few years ago I has played Wayfarer's Bauble in my 720 unpowered cube and it was played reasonably by my playgroup. Brainstone seems better than Bauble and could be fun in large cube. Thougths ?
I don;t think I would play this even if Miracles was a full blown archetype in my cube.

I mean it's not insane, but it makes the maindeck for any deck that didn't get better card draw (which is not uncommon outside of blue).
With the recent interest in Reckoner Bankbuster, I think people would do well to look here.

My 415 Peasant+ Artifact and Enchantment Cube
Ever-Expanding "Just throw it in" cube.
Reckoner draws cards, makes bodies, makes treasures and beats down at various stages during the game.
Not saying brainstone is bad, it's just kinda bland and comparing it to Reckoner really drives that home.
Maybe better in turbo cube though, since games can be very short digging deeper earlier might be preferred.

As far as Brainstone goes, I'd argue it's generally worse than things like Candy Trail / Ransom Note since those have ETB triggers and other effects.
