Cut 2 Asylum Visitor/Heir of Falkenrath/Go for the Throat/ Vampire Hexmage/Oona's Prowler
Duskwatch Recruiter vs Channel
Sin Prodder vs Feldon of Third Path
Prowler (because I feel it overlaps with Heir of Falkenrath). Then either GFTT or Hexmage (though IMO GFTT > Hexmage in a vacuum). But it's a meta question in my mind. What card do you need more?
Ouch on the Feldon / Prodder question. You can't find another cut? I really like Feldon and I think Prodder is going to be awesome. Looking at your list, I'd cut dualcaster. Is that playing well for you? It never found a home here. Fire Imp is another option unless you really need the removal on a stick in red (feels unnecessary with all the burn options).
I'd play it over Go For the Throat if I could only play one of the two. But I don't think Prodder or Recruiter will have a home at 360. Maybe Recruiter over Leap if anything.
Yeah, as soon as I get Sin ProdderDualcaster Mage is going to hit the bricks. The dude never sees play even though he seems like he could be alright.
Duskwatch Recruiter and Anguished Unmaking are going to find slots, though it will be weird putting AU in with Vindicate, considering they're occupying the same CMC, but they're both good.
Anyone have any thoughts about Declaration in Stone? I had it in limited, and it was still super good. 2 mana exile was super good, and even nuked a mini token swarm that I had to deal with. It's pretty darn good.
Note that I play none of these cards in a 720 card cube. Thunderbreak Regent is the only card that has a chance of coming in at some point. Most likely if I drop support for 2 morphs per color (swap for Blistering Firecat). The other cards on that list compete in sections that are too contested by better cards in my opinion.
They left out the part where Yawgmoth is resurrected,but has been cleansed as Yawgmoth the Redeemed,and now must awaken Chromium so that Karn can fuse with him and create what can only be known as : the ultimate taco.
I'd cut Tectonic Edge. Salmo makes a good point in his suggestion, but I really like Mirrodin's Core. Probably more than I should, honestly. I've had great success with it in my Peasant cube and it's surprising how often it ends up with multiple counters on it. I don't run either Core or Edge in my 540, but if I were to add another utility land, Mirrodin's Core would probably be it.
I should probably test westvale abbey.. Intuition says it's not quite good enough, but can't comment.
Between mirrodin's core/tec edge depends a lot on the make up of your cube. If you are running a whole eldrazi package I like core better. If you are only running a couple and you are running 9+ manlands I prefer tec edge. Somewhere in the middle = ??????
FWIW in my cube only Thoughtknot and reality smasher have made it through the eldrazi testing phase. Bearer of silence was close, but then SOI happened.
I think those two are really close, but I'd probably give the edge to the Goblin. I think the fact that it stays 'flipped' once it connects makes it more reliable.
Probably the Impersonator. Tide is good, but only goes in one deck, and that deck doesn't really need specific support to win drafts. And the 4cc creature suite in blue is more shallow than the spell section is.

There's
1 Feldon of the Third Path
1 Goblin Rabblemaster
1 Imperial Recruiter
1 Manic Vandal
1 Magus of the Wheel
1 Squee, Goblin Nabob
I think the weakest one here is Felden.
My other green 2 drop include
Converted Mana 2
1 Den Protector
1 Fauna Shaman
1 Lotus Cobra
1 Rofellos, Llanowar Emissary
1 Sylvan Advocate
1 Scavenging Ooze
1 Tarmogoyf
1 Channel
1 Evolutionary Leap
1 Regrowth
1 Survival of the Fittest
1 Sylvan Library
I think all of them is far stronger recruiter though.
My black 2 drop include
1 Bloodghast
1 Dark Confidant
1 Oona's Prowler
1 Pack Rat
1 Vampire Hexmage
1 Animate Dead
1 Bitterblossom
1 Chainer's Edict
1 Demonic Tutor
1 Diabolic Edict
1 Hymn to Tourach
1 Go for The Throat
1 Profane Command
1 Sinkhole
So I think Heir of Falkenrath might not be a 360 level card after all. I think it is on par with Oona's Prowler though.

2 - Wolfbriar Elemental vs Chameleon Colossus ?
2. Colossus > Wolfbriar
Note that I play none of these cards in a 720 card cube. Thunderbreak Regent is the only card that has a chance of coming in at some point. Most likely if I drop support for 2 morphs per color (swap for Blistering Firecat). The other cards on that list compete in sections that are too contested by better cards in my opinion.
Kalitas, Traitor of Ghet vs Skinrender
Rank the following: Go for the Throat, Diabolic Edict, Murderous Cut, Ruinous Path, Consuming Vapors
How many 'just kill spells' is too many?
Cut two: Searing Blood vs Searing Blaze vs Shrine of Burning Rage vs Lightning Strike/Searing Spear?
Would you play both, one or none of the searing cards? Do you find them too situational? (Unpowered cube, so there's a bit more focus on creatures and combat)
Rift Bolt vs Flames of the Firebrand/Arc Lightning?
Skinrender > Kalitas
Diabolic Edict > Go for the Throat > Ruinous Path > Consuming Vapors > Murderous Cut
Arc Lightning > Rift Bolt
My High Octane Unpowered Cube on CubeCobra
Edict > Path ≥ GftT > Vapors > Cut
Spear/Strike > Blaze ≥ Blood > Shrine
Flames/Lightning > Bolt

Skinrender = Kalitas (I would find another cut)
Go for the Throat >= D. Edict > Ruinous Path > Vapors >= Cut
Spear/Strike > Blaze > Blood > Shrine (agree with wtwlf)
Flame/Lightning > R. Bolt (agree with steve/wtwlf)
Condescend >> Scatter >> Capsize
Skinrender > Kalitas
Go for the Throat > Ruinous Path > Consuming Vapors > Diabolic Edict > Murderous Cut
Arc Lightning >> Rift Bolt
Searing Spear/Lightning Strike > Shrine of Burning Rage > Searing Blaze > Searing Blood
The list on cube cobra
Read my blog on cube - Latest post June 2nd 2022
Condescend > Scatter > Capsize
GFFT > Diabolic Edict > Ruinous Path > Murderous cut > consuming vapors
Searing blaze > lightning strike > Searing blood > Shrine
Kalitas > Skinrinder (but in no world would I ever cut either of them)
Flames > Rift Bolt
(Ah lot of these are close)

Reading through the Blue Mana Denial Archetype discussion (http://www.mtgsalvation.com/forums/the-game/the-cube-forum/cube-card-and-archetype/193673-blue-aggro-control-tempo-mana-denial) I am considering to try Parallax Tide in my cube. So which do you think is best? Clever Impersonator vs Parallax Tide?
