When I see Healing Salve, I'm often like "Oh girl, I wish I could turn every card into this." Thanks they removed the gain life part, otherwise this would have been broken.
Drafted on Sunday with 8 people and solidified a few things:
1. Grave Titan wins games. He has no other purpose. He. Just. Wins.
2. Flickerwisp is MUCH better than I thought it was. He was blinking Control Magic'd creatures, has synergy with tons of cards like Parallax Wave, and turns sideways for 3 in the air. Woof. The dude who was playing him took a chance and blinked my morph, revealing (and killing) a Blistering Firecat. /cry
3. Stunted Growth saw play for the first time and received very positive results.
4. Ashling the Pilgrim holds a spot in my heart now... I got my opponent down to about 13 when they dropped a Moat. I pitched a few burn spells at him, kept pumping up Ashling twice a turn, then finally finished my opponent off when Ashling exploded for 8.
I tried taking pictures of the cube, but gave up after the flash kept ruining pictures, and no flash would make them look blurry. Should I just do what some people do and make visual spoilers out of magiccards.info?
Also, I'm cutting tri-color down to 5 cards, meaning:
1. My gold section will be at 65 (WOOHOO!)
2. Each color gets 1 more card! What am I missing?

don't use a flash and make sure there's plenty of light in the room. the more practice you get the less blurry they'll be.

I recently made this same change (I only I added Kami because I already had Unicorn). The War Priest was a vanilla bear a lot more often than I wanted him to be. Great update!

Yeah... it hurts my heart to cut an awesome pic guy for yet another crappy pic guy (thanks a lot stormfront pegasus and mistral charger!), but I finally realized why the horse is better.
Seriously, why do most of the cubable white weenies have such weenie artwork?
...oh wait, I suppose I just answered my own question.

I'd keep Warp and cut Deny Reality. Don't cut Mortify (either other cut is fine). Any of the UG or BG cards can go; all four are pretty mediocre.

those look good, i'd lose the dominous, deny reality, and death grasp.
so anyway... why don't you run terror or doom blade again?

i don't like losing primus either, and i don't like losing broodmate dragon.
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Something ---> Fume Spitter Black Mogg Fanatic (kinda)
Something ---> Necrogen Scudder Splashable, lovable aggro
Silent Specter ---> Geth, Lord of the Vault Specter < this guy
Something ---> Spikeshot Elder Awesome Red 1 Drop
Probably cutting Hammer of Borgardan for Arc Trail. I'm not ready to give up Sudden Shock.

that's a good call because sudden shock is a lot better than hammer of bogardan.
The Scudder is okay, but black aggro has better creatures, and better 3-drops.

Mirror Entity
Willbender
Fume Spitter
Spikeshot Elder
Survival of the Fittest (found a card shop that had one of these for $12)

Silent Specter ---> Geth, Lord of the Vault
Hammer of Bogardan ---> Arc Trail
Now, do I cut Putrid Imp or Oona's Prowler for Sarcomancy? I still want to leave an early game reanimator facilitator, but am not ready to cut Nezumi Shortfang...

1. A pegasus flying through a storm
2. A rabid pegasus takes a chunk out of an elf's shoulder
3. A pegasus flying through a unicorn and the unicorn explodes into a rainbow
I'm just sayin. Tell Paolo Parente or Wayne Reynolds to draw a pegasus, and they'd make it BA.
