Some powerful cards in this set! Not the deepest, but a few future staples.
Ranked by my estimation of the card surviving in my cube for a year.
Auto-include:
Sheoldred's Edict
90%+
Atraxa, Grand Unifier
Nissa, Ascended Animist
75%+
The Eternal Wanderer
50%+
Planar Disruption
25%+
Conduit of worlds
15%+
Mercurial Spelldancer
Thrunn, Breaker of Silence
Watching (may test in future):
Nahiri, The unforgiving
Elesh Norn, Mother of Machines
Tyrannax Rex
Argentum Masticore
Gleeful Demolition
Tyvar, Jubilant Brawler
Tyvar's Resistance
Staff of the storyteller
Maybe Incubation Pod very low power level so I am waiting for more splicers.
Argentum Masticore - I am aprehensove when there is not much synergy with artifacts (aside of course, that it is an artifact) but this is good removal.
Looking at For Mirran! cards if they fit needed gaps in curve, but unlikely because Reconfigure plays better for me.
Canlerbloom if I lean towards a proliferate theme, but not quite yet.
I'll also get these cards, but do not plan an including them over traditionnal removal, as I run a limited number of Planeswalkers and don't really want the additional flexibility: Planar Disruption Sheoldred's Edict

So far I'll add just one card:
Argentum Masticore
I'll also get these cards, but do not plan an including them over traditionnal removal, as I run a limited number of Planeswalkers and don't really want the additional flexibility:
Planar Disruption
Sheoldred's Edict
My Old School Cube: https://cubecobra.com/cube/overview/19up
My High School Cube: https://cubecobra.com/cube/overview/4hrlq
My Artifact Cube: https://cubecobra.com/cube/overview/mirrodin4
My UN-Cube: https://cubecobra.com/cube/overview/1vc6p
Mine looks like this, but probably not testing the Wanderer unless she's amazing for everyone. Not the deepest set at all but I like these few cards.

My 49th Set (P)review - Discusses my top 20 Cube cards from MKM!
INSANE
- Atraxa, Grand Unifier
Atraxa is a top 3 cube card of the year alongside Orcish Bowmasters and Forth Eorlingas, IMO.
EXCEPTIONAL
- Sheoldred's Edict
- Planar Disruption
Sheoldred's Edict is the best planeswalker removal spell, IMO. Planar Disruption is extremely versatile.
SOLID
- Cankerbloom
- Nissa, Ascended Animist
Not much to say here. Nissa played out a little better than I expected, her scalability is really nice.
Overall my ONE tests performed as I expected, not too many surprises here.
