This is a good point and I'm not opposed to alternatives. For example, I regularly consider adding Lotus Petal to the cube to bolster the combo decks. In the right circumstances, an aggro deck could play it as an acceleration piece but it would be far from automatic and more balanced than Chrome...

Clocknapper (beginning phase)

I get what you are saying, but I actually don't mind that. I like my cube decks messy, where you have to branch out because you didn't draft the perfect deck. In the context of this card, maybe you have to branch out to an artifact deck and build a Scrap Trawler engine. Maybe you need to lean...

It's definitely slow, but I am trying out in my mid powered cube as well and I am excited to have another spell velocity payoff (that isn't as strong as Monastery Mentor). This is my 4th spell velocity card in White and I am excited with the spread of payoffs and the different speeds they offer...

At 384 (3 packs of 16), I run Fetch Fetch Shock Shock Surveil Very happy with both the density and the quality of the fixing. I aim for 2.5 color decks because I want players to be able to branch out and build the coolest engines possible. Double shocks + tapped surveils limit how greedy you...

Contagion engine

I think you got most of them tbh. Here are some extras that you might enjoy Engineered Explosives Since the card probably goes into more midrange decks, having a wrath at your disposal fits the gameplan against aggro. Scrabbling Claws If you have a toolbox, you need tools! This is...

I haven't been able to draft much these days and saw that the Arena cube was up, so decided to install Arena again and try some drafts with newer cards I could have missed. Another thing I was on the lookout for was aggressive decks snowballing hard (thus invalidating synergistic decks in my...

Scournful Egotist (Morphed)

I’m with Chris regarding your choices. Another option that you’ve probably already dismissed because of energy Chthonian Nightmare It’s pretty fair but strong and has built in restrictions that can be worked around. Is a sacrifice outlet and a repetitive noncreature cast. Scavenger’s Talent...

I am mostly focused on my lower powered cube right now so I'll be posting more in depth about that one. Really like the cards in the set, even though the 3 color cards are a miss for me as I don't want to commit to narrow cards (in terms of deck inclusion). Include Rally the Monastery Aligned...

Feels quite pushed! Hasty 4/4, double ETBs and wrath protection is nice.

Not going into my main cube, but this is pretty neat. Grab Bloodghast, Vengevine and Wonder for an aggressive pile. Or Dread Return, Golgari Grave-Troll and Laboratory Maniac for a combo finish. Raven’s Crime, Life from the Loam and Deep Analysis for some grindy value and so on. Fun puzzle to...

Brain fart on my end, didn’t account for the fact you aren’t casting from hand! Proceed. (Still think the card is fair for mid power).

Fair, I was thinking of the retrace ability, so second and subsequent casts. The first cast is a worse Divination though, nothing crazy.

I don’t know about being too good. It’s a 3 mana Tormenting Voice where you have to discard a land. It obviously has the upside of being cast multiple times and discarded for value but 3 mana is fair.

Yes! Skeletons matters! I actually had this in an earlier version with more enchantment support. However, looking at it again, Descend is surprisingly open ended and a 3/2 haste for 3 is a reasonable floor even absent the enchantment theme. 3 drops are crowded though, what to cut?
