awesome suggestions, thank you, i've build most of these into my file
Graveyard Cube

Does anybody have good combos with this bad dude, that don't go infinite? Can't find any that are not OP as hell.
Here is my perpetual cry of don't force it to combo, just go for value. If you're chucking loads of things in the graveyard anyway some of it will have activated abilities, and then this guy gets better just for existing. Don't feel you have to force combo to happen, combo is just synergy on mad steroids.

Someone asked for sac outlets?
I think all of these are playable, except maybe the Causes, but white sac outlets are a pretty shallow pool to draw from.
Bonus Graveyard Synergy!

Wow so many suggestions, thank you! Still don't know how big my cube will be. I definitely don't want to go higher than 450, that's for sure.
I decided to focus on having some more 2 offs and a birthing pod archtype, including 3 copies of said card:
There will be a human theme in white colors, including some hate for yards and Zombies.
While i am planning to include about 3-4 looting creatures (most likely Enclaved Cryptologist, Merfolk Looter and the flipping Civilized Scholar) and other discard outlets, i really like circular logic as a way to provide tempo. Might even be a 3-off.
Black has a zombie theme going on, that fodders around for the sacrifice archtype:
Red gets a sort of flashback, spell value theme:

Green gets his well deserved Pod along with a two off Mongrel and 2 Vengevines:
You're missing the retrace spells Raven's Crime, Flame Jab, Oona's Grace, Savage Conception. I've added in graveyard themes to a couple of my cubes and these are super huge plus they tie into Burning Vengeance and Young Pyromancer.
you're right, i should put all of that cycle in.
thanks for those jason, but i already had them in my cubetutor list.

Does anyone know a flexible card that's both graveyard hate AND removal?

Like sever the bloodline? I think in this cube it probably gets the nod over the newer gild
I don't think there's anything that says "choose one: terminate or relic of progenitus" IIRC
That white flash gargoyle dude (can't remember the name) is sometimes removal + GY hate.

he's one of my 2-offs in the cube
i looked over the existing charms and found two: Jund and Naya Charm. the Problem is, that i don't like to have 3 colored cards while i don't have that much fixing.Like sever the bloodline? I think in this cube it probably gets the nod over the newer gild

I mean I like it, but If shatter is marginal, and tormod's crypt is marginal, and you never cast the 3rd mode....
I could have used the third mode against Dougggggg on Sunday...

Uh, yeah, sorry for stating the obvious again. I don't really click on CubeTutor links before posting.

I think we can agree that's a bit of a fringe case
I'm taking kikki out anyways. Even if it's not too good, it's not something I agree with.
In my opinion, this is the best card in EDH. The amount of times I've killed someone because they made Graham's Number of creatures and also went to Graham's Number of life, or exiled some dude's graveyard, it's great. Eventually though I realised I just didn't like EDH.
Do you have that Zombie Tree from Innistrad?
