From what I remember the board state was quite small when the UR wanted to cast Jilt, potentially because of using the other burn and counter spells that he had in the deck to control the overall board presence or something along those lines.
I plan to keep Jilt around for a bit longer, as I too believe it can do wonders.
I'm also tossing up what to replace Nemesis of Mortals with, as it's been a little bit underwhelming lately. I'm not sure whether to go replace it with something else graveyard related (i.e. Hooting Mandrills or Deadwood Treefolk) or place another big creature in its place (i.e. Ancient Silverback, Great Oak Guardian etc). :s
On another note, I've been meaning to turn this particular cube into a low-power cube instead of just a peasant cube. As much as I love drafting peasant cube, I've been more than eager to draft some personal favourites that aren't even that powerful (i.e. Hound of Griselbrand, Char, Precinct Captain etc).
Below were some thoughts I had for additions and swaps. Comments and suggestions are more than welcome.
