This should totally be a DFC too!

Hey, how does this mechanic sound?

Gifted Soldier {1}{W}
Gifted: When ~'s power is greater than 2, ~ gets +1/+1
2/2

Gifted: When ~'s power is greater than it's base power, Effect

I was thinking about a nice marriage between double strike and heroic. I don't like that double strike has the inflexible benefit of doubling any increases to power, and that heroic doesn't work with Equipment/Anthems/Abilities. It's not quite as flexible as prowess triggering off literally anything but another creature, but I feel like there's a little more that can be done here, like activated abilities that only work when the creature has been pumped.

There's one problem I can see from the "Just made this up" perspective, which is that if the card above is a 6/6, Dismember kills it (which I think you can avoid pretty well in a cube. Tragic Slip was the only one I was worried about)

Am I going crazy?

So... today I need to vent some ideas to keep me sane or something.

Cackling Demon {2}{B}{B}
Creature - Demon
Trample
Nonland cards you own have madness. The madness cost is equal to its casting cost. (If you discard a nonland card, you may cast it for its casting cost instead of putting it into your graveyard.)
At the beginning of your end step, discard a card.
5/4

Up {1}{U}
Instant
Until end of turn, target creature has base power and toughness 4/4 and gains flying.
//
Down {2}{G}
Instant
Destroy target creature if it has flying.
//
Fuse (You may cast one or both halves of this card from your hand.)

Another realization: this doesn't really support the "vertical growth" that seems to be the draw to heroic. Might need to reconsider.
Perhaps this is a nice thing to compliment and provide overlap between various creature strategies, rather than being a main pin of those archetypes (More Kitchen Finks tying things together than Prophetic Flamespeaker being a draw)

i'm really not a fan of "loophole" cards like this to get around color pie restrictions

Looking for awesome cards for my gold cube ("soon" to turn {W}{U}{B}{G}{R}) I came across the split cards and though, what if... what if I mixed these up and shuffled them around... and gave them fuse. Would that be cool? Then I though, why does it have to be split cards? I can also put normal cards on a fuse frame! First two:

Fuse is awesome :) I have to get a little more creative too with the other options, there aren't really a lot of options that make sense when fused. It's time for some real customs methinks!

See link in my sig. The colors will be different, but the composition and power level of the cube should be fairly comparable.

Edit: Also, number four:

Edit2: This should probably be a sorcery? Or more expensive?

I think it's fine. Maybe make the "switch" cost one more. Stealing a creature at instant speed, even conditionally, should be 5 mana. 7 mana to thwomp them and take their dude feels right for the cost.
