MTG Salvation

Cube info:

I completely overhauled the Cube list from last year, and with a year's of sets where I didn't touch it, I had to start it from scratch. Input from friends was greatly appreciated.

I also tried to make Mono Black viable in the cube compared to other ones I've seen (so no pro-black knights, Chameleon Colussus, etc). I also am not going to put in Channel or any Eldrazi Titan, and I tried to give at least 1 Reanimator creature per colour (no Iona, though).

Typical Number of Players - 6 - 12.

Size - 540 Cards: 64 of each color, 90 multicolored, 60 artifacts, 70 lands.

Card Selection – Anything can go in here unless it is silver bordered.

Fixed typos.

Thanks for point out all the typos. The post was done at 2 AM, which explains some of those typos.

I will look into the suggestions posted, but I'm going to ignore any creature that has shadow (I loathe that mechanic ).
