So, I decided after Khans of Tarkir when they printed some uncommon/common Wedge cards, I decided to add 5 cards to the cube. I don't draft it as much as most people here, but, I wanted to get some opinions on who includes 3 color cards and what cards they include if they do. Here's what I run:
My current cube runs 6 of each 2 Color Combo, not including mono colored cards with other colored activated abilities. These 10 never seem to get picked or played, and i'm wondering if I should drop them for more non-basics or just cut them altogether and drop the cube to 505. As of right now I have 35 non-basic lands.
I encourage you to cut them. Mana-fixing lands in Peasant are kinda bad, so most decks are two colors. The handful of decks that are willing to play three colors (generally green midrange/ramp decks and blue-based control decks) can just scoop up powerful cards from their splash colors. They don't need help.
I used to have 3-colored support as well and it was among the first things to be thrown out of my CU/be. Simply not worth it. I am always looking at the possibility of reincluding a single card for each combination, though, but only ones which work optimally with all colours but do not require each colour of mana to be used. Stuff like Wild Nacatl. I think currently the combinations preventing this with the fact they have no good options are Esper and Abzan.
Thanks for the input everyone! I was having the same feeling, and I think i'm just going to cut them completely. This will bring my cube down to 505, and I may also look for 1 of each colo to cut to be an even 500. Thanks again!

Bear's Companion, Armament Corps and Sprouting Thrinax are the only ones I care for, and that's because they can have a big impact on the board. Splashing for a charm or random value dude like Sultai Soothsayer or Warden of the Eye is unexciting.
