Thanks to everyone here that participated in the survey - we truly couldn't do it without you.
Did any results surprise you? I was surprised to see Hullbreacher and Opposition Agent ranked so highly, though I was not surprised to see the community so lukewarm on Monarch cards - it's a divisive mechanic!

My Cubes - The Busted Cube. A fully functional, almost 100% custom cube. The project started out by asking "What if other colors got cards on the power level of Mana Drain,Ancestral Recall, and Time Walk?" Draft and enjoy!
Top 3 are exactly where I would put them. They seem like the slam dunks from the set. I think Opposition Agent is being overrated because it's an effect we haven't seen before on a card that will likely be a commander powerhouse, but cubers are forgetting how many of the search effects happen on or before turn 3 and how low of a floor a 3/2 flash really is in modern cube. Not saying it's unplayable, just that I think it's probably several ranks too high.
Wheel of misfortune seems criminally underrated to me. Yes, it's probably an aggro-only card, but anything that has a decent chance of being a 1-sided draw 7 for aggro in a fair number of games seems like we should start assuming it will be strong and adjust down, rather than the other way. I expect people are (rightly so) remembering all the times they've been burned by punisher cards that looked good but weren't, but this is very different from most other punisher cards IMO. Man I need to get some cubing in again. Stupid pandemic.
