I have to admit I have not played with either but I would have to figure that by now, there is very little reason to play Nuisance Engine over Whirlermaker. Even with the cheaper activation cost, the bodies are just so much worse outside them being needed as mere fodder.
I put in Whirlermakerinto my Modern CUbe. My artifact deck just needed mana sinks since everything in the deck is free at some point but I just couldn't find anything good... so Whirlermaker seemed like the best option. Flying is very important for cranial plating holding.
What do we think is the best Threaten effect available to us? I really wanted to like Keldon Overseer and I think the reason is I'm not playing any threatens right now, just infinite "can't block" effects. I remember trying Frenzied Fugue and feeling kind of meh about it, and it seems like one of the better ones. Maybe I should give it another go.
Been slowly foiling out my CUbe. Mostly just snagging new cards as soon as they come out so they have a lesser chance to get foil bend in them. I have been super picky with what I put in. I am wanting to start picking up more the expensive foils ($5 and up). This made me curious.
What cards do you feel like won't be replaced any time soon and are safe to pick up (regardless of foil price).
What cards do you you think are the sexiest foil cards in your cubes?
I have been able to pick up some cards for a good price like my beautiful UL Mother of Runes. But also replaced a few foils with other cards here and there. Just had me thinking.
I think I’m somewhere around 340/360 pimped. Pimp everything. Promos whenever possible (except This trash). Signed/alter when foil/promo not available.
Since my cube is already nearly pimped, my vote goes to pimp everything that is gonna stick around for a while as well as the cheap foils, then go for everything else.
Also, buy a small handful of foil zendikar lands each time you go to tcgplayer.
Currently have 4x each full art available foiled, minus un-cards.
Do you want any foil version, or very specific ones?
Yeah. I am trying to go for OG foils when I can. I try to avoid Masters reprints when OG has a foil. (Unless downshifted from rare)
I won't put in promos that have a gold promo symbol, either. A little weird, but it makes me feel like they are rare.
I currently have only one signed card, but want to increase that number.
One of my absolute favorite things about my CUbe is that nearly all of my signed cards has an additional "play tip" that I requested to be written by the artist. Some of them are helpful and some are hilariously botched.
Two of my favorites are a Stormfront Pegasus that has "Good to drop" written on it instead of "Good two drop" and a Cloudfin Raptor that states "2 the skies!" instead of "To the skies!"
My absolute favorite is a foil Unhinged Booster Tutor on which Christopher Rush wrote "Draft a land." I got this signed at GP Orlando a few years back before he passed, and it is a very proud part of my collection.
For folks that have tried Nuisance Engine in CUbe, what was your experience?
Also, after all the Preacher talk I think I'll dig my old one out and test it in CUbe too.

Rancor and Counterspell are both here-til-forever staples, but you can get A25 versions in foil for like two bucks now.
I'm still happy to have spent what I spent on ULG and MMQ versions, though, since they look a bajillion times better
It just seemed like the right thing to do.
