Fwiw I think that is many of the good ones (and some of the incredibly mid ones!).
There are some that I think you missed:
Yeah, I was gonna go fo:+ and another search for toughness>1
I would have missed Figure and Level Up on my own, almost for sure.
@TrainmasterGT , I've got those ones from "mv=1 toughness>1". Goblin Blast-Runner is such a damn cool common.

So, one fun search you can do is "mv=1 tou<2 tou>1". Then there's also "mv=1 is:leveler". "mv=1 -mana>=x tou=0" returns a few interesting ones, many of whom need some proliferate action to live, but not all of them! And yeah, "mv=1 tou=1 fo:"/+" -fo:"/+0" game=paper" is going to find a lot, including some that you may have already found with these previous queries.
cmc<=1 t:creature (fo:/\/\+[1-9]/ or fo:/\/[2-9]/) (power>1 or fo:/\+[1-9]\// or fo:/\/[2-9]/)
This search is a bit large and includes many irrelevant things but searches for one drops which both
* refer either growing toughness or a toughness greater than 1
* have power greater than 1, refer growing power or refer a power greater than 1
Holy hell.
Cards that can increase land density in a deck without causing the player to flood. Too many lands? Channel it or cast the spell half. I like that dynamic, but can't think of more cards that do it. Cycling lands, I guess, but cantripping doesn't feel the same as getting a spell.
Hmm...
I don't think that there's a specific way to look for that, since that concept has very rough edges. Like, would you be satisfied with a "spell" like Teetering Peaks? How about Desolate Lighthouse? Port of Karfell?
I really want cards that you can use as a spell in case of flooding. I'm not totally convinced there's more than DFCs and Channel lands.
not until you make 'em my boy

That's honestly a really cool design. Particularly like it coming in untapped if it's post-adventure
Remove the “if you played it from your hand.” and you have yourself a super clean card with cool effects. And right before Eldraine wuhuuu
(Maybe also remove land types but I am guessing you’ll object to this.)

I mean, it's not my design
For cube purposes being fetchable absolutely is worth bonus points (especially because it enters untapped as is), but for an actual WotC set your suggestions make a lot of sense!I wonder if WotC will actually do something like adventure lands this time. I mean, they had creatures and artifacts already, if they want to do something new, as they always do, there are only lands and enchantments left. And there is no chance they wouldn't bring back adventures, right?
adventure all the things
I already stole this idea for The Custom Black Cube, if you'll recall.I'ld like to direct you to Mown's Valley of Tides, in case you're contemplating customs
Focused on real cards right now, but that could change soon. I may be leaving this job, which would eliminate one of my playgroups.
Adventure battles obviously. Classic triple-faced card.

Aw, losing a playgroup hurts, but I hope you find a cool new job if that happens!

I just took psychic damage
Front face: The Trojan War
Back face: The Odyssey (a Sagaventure) → Odysseus Kills The Suitors
As much as this is a Shitpost I think this is honestly a really cool idea.
