I think whether Fact or Fiction or Control Magic is better is fairly dependent on your opponent's deck. If they pressure you, I would guess Control Magic is the pick; if not, Fact or Fiction is probably going to be better. If they have one bomb that's hard to deal with, Control Magic shines...

Sure, it's not great against Silent Departure but not every player will have that card. I also don't think Fact or Fiction is necessarily that much better, as the format seemed like it could be fairly fast and having something that affects the board in such a huge way as Control Magic is...

Surely a higher power level doesn't make Control Magic that much worse, if at all. It's one of those cards that scales with its environment. Eg taking Serra Angel is really good, but taking Visara the Dreadful is insane. I'm guessing also that it's particularly good against the auras deck. I...

I just realised all three have a variation on this text and they all kind of suck.

I don't know, it seems kind of bad? I'm not sure how much value a one-shot Mindslaver has when the opponent gets another turn to mitigate the damage done. I guess it is still a 13/13 Flample with a reasonable protection ability for probably 8-10 mana, but honestly I'm not thrilled by it.

I meant technically I think you can cast it for as low as 5.

Alright, I'm in.

Horn of Greed Could this be part of some UG Taking Turns/Lands type deck? Fastbond, Oracle of Mul-Daya, Howling Mine effects, Time Warps? I saw some people talking about Taking Turns in one of the cube threads (Dom's?) and this came to mind. Also would it be insane to custom it as a...

I'm running Temples in the ULD but I think I'm going to move them to the main cube because they're always very highly picked, which kind of defeats the point of the ULD.

Didn't the old Dragonstorm list use them as well? Could be a way of allowing combo decks to generate mana for a mega-turn without using rituals.

If you're talking about Wake, I've had it in since my cube's inception and it has never come close to being cut. If you mean Mirari itself, well, I think there's good reason for that!

I've had Alchemist's Refuge in ULD forever. I've never seen it activated and I'm not sure I've ever even seen it picked.

I don't know whether it crosses the line from going deep to build around but I love me some Jeskai Ascendancy

I did a 3x Odyssey draft just this past weekend, and it was strange to play with but not in a bad way. Weird stuff like calculating how many lands you can sacrifice for essentially no value to enable threshold whilst still being able to cast spells. I really liked it.
