Staple: Once in, this card is unlikely to come out of the cube because of its power level. Typically only cut as design decision. Examples are: Vildin-Pack Outcast, Terror, Evolving Wilds.
Cubeable: This card is good, but not so good that it demands inclusion. Especially in a small cube, there tend to be more cubeable cards than slots. Examples: Borrowed Grace, Fogwalker, Borderland Ranger.
Underpowered: These cards are all far below standard pauper cube power levels. Only include if you are lacking cards or as a tactical design decision. Examples: Boon of Emrakul, Unnatural Aggression, Olivia's Dragoon.
Borrowed GraceCubeable Better than Fortify. This is a great addition for token archetypes. Choking RestraintsCubeble Worse than both Pacifism and Arrest. In terms of power, this will make it's way into most white decks. It's just a design decision whether you include "worse" removal like this. Dawn GryffUnderpowered There are much better and more interesting 3 drops than this. Desperate SentryNiche It requires a lot of work to make this good. Much more than your average cube is willing to put in. Faithbearer PaladinCubeable Lifelink makes this strong. This is going to ruin an aggro players day if they don't have hard removal on hand. Time will tell if it is just good or if it is great. Fiend BinderNiche A respectable attacker. He works well with other similar tempo effects. However it doesn't take many 2 powered blockers to ruin his day, which isn't great for a 4-drop. Guardian of PilgrimsUnderpowered Not up to current 2-drop standards. This is fine if you consistently have a 1-drop. But that seems unlikely. Ironclad SlayerCubeable A much better Auramancer. A 3/2 on 3 is fine if you are trying to curve out, and the upside is pretty huge. This could be ran even without heavy aura support. Ironwright's CleansingTerrible No thank you. Lunarch MantleNiche If you have a way to abuse the sacrifice on this, it gets pretty gross. Outside of that I can see this making it's way into aggro decks, or aura/hexproof decks. This definitely isn't a card for every cube, but it seems good it the ones which can support it. Sigardian PriestNiche She isn't great, but it is a 2-drop tapper. The non-human clause gives her flavour points. Spectral ReservesUnderpowered 2 power with flying for 4 mana is bad. The upsides do not make up for this. Steadfast CatharNiche Decent at attacking, but pretty horrible at blocking. I expect this to be worse than it looks. Thraben Standard BearerUnderpowered You are going to need a lot of madness to consider playing this.
Contingency PlanTerrible This is only acceptable with a crazy amount of delirium. ConvoluteNiche This is on the weak end of counter magic. The single blue mana in the cost saves it from being horrible. DisplaceCubeable It's Ghostly Flicker 2.0. This effect is strong, but require good support to make it work. Drag UnderUnderpowered Sorcery speed... No thanks. Enlightened ManiacNiche Great with flicker effects, however it struggles to be playable without support. Exultant CultistNiche How good this card is depends entirely on how well it can block 1-2-drops in your cube. Ingenious SkaabStaple The best midrange, non-evasion 3-drop in blue. This a must-run if you are leaning away from evasion cards defining blue. FogwalkerCubeable A great anti-aggro card. It can also safely poke your opponent down. However it on the weak end of strong blue 2-drops. Laboratory BruteUnderpowered Gets better with a lot of blue graveyard support, but by itself quite lackluster. Spontaneous MutationNiche Fine in durdle control, where you can always expect to have a decent hand size. However would never be played out of that. Take InventoryTerrible/Niche Have you even considered yourself an anarchist? Do you like starting flame wars it cube threads? If yes this card might be for you, but you need to run a lot of them to make it work. If you are a "normal" person who only likes singles, then this is terrible. Tattered HaunterStaple Functional reprint of Welkin Tern number 3. At least 1 is considered a staple in cubes which support aggro blue. It's about as good as aggro 2 drops get. Outside of that archetype it's still a good card. Turn AsideNiche A good Aggro/Tempo card, but pretty bad outside of protect the Kiln Fiend decks. Wretched GryffCubeable Has a lot of synergy with all the etb creatures in blue, plus provides a threatening flying body. While it is vulnerable to removal, it demands removing and a Lightning Bolt isn't going to cut it.
Boon of EmrakulUnderpowered Primarily a removal spell. The average quality of removal would be low to justify running this. Borrowed MalevolenceNiche The dream is a 2 for 1, however the reality is it will mostly be used as a ping on a 1 toughness creature. Flexibility makes this card deceptively good. Cemetery RecruitmentNiche This is the definition of a niche card. In the right context (ie with a lot of zombies) this is a power house, outside of that it's not so great. Certain DeathTerrible 6 mana is awful for anything that doesn't at least 2 for 1, or provide a massive momentum change. Gavony UnhallowedCubeable Against good aggro decks, this is bad. In any other match up, this is going to be a huge pain to deal with. 4 toughness is enough to ensure it doesn't randomly die and only takes a couple of counters before it's presence dominates the game. It gets much better with sac outlets and tokens. Graf RatsTerrible/Niche Functionally it is a vanilla 2/1 for 2. If you are willing to include weird draft gimmicks becomes realitiely strong. To make that work you are going to need multiple copies of this and Midnight Scavengers or, draft one get.. If you happen to get both in draft there is enough graveyard recursion that getting Chittering Host assembled becomes likely enough to justify running. When flipped it becomes quite a menace. You are likely to win in 1 swing with any kind of board presence. Midnight SavangersNiche/Cubeable A fine card on it's own, although weak on the Gravedigger spectrum. See above for Chittering Host. Olivia's DragoonUnderpowered A good card with any kind of madness and discard synergy. It's not good without any synergy. Skirsdag SupplicantTerrible This is understatted, with a bad ability. As a discard outlet, this wouldn't be one to go for. Strange AugmentationTerrible This suffers from aura-syndrome. Delirium is too slow for this to be impactful. Succumb to TemptationNiche 3 mana for Sign in Blood is too much. Instant-speed helps a lot, but in black holding mana up isn't strong enough to justify the extra cost. Thraben FoulbloodsCubeable A 3/2 for 3 is fine as a body on curve. Being able to upgrade that to a 4/3 menace is huge and makes this ok early and good late. Wailing GhoulNiche 1/3's are good at slowing down aggro. Having an etb which moves you game plan (of filling the graveyard) is really good for the decks which would want this. It fills a purpose and does it well. Obviously if you are not supporting a graveyard subtheme it becomes terrible. Weirded VampireUnderpowered Terrible as a vanilla and only a Centaur Courser with an enabler.
Summary Gavony Unhallowed is a good pick up if you have a critical mass of enablers. Thraben Foulbloods is another strong cards, but again requires you to be running graveyard synergy to be worth a slot. Only a couple of archetype specific cards this time, although they both add well to those archetypes. Murder is also in this set, although as an uncommon, but it is cubeable and worth noting.
Red
Alchemist's GreetingNiche This is a great card with adequate support. Massively overcosted without support. Bold ImpalerTerrible Mana sinks like this tend to be bad in pauper. There is a big emphasis on curving out, which this doesn't help with. The default body needs to be decent, which this isn't. Borrowed HostilityUnderpowered Both modes don't do much on their own and combined they are overcosted. The flexibility doesn't make up for this. The first strike part could be better than I'm giving it credit for. Brazen WolvesStaple 4/3 for 3 attacking is what aggro decks want in a 3 drop. The fact that this sucks defense is negligible for the archetypes which would run it. Distemper of the BloodTerrible Sorcery-speed on a combat trip is one of the worst things ever. This is strong is you can reliably discard at instant-speed, which seems unlikely even in a madness deck. Falkenrath ReaverTerrible Power creep joke Galvanic BombardmentUnderpowered A creature only Shock is fine if it has an upside. Fortunately Bombardment does, however the catch is you have to run multiples. If you bite the bullet and do, this becomes a very strong card. At 3 copies it is rivaling good burn in terms of efficacy. Anymore copies in a deck and they become some of the best burn printed. Except for the fact Bombardment can't go face which holds it back from being Lightning Bolt good. Make MischiefUnderpowered Do have a infestation of 1 toughness creatures? No? Then this card isn't that good. Sorcery-speed is the nail in the coffin. Otherworldly BurstCubeable This is mana efficient with the potential for a 2 for 1 (not likely though). While being weaker than premium burn, it manages not to compete for card slots by acting primarily as a creature. It's also worth noting that you can use this on your opponent's creatures. Prophetic RavingsUnderpowered An aura with a immediate effect undoes most inherit weaknesses. However this effect isn't really worth investing 2 cards in getting. In saying that if you can get this on something that easily untaps... Stensia BanquetTerrible Vampires... Most cubes will have difficulties getting this to do 1 damage. Stensia InnkeeperNiche It is hard to evaluate this kind of effect. If Stone Rain and Hill Giant had a love child it would look like this. Innkeeper seems like a good fit into an pressure or rampy deck where you are able to punish your opponent behind on curve. Thermo-AlchemistCubeable A great fit into a spells archetype alongside Kiln Fiend. As a bonus Alchemist is good at soaking up damage. Vildin-Pack OutcastStaple The strongest 5-drop red has seen so far. While no Nessian Asp it will be a power house in all midrange red decks. It should be ran unless you don't believe in 5-drops in red...
Summary Otherworldly Burst and Thermo-Alchemist are both cubeable cards in their own right. They might not be guaranteed slots, but they are worth consideration. Vildin-Pack Outcast and Brazen Wolves are the stand outs. Outcast in particular will be the best (not aggro) 5 drop in red.
Green
Backwoods SurvivalistsCubeable Ok as a vanilla, decent with delirium. The pay-off isn't that high to warrant working for delirium. Seems fine a long side other graveyard matters cards. BloodbrairNiche This is either lackluster or a powerhouse. It's worth having a look at who many sac outlets their are in your cube and how many 1-off sac effects there are. Also it works off any any card types not just creatures, so Evolving Wilds counts too. I'm leaning towards this being good as it as there are a lot of pre-existing synergies in most cubes. Crossroads ConsecratorTerribleInfantry Veteran you are not. The activation cost kills this. Grapple with the PastCubeable Finally a cubeable green Regrowth. The fact it fill the graveyard pushes this over the edge. It of the Horrid SwarmCubeable This is pretty sad in it's native colour, green, outside of sacing the occasional Civic Wayfinder. Although It is really good in token strategies and with etb creatures in other colours (*cough* blue). Prey UponNiche Despite not being the best removal spell, this proves that green is willing to play just about any semi-decent cheap removal. Primal DruidUnderpowered This is sad next to Viridian Emissary and Wall of Roots. It is only fine against aggro and even then isn't great. Springsage RitualTerrible 4 mana is far too much for a Naturalize. The life gain does not compromise for this. Ulvenwald CaptiveNiche 2 cost mana dorks are fine, but require an upside to be worth it. This one's upside is being able to turn into a great body late game. Waxing MoonTerrible Yet another card which requires a creature type rarely (if ever) supported in pauper cubes. In short it is a functionally dead card 95% of the time. Wolfkin BondUnderpowered 5 mana is a lot for such an underwhelming effect. Woodcutter's GritUnderpowered This is on the weak end of combat tricks and will not stop a Doom Blade in response (as much as you think it should). In the end 3 mana is a lot to hold up and the pay-off isn't there. Woodland PatrolUnderpowered This is pretty mediocre as far as 3-drops are concerned. 2 toughness means it trades down with 1 and 2 drops. Vigilance doesn't compensate for this.
Cathar's ShieldUnderpowered I still haven't found out how to make toughness buffing equipment good and the equip cost is too high to be useful. Cultist's StaffCubeable A solid stat stick. This isn't going to find a home in aggro decks. It is fine in midrange decks where a extra 3 mana here and there. Field CreeperTerrible Gotta give it to him for having a cool pumpkin as a head. TerrarionTerrible Colour fixing is better than people give it credit for. As well as that it has a bunch of random synergies. Despite all this, Terrarion does functionally nothing in your average deck.
Summary Cultist's Staff, while not pretty, is a fine card for anyone missing some equipment.
Overall a great set for cubeables. However most cards are relatively narrow into which archetypes they fit. Not every cube will want the cards listed below, but they are all worthy of consideration in some way or another. Ingenious Skaab, Brazen Wolves and Vildin-Pack Outcast are both stand-out cards in their respective card-slots. Despite this none of them push the envelop for power in pauper cube.
Excellent review. It is odd how changing the words used to describe the different cards actually makes a big difference. I think the words you've chosen make it very obvious to the reader on when they should be considering the card in question.
I think the only cards I value differently than yourself is
Backwoods Survivalists I prefer T4 so much more than T3. I think I would prefer a Rumbling Baloth most of the time and that is a card that rarely sees play in Powered or Archetype cubes. I also think that the cards you have to add to a cube to enable delirium waters down the cube significantly and all for a pay off on 2-3 playable delirium commons. Maybe delirium will be easier to enable and these sort of cards will be fine in a normal deck and really shine in graveyard matters. I've been considering adding a few more sacrificial artifacts and enchantments to enable delirium more easily.
Brazen Wolves This seems a staple to me. I just can't envision a red deck that won't play this.
Edit: I'd also tag this pauper as well or it will be missed by many people.
You also need to proof read all your work again, a fair few links to cards are not working and a few sentences with typos/wrong words etc.
I want to find another word to replace Staple next time I do a review.
I should bump Brazen Wolves up to staple. I didn't think about how 3 toughness is so much better than 2 when comparing Wolves to Spur Grappler. Wolves out classes Grappler and I missed that.
I was super tired when finishing this. I had to hand in some assignments before I got into writing the bulk of this. I'll clean this up and retag.
Thanks for the feedback. This was mostly targetted at the people who don't have all the cards for pauper cube and are mostly relying on the newest sets.
White
Borrowed Grace Cubeable Better than Fortify. This is a great addition for token archetypes.
