is shower of coals just typically in hand where not enough creatures on the board? with Keldon Champion is the Echo too much for a T4 potential 6 point hit?
My friends have not been huge fans of Keldon Champion but i have kept him in the cube because I feel like a 6 pointer can be good esp. with bounce or Gyard shenanigans.
Deadly Recluse is a good little dude, very annoying, while i used to have him in, i think i was hoping to make all the colors a bit more aggressive.
That's an entertaining idea
Wonder what I'd talk about
--
Land tax is this rollercoaster of a card, with super high highs and "oops I mulliganed" lows. I don't like cards like that, so I cut it, but it's averaging being an above average card.
Maze of ith is super strong and very frustrating, hence why I banned it
I think sylvan library is far below average without a strong suite of shuffle effects in the deck, and my green is sadly not aggro enough to say that it wants to pay 8 life, so for now it's sidelined. The card obviously has potential though.
I'm definitely going to add in Diabolic Servitude, but is Unearth really that good? I don't have any experience with it, but getting back a 3cmc or less creature seems unexciting.

I'm guessing the question was in relation to a reanimator archetype; Unearth doesn't really fit there, but as stated above is great for aggro decks to maintain pressure.
Anyone have suggestions for board-stall breakers in different colours? I am building a sub-par cube, and in my experience you can run into some board-stalls pretty easily in environments such as these. I'll definitely think about mitigating them while building, but as a safety-valve, at least to begin with, I'd like to have a few cards that can end stalled games.

Dude, there are SOOO many board breakers in all colors... different types though. the "pump your team & trample", the "tap x creatures", the "creatures are unblockable", or "can't be blocked except by 2 or more", "lure type effects"...
there's too many to just name off the top of my head. I would do a Gatherer search for "can't block" or "creature gets +x" with different adjustments
Wow. Thanks-- especially you whobetta.That's quite a list. I guess I was looking for stuff that may be obvious to you, but not to me. I hadn't expected a thorough search like that, but I certainly appreciate it.
I didn't know that Flame Wave was reprinted as an uncommon. How the mighty has fallen.
Oh I don't doubt that every time it has been cast it is devastating. I had it in my cube for a while but it spent most of it's time as dead weight in hand because of the super awkward casting cost.
Hey guys, been wondering how Vaultbreaker has been for people so far that have added it? I added it, but it's only been played a couple of times and while the dash is nice, one of the times I had it in hand was when i also had Goblin Heelcutter in hand as well, so made things a bit awkward.
I've been seeing a number of comments in various threads here where people put Ornitharch pretty high on their list of cards to cut. Just wondering why that is? I've seen it perform beautifully every time it shows up. Players in my group love drafting it in the UW flicker deck. On more than one occasion I've seen Ornitharch --> opponent lets it come in as a 5/5 --> opponent tries to aim targeted removal on the 'tharch --> controller uses some kind of flicker/bounce spell. Ornitharch comes back in, opponent sighs deeply and then loses in a couple of turns.
Has this not been the case for everyone else?

My 360 Peasant+ Cube!. Modern borders where possible, usually with the newest (or "best") art, and always the most readable card text. I also run all 10 painlands. My playgroup is super casual, as we have a fair number of newer or less experienced players. Typically we draft with 4 to 6 people, using 5 packs of 9.
if Scaleguard turns out to be trash, then I'd probably add it, but what do i take out when Sentinel becomes available?
I think Serra Angel is the correct cut.

I would say are much better than Dread Return and Victimize.

Getting a second go with Vampire Nighthawk or Young Pyromancer or Eternal Witness is quite good. It still has cycling for the times when it's not good too.
Reanimate is great by the way.
Draft it on Cubetutor here, and CubeCobra here.
Treasure Cruise did nothing wrong.
I love to play Unearth in my aggro decks, where getting (and keeping) creatures on the board is super important.

Green:
Red: lots of can't block or only by 2 or more effects
Blue: "A LOT OF TAP EFFECTS" but here are some that KEEP creatures tapped
White: "FLYING" is good, but there is also pump up stuff
Black: this would be the hardest but there are cards with Intimidate or Fear that are good
Artifact:
Skyshaper
This was after a quick 20 minute search/post. Anyway, hope that helps...

Serra Angel
Shattered Angel (multiplayer addition)
that's not counting Feudkiller's Verdict, or the new card from Magic Origins, Sentinel of the Eternal Watch
if Scaleguard turns out to be trash, then I'd probably add it, but what do i take out when Sentinel becomes available?
