Well, since there's not a lot to talk about (yet), let's discuss Gaea's Blessing for a bit.
I know I will try to cram it in somehow, even if it's just for nostalgia's sake. The card is not the best ever, but I can see it working out in grindy control decks. The funny thing is that it doesn't really fit in most dredge/graveyard decks because most of the time these decks don't really want to dredge the card away.
Pretty sure I would rather cube Elixir of Immortality over Blessing, it's easier to setup and seems like a better benefit to me.
The Graveborn Animate Dead is pretty bad. WotC did say that the cards will have a "premium foiling process", which scares me. I was no fan of Modern Masters 2015's foiling. I'm just hoping it's not that bad, I really want a foil Baleful Stryx from this set in my cube.
I haven't seen them all, but the foiling for FTV: Angels was superb. From what I understand, the premium foils are fairly touch and go in terms of quality.
Not sure how that makes sense in the same set as Bloodbraid. I'm also not in particular need of more red or green 4's, but it's a cool card that would fit nicely at C/U... oh well.
Yea, just bothers me seeing a rare symbol on my cards... I try to keep it to cards actually printed in paper as an uncommon. We will see, I might change my mind some day
Since they are trying to push the enchantment theme, any chance of the green enchantress as well? Probably not, I can see them reprinting Yavimaya Enchantress over it.
Am I missing something? Is Mesa Enchantress really good? It compares a bit with Garruk's Packleader or Abzan Beastmaster but worse and I don't think those are really playable in cubes under 500 cards.
I have no interest in the enchantress. Like Io said, by the third draw I'm finally getting my monies worth but am I still happy that I had to wait for the cards, had to draw it relatively early, and built my deck for it?

He's not the only one. Should we get a thread started now for "Enchantments Matter"? I hear one coming....

Are you even happy after card #3? I guess you might be, but that's also not going to happen in the vast majority of CUbe games.

I'll probably try Sinkhole when I find a copy in the $5 range.
