Im currently Auto including: Kraul Harpooner Goblin Cratermaker: I love him. Will be cutting mogg war marshal for him Goblin Banneret- Replacing reckless Waif. I want to up my +1/+1 counters in red and this guy is perfect for it. House Guildmage or Thought Erasure: I can't decide on which is gfetting included yet but I love both. Lotleth Giant: I LOVE THIS GUY. He slots into the dredge deck along with the other grave based decks. Plaguecrafter: New fleshbag is always a good thing but now as a human it plays into the humans deck that has been drafted twice using heirloom blade and the silver dagger.
Considering: Sunhome Stalwart Molderhulk: I really like this for for the Spider spawning / worm harvest deck that currently is in golgari Conclave Cavalier - Strongly considering in my selesnya section however I just moved it to enchantress so i'm not sure if i want to make a cut for this.

i've actually started using a bit more of the monoblack cards from pauper which actually worked well in my cube. Its enabled Cabal Coffers to reenter the cube as an archetype for the cube.

I like having Feind Hunter effects as this provides recastable removal otherwise when I tried ETB in UW I liked Springjack Shepherd enough to keep it in my cube after I cut blink as a primary UW archetype.
The meta shift recently has made Hunts less efficient so yea cutting him seems correct. It makes me sad as I love huntmaster but its just not his time. i am currently testing Thrashing brontodon in his slot as a way to handle enchantments and artifacts when needed as he makes a decent beater if his sac ability isn't needed.
I should note I have run brontodon off and on for a few weeks now and Im currntly liking him as a way to handle the few decks that he is truly needed for and as a one of he is tutorable via primal command but doesnt have to get naturally drawn too often. that is to say while naturally drawing him isn't terrible as he is a base 3/4 for 3 beater it isn't ideal to our game plan.
So last night I tested a few builds and while I dont have them on hand to show what was working I wanted to bring up my new favorite sweeper: Caldera Hellion.
The main reason I love this guy at a two of in my sideboard paired with a single Blasphemous act is that there are 2 matchups where my board wipes are the only cards I need to bring in for 2 decks, Elves and Humans. However in one of these matchups (humans), I have to deal with kitesail freebooter which makes other board wipes in red like firespouts or anger of the gods less efficient as they can be removed.
But with Hellion I get the chance of he is tutorable by primal command, cant be freebootered and can sac down the creatures I would kill to make him much larger of a threat.

Otherwise I currently like Militia Bugler as an option as a way to dig for the draw creatures of mulldrifter and Cloudblazer.
As for rares:
Hixus, Prison Warden seems like a fun crap rare that feels uncommon
Riders of Gavony: allows humans to be a fun tribe and feels like it fits between uncommon and rare in powerlevel
