"My Reaction When"
At least I think so. I could be complely wrong, like the grandmothers on FB who think LoL means "lots of love" not "laugh out loud" or "League of Legends."

Seriously though, regenerate: Surprisingly complicated. People get fucking graft no problem, but regenerate blows their fucking minds

Your reaction is RTFM?
People don't understand protection either. Even more reason not to run cards with that keyword.

I swear some of my drafters just glaze over Italicized text at this point.

It's odd, I've actually been continually surprised at how well my group does with new mechanics. I've taken a group of filthy casuals and just thrown the book at them. While I do get a "hey so how does Devotion work?" or somesuch question about once per draft, they're always like "oh! okay!" and it never comes up again.
I'm seeing instant recognition and acceptance of stuff that I fully expected people to balk at for being too complicated.
First time I sleeved up Standstill I wound up playing against it the player who drafted it, and one game went something like:
Me: 1-drop
Her: --
Me: 2-drop
Her: Standstill
...
My best guess is that she assumed it was "idiot-proof" like most newly-printed Magic cards (i.e. the new FTK variants are never going to kill themselves or your other creatures since they all say "may" or "an opponent controls" or both).

Anyway, Standstill reminded me of Landstill which reminded me of an actual Fight Club question

I run both Desert and Quicksand in my ULD and they both make decks. I take Desert more often, but there are a lot of 3/2 dudes running around these days so quicksand still probably has a purpose.
that was a thing in standard back when mono white weenie needed a way to attack past Malakir Bloodwitches!

I was absurdly impressed with how much play there is to Priest in a few Origins drafts, and I can only imagine it playing even better in Cube with sac outlets and recursion and blink. I've considered him but the art is a bit too "meh" and my 5s are stacked currently, but he's on the shortlist, and I'd rather draft him than Sidisi imho.

I've got Puppetteer clique instead of Sidisi.
I prefer priest. He will always put 2 bodies in play. If you need to tutor with sidisi you could be put in a position where you have to sac her.

Sidisi is awesome! Nothing stabilizes a (nonflying) board like a 4/6 deathtouch, and if you got a spare body lying around, your next play will be awesome as well!
