This is such a noted gap in the magic card pool I started making my own

This is so annoying. I've tried to make Leonin Lightscribe work, but it can be tough to find enough proactive cards to cast on curve.
These two adventure modes are actually really decent at supporting that theme, but I don't have a ton of others to suggest.
I don't currently run these due to concerns of cards getting mixed up, but I'm interested in seeing:
Cards that give you control of your opponent's stuff, such as
It's not for a theme or anything, but I've been skipping these cards for quite a while and I'm curious which good ones I've missed.

I also cut these effects for the same reason, but back when I still ran them, this one was my favorite!I don't currently run these due to concerns of cards getting mixed up, but I'm interested in seeing:

Gonti, Lord of Luxury is a fan favorite in my cube, I really like the tension it creates with the fact that the card stays face down for your opponent until it's cast, really adds a unique texture to a game. Claim the Firstborn is also fun, cool way to get a blocker out of the way and force through damage as an aggressive deck.
If you're looking for really busted stuff Thieving Skydiver is absurd, I had to cut it from my artifact cube because it was basically always just a 3 for 1. Could be more reasonable in an environment where artifacts are a sub theme.

Gonti definitely was a close second for me, very cool steal card (for the person casting it)!
Potential to “draw” 3 for 3 mana. Fill your GY or give you sacrifice fodder/ramp. Maybe more middle-high than low-middle though.
It doesn’t take many spells to make this worth it. Power level depends on your spell velocity slots.
Another funky spells matter card. I love that this could have wildly different outcomes from deck to deck. It’s powerful but fragile and requires setup.
A cool discard payoff. Doesn’t exactly fit your description because it can fight something, but a cool build around.
Edit:
I know you like landfall, how about Nahiri’s Lithoforming?

Have you considered Burning Prophet over Heartfire Immolator? The repeatable scry is nice smoothing that can help non-aggro red decks do their thing over the long game. And it's an interesting size that makes it work as a good blocker but also a relevant attacker with the trigger.
I think that’s a great choice!
I have considered the Prophet, but I decided against it for a very subjective reason: I loathe the artwork. It looks weird and also like the wrong kind of digital. Not sure if there is an artwork I like less in the whole of mtg.
Fair enough! For somebody who wants a cube to look and feel a certain way, there are quite a few ways for WotC to screw up a card, and bad artwork is right up there.
I'm looking for two cards.
- A replacement for Light up the Stage to avoid the Spectacle text.
- A token maker to replace Pest Infestation, which is busted. Awaken the woods seems bad?

Skibidi MonkeyI have this insider tip for you
Working on small value reanimator.
Looking for a few cards:
1mv creature cards that work well with Abiding Grace other than Martyr of Sands.
Good cards that return creature cards from yard to hand. Hoping to get additional value out of low drops this way.
Unearth targets that are specifically cool with Unearth effects, such as Triarch Praetorian or Eternal Witness. Something more interesting than "it's a good 3 drop."
