some interesting MTGO Legacy Cube updates:
-Vampires theme is gone, went largely undrafted
-he's got weird metrics for 'it worked out' but the underlying idea to keep tinkering with the cube is commendable (Randy please try a recursive black aggro theme next we think it's viable and fun)
"However, there are several ways in which it did work out, and I fully stand by our decision to try it. Specifically, many people took it as a challenge to try to win with Vampires, and I got sent more than a couple of 3-0 screenshots on Twitter. In addition, I remain confident that the right process for maintaining the Legacy Cube for the long-term is to try similarly sized and shaped experiments on a regular basis."
-enough people complained that Eureka, Progenitus, and Show and Tell are back in
-new black subtheme is
Shallow Grave and friends to tie in w/ Big Cheatz strategies
-also black devotion ft phyrexian obliterator & erebos
"On top of that there’s also a small sacrifice theme that we’re dabbling in. I honestly don’t know if Sidisi, Undead Vizier and Carrion Feeder are enough to make Abyssal Persecutor into a good card, but it should be fun to find out."
-green's bad midrange cards are now okay midrange cards
-top decks according to win% are
aggro,
aggro,
control
-tradewind rider got cut, RIP
-blood artist leaves along w/ the vampire theme, so do night's whisper, xathrid necromancer, and consuming vapours to make room for Erebos & co
-bloodsoaked champion comes in! i hope it doesn't get cut next patch though
-goblin bombardment comes out to buff the sacrifice theme
-RIP Loam, Call of the Herd, Warden of the 1st Tree, Boon Satyr, Harrow
-Depths/Stage comes in, awesome! but, uh, why did they cut Loam then?
