Let me know what you think =)

Nice, fairly tight cube. Welcome to the forums.

I agree with sexy about almost everything, especially the lands.

Here are some artifact switches I would consider:

Add:

• Icy Manipulator
  
• Molten-tail Masticore
  
• Bonesplitter
  

Cut:
Puppet Strings
Obelisk of Alara
Sigil of Distinction

At this size cube, I would definitely run Fume Spitter but maybe not Disfigure. Slaughter Pact was really bad for me. I'd prefer Bane of the Living or Barter in Blood.

Your green looks a bit top heavy. I'd cut Primal Command and Rude Awakening for Wall of Blossoms and Wall of Roots. You also need more 3-drops, an area that green exels in. Troll Ascetic, Yavimaya Elder, Viridian Shaman and Ohran Viper would be excellent additions. Primeval Titan and Mitotic Slime are unnecessary and would give you room for two of the great 3-drops.

Definitely add the UG cards that sexy suggess. Keep Mystic Snake and cut any of the others for them.

Curse of Chains needs to be Wall of Denial. RG needs Stormbind and Kird Ape. Suffocating Blast is pretty bad. Gelectrode is a decent replacement. In WB, Desolation Angel and Gerrard's Verdict are better than Tidehollow Sculler.

Cheers,

Edit**wall of text with tons of advise =). the post below was b4 i saw that comment.
on Hermit Druid, lol, was never in my cube, 100% a typo last night when i was putting the list on MWS
i fixed it on the list in this thread as soon as i saw that.

thx both for the feedback =)

@sexyindiancurry and rant - going to do this comment by comment from each section
i just made a huge change to the list about a month ago, i was out of town and didnt get to see any of the new stuff in action. spell pierce, yea no clue yet.

land
i really only have 10 slots to worth with after duel/shock/fetch. i tried the muti-color manlands before i cut the cube to 375. i really like them but there is just no room for them any more =(
As for city, port, dust. just no room unless i cut the vivids. i haven't seen much 5cc out of my play group for some reason.

artifact
icy for puppet strings is going to happen for sure. i have been wanting to do that just gota find me a foil 1 =0
obelisk of alara only goes in one deck for the most part, so cutting cut it for the new masticore seems very reasonable
sigil has been really good for me, but ill give bonesplitter a shot


green
i agree with u that i need more 3 drops but i was trying my hardest to stay away from the double green in the lower drops, that being said Viridian Shaman is going in over the command, i would like to add wall of roots back in as well.

black
i been trying to cut cards from black, its a pain, ill look in to disfigure and Fume Spitter =)

blue
this section had a major change i havent played with the cube since then.

red
the goblin is new as well. it may just be really bad but idk yet. ill fill you in after FNM

gold
meddling kids > call target, that turns off a ton of cards in the cube if u are ahead its hella nice.
wild nat. is a shard card imo, was cut when i went to 375
loam lion/ape what to cut ? tattermunge? and ugg, yea idk, i love me some old boarder foil mirari's wake.

i know my g/u section is horrible ill get on that =/

g. verdict ill give a shot


thx again

~maximo

thx again for the feedback sexy and eidolon

yea i havent played with the current list yet.

the old list was heavy heavy reanimator which usually won
or
the r/w aggro armagedon gets there

ill let u know as we get some more run in with this list.

As for updates
see post #1 ill have all my changes in there. ill update it shortly

nacatl feels like a tri color card to me. i think i may just add it in a artifact slot.
ape/lion will come in for the cards your suggesting

id rather go with utility then manlands to replace vivids


~maximo

eidolon

ill get the updates list to the cc thread asap, it takes me a while to sort and what not. i dont really know all of the tricks yet.

i actually like karmic guide more than sun titan, whose 3cc restriction has caused me some grief when deck building. but inferno titan is a ridiculous autoinclude staple. at 375 cards i could easily see excluding sun titan but not inferno.

Thanks for the list eidolon

once again thx for the input every1....but i must ask for it once again....

what should i cut for....

Go for the Throat?

and i wanted to add Glen Elendra Archmage to the mix ...not sure what to cut there ether.

the list in the original post is not accurate due to updates posted...ill get on that..


~ maximo

For Go for the Throat, I'd cut Slaughter Pact.

For Glen Elendra Archmage, I'd cut Spell Pierce, Voidmage Prodigy, or Body Double. Pierce looks especially bad.

Cheers,
rant

Update 2/8/11


Spell Pirce ---> Glen Elendra Archmage
Spitemare ---> Brion Stoutarm trying this guy out.
Lilana's Specter ---> Go for the Throat i was never really a fan of the specter.

The Specter is card advantage on a 2/1 flyer for 3 cc. It's really good. I like it much more than Slaughter Pact.

Cheers,

slaughter pact hasnt been in the cube since the first update.

i cut it for innocent blood, for some more sac effects.

edit** the list on the first page is now** up to date.

I think they're about on par. Random discard is really powerful when it connects though... I think the potential power level of the Hyppie makes up for it's lack of consistency.

This update is great. Have you thought about trimming the multicolor down to three cards per pair? In such a small cube I have found 30 multicolored cards to be more than enough.

i have to many pet cards in multi color to make that cut...
