If you keep deleting and re-uploading your entire cube list whenever you change three cards, the CubeTutor AI can't pick up on people's drafting habits, you know.

I like hellrider, I like pyromancer, I like probe, and I love cabal therapy (even if it doesn't work for me)

Porphy might be going too far. There's not much interacting with him. Remember when we cut eldrazi monument?

I know it's technically erratta, but the alpha Orcish Oriflamme cost {1}{R}

Lucre's Tezz white! from CubeTutor.com













Couple directions. You could take the artifact lands. Last draft I played with the idea of one pick giving you a colored artifact land + colorless one. Tezz player was happy.

Other idea is to go for the Post Control deck. Either way I think you cut at least Geist, possibly Daze as well.
 
I think crucible isn't at it's best here but I just love it if there are wastelands or tec edges in the field.
I also just really like having that in my deck if I A) Am going to be attacking mainly with colonades B) Want to top a lot.

Is this what your control decks look like?

By the way, I think double finks might be what your pod strategies needed man. I just worry about what deathrite and ooze supremacy does to your metagame, they do so much to incidentally reduce the power level of so many spells that it really feels like it's turning decent picks and solid decks into bunk or at least headache factories. Like some decks rely on their snapcasters and fact or fictions or profane commands to be halfway decent right? Is it super easy and incidental to remove a 1/2 or a scavenger ooze? (because it's super easy for them to fuck up a whole deck)

But really my experience isn't with your cube so maybe it's justified and I'm being a rube.

I've never actually seen one of those cards wreck a control player's Graveyard. I don't think it's an issue.
 
this is good. it's happened a lot for me in eric's environs but only rarely in like powered cube or whatever.

I wonder how useful Birds of Paradise is in a deck whose curve tops out at 3... Also, not running Horizon Canopy instead of a Forest is plain incorrect.
