils down to a 4/4 haste-y flyer with fire-breathing for {1}{R}{R} is pretty darn good. Who knew? (I didn't! I basically brushed over Goddric). ... Come to think of it... Celebration is awfully easy to trigger, huh? I think I'm going to have to take...

I think it's disqualified by not costing {1}{G} or {2}{G}... though Green does tend to have the biggest members of cycles..

I think my favorite O-Ring to combo with it is Touch the Spirit Realm for that sweet, sweet Channel effect. Though the nastiest O-Ring has to be Parallax Wave... @ravnic I think it depends a lot on both color pip density and the average mana cost of your cube. To test, I grabbed a random pack...

Seek the Beast is effectively just Expressive Iteration, except that an over-eager Quirian Dryad fan windmill-slams a copy on top of your library just as you cast it.

If I was going to replace one of those cards, it'd probably be Invoke the Winds? Unless you're in the business of encouraging really heavy color investment, Welcome to the Fold will probably see more play. The instant speed is something to keep an eye on, though.

I kinda prefer this little guy, if only because it feels way cleaner: Misthollow Griffin

I look at Call Forth The Tempest and my first thought is "Mississippi River will love that thing".

There are also a few Spellbombs to consider: Aether Spellbomb Pyrite Spellbomb And some other sweet options: Touch the Spirit Realm Nimble Obstructionist Mirrorshell Crab Twinshot Sniper Colossal Sky-Turtle

It's also going to play nicely with stuff like Mulch (no duh) and Cultivate. Or, my favorite... Rites of Spring. I'm just glad that Nantuko Cultivator has a buddy now. :p ... I like this. I like this a lot. Gumdrop Poisoner - {2}{B} Creature - Human Warlock When ~ enters the battlefield...

I mean, Meriadoc would still make you a Food even if you attacked with it + some random other creature. Trufflesnout effectively has Exalted - create a Food.

Bear in mind that the Trufflesnout only makes a Food if it attacks alone.
