Stifle has some huge blow out potential, but it can be a dead card whereas Impulse is digging you a decent amount for a reasonable cost and is always useful like that. But I can understand looking at the high ceiling of stifle and ignoring the floor, it can be a dominating card.
The cool thing my old group liked about Stifle was trying to find the best way to use it. It does have such a wide variance, it became something of a puzzle, a challenge, to find its best use each game it was drawn. The next group I play with might not feel the same way though. So yeah, the more consistent Impulse is a solid replacement if that is the case. I'll definitely keep an eye on it.
It's been such a long time since I cubed, I'm excited to see how the new changes affect the way the cube plays.
FWIW, at 450 I don't play Impulse or Stifle so I wouldn't be cubing them at 360. Stifle would interest more because at 360, you probably see fetches more often and Stifling them is just dirty.
Was having some difficulty reconciling my cubetutor list and the list here, but I finally got it sorted out. The two lists should match and there should be no duplicate cards.
Den Protector is very good. He's one of the morph cards cubists should run even if they don't support morph. I totally endorse running that. MotWH is really good too. It's a little slow, but it quickly takes over if it's not dealt with.
Fitting Recruiter in was really tough, and I'm not sure Trooper is the right cut, but I had to come up with something. Trooper was my weakest link, but removing a 2cmc for yet another 3cmc isn't sitting quite right. I'll have to keep an eye on that.
Yeah? Hmm, I guess I have enough anthem effects elsewhere I can cut the champion without losing too much. I just wish I had a better 2-drop in that spot. Maybe one will come out in the next set.

How do you all feel about Vengevine and Troll Ascetic at 360 this days?
