I would assume arrogance of mortals couldn't get printed. It's a blink effect in monoblack, and a blink effect with a +1/+1 counter attached to with multiple upsides for 1 white mana
Sweet! Your cube is dope. My list is very similar to yours, but with Lore Seeker and 14 other conspiracy-like cards to spice up the draft, like Worldknit .
Interesting quote from Sam Stoddard's latest article:
Quote from Latest Dvelopments »
The other nice thing about how we are creating products now is that we have a place to put high-complexity sets, and I'll be talking about one next week: Modern Masters 2017 Edition. This is the set where the designers and developers get to go a bit deeper down the rabbit hole than usual and print some cards at common that would never fly in a Standard-legal booster release.
I guess I won't be expecting a ton from MM17, but I'd be happy with 3 good cards and a half dozen or so reprints with the nice M15 frame and most up to date wording (dies, create, etc.)

Maybe Lunar Mystic downshifted for the instant control deck, but that deck should have more than enough card advantage with its Mystic Speculation Mystical Teachings engine.
If Lu Xun is already a little underwhelming, I really don't want to play Lunar Mystic.
I was thinking just of exile-enablers and not targets -- Blade Splicer would be a really sweet one, and I think I've got a foil copy already stashed away somewhere from my poorly thought out "maybe these will be downshifted" pile of cards.
Oona's Prowler is also in that pile, and it kiiiiiiinda works with Unearth. You'd obviously rather have something that discards for a benefit, though.
They both seem like possible uncommons. Demon is an almost-Mahamoti Djinn with some cool upside for the Unearth deck, but doesn't seem like it's way above the power level of even a plain old Serra Angel.
Thunder is just expensive enough to re-buy that I'm not even sure I'd cube it. Still, 4/4 flyer is a big attacker, even if you have to pay eight to get its two attacks in.
For the token archetype there's Wurmcalling and Growing Ranks in addition to the cards that have already been named. Both of those could be used as uncommon anchors for the archetype.
I would LOVE to have Scion of Vitu-Ghazi. I'm not even sure it's better than Cloudgoat Ranger, to be honest. Also, I'm not sure if I'd even run Wayfaring Temple. I mean, when it works it works, but when it doesn't... Just a big dumb beater, and Selesnya slots are super tight.

Doesn't work for MM17 either, imagine a draft where you pick up two or three of these in a set with Populate.
I do agree that with enough actual Populate keywords around it would likely be too much of a groan causer.
