Couldn't be more annoyed that they spoiled an entire video exclusively through a video with no high-res links to be found, but here's some interesting cards from MIC with cube potential (including one that's only found in the Set Boosters because collecting Magic is very straightforward these days).
Somberwald Beastmaster is a mono-green Trostani's Summoner / improved Maul Splicer, which is incredibly tempting, and deathtouch is no joke -- it's hard to die the turn after you cast this/get it onto the battlefield. This is Revilark's best friend, and Hornet Queen's hot date. The tokens have more power than the bees from Hornet Queen get, but they lose flying, and their deathtouch disappears without the beastmaster herself, which helps it not feel entirely as oppressive. My biggest issue with it is the need for three different tokens on a single card, and that two of them are simply differently sized beasts...so aesthetically unpleasant.
Stalwart Pathlighter is too fragile without coven active but I want to like it all the same, I just don't think it competes with the three drops we've been getting in white lately as much as I find the design exciting.
Sigarda's Vanguard is similarly a little awkward at 5-mana as a combat trick, but it could easily alpha strike an unsuspecting opponent. I think that swingyness is exciting from a gameplay perspective but also that it would engender more feelbad than anything else. I think it's justifiable in lists, but in a similar spot to Inkshield.
