My 28th HOT TAKES article on CubeCobra! Let me know if there’s a card that I missed and I’ll respond back with the hottest of takes. Also, feel free to join the Online Cube Drafts Discord Group to discuss all things Cube plus use Xmage to host tournaments to draft / play with our own cubes!
Great article! And aside from the objectively incorrect and unwarranted FFVII hate, great takes all around too. I share your love of IV and VI, but love me some FFVII too.
Super envious of your meeting of Nobuo Uematsu. Insane.

Thanks! To be clear, I'm actually very fond of FF7 and don't hate it at all. But it being the most popular one means I gotta pick on it.
Somehow I forgot Sabin and Kujata into the article, big oversight on my part. I had a lot of Sabin jokes / memes in my head too. Sabin is my favorite FF character to play as, I'm really kicking myself over forgetting him in the article.
As far as Kujata goes, I probably would've just copied and pasted what I originally wrote here on MTGS into the article:
Quote from steve_man »
As a pure 6-cmc red creature, this does look a good amount better than Inferno Titan. A 7/5 with haste + trample that can bolt up to two creatures is no joke. Losing the flexibility of dividable burn on anything is a bummer, but overall it's worth the trade. While this will probably be the final nail in Inferno Titan's coffin for a lot of cubes, I do prefer the modality of Trumpeting Carnosaur / Overlord of the Boiler Bilges over this. I actually just recently cut Inferno Titan for something completely different, otherwise that would've been an easy swap.
Nice article! Other than the Sabin and Kujata omissions, I think Cait Sith is also being underrated as a very cool option for slower/more fair cubes (or artifact cubes).
