I have all my hybrid cards in my monocolor sections because I'm lazy and figured it doesn't make too big of a difference, but if I ever recategorize them, I'll be moving them to my colorless section rather than multicolor. Guild cards only fit in 1 guild, monocolor cards go in 4 guilds, hybrid cards go in 7 guilds, colorless cards go in 10. In practice though, most artifacts are only wanted by maybe 7 guilds tops. I think the difference between hybrid and colorless is actually the most negligible difference between any two categories. The reason I have a multicolor section is because I want to limit how many overly narrow cards I run. Adding cards that are almost-colorless to that kind of defeats the purpose to me. If I thought I had too many overly narrow multicolor cards, I would just shrink that section rather than try to water it down.
Anwyay, good removal spell is good. I just wish we can get more disenchant effects that are more maindeckable (on bodies, other modes, etc).
The average case scenario for this is exactly turn 5, the same as disk (sum of x/(2^(x-3)) from 4 to infinity)
Killing planeswalkers is a plus for me since I don't support superfriends as a strategy. Not sure if this is good enough to test though but its not terrible and I would run it over Disk.
I prefer board wipes that let creatures regenerate. I don't like it when regenerate is literal flavor text in an environment. Life gain is sweet on a board wipe. I need to make room for this.
I don't know if I like it as much as Asylum Visitor or Heir of Falkenrath. Maybe its better than Pale Rider of Trostad but idk. If SOI didn't happen, I feel like this would be a slam dunk. Not sure I can make room for it now.
This is probably more playable than Etherium Sculptor because its body is actually relevant and does work, but I think making artifacts costs 1 less is a pretty small effect in cube that's hard to get much out of. If you want to cast an artifact or two every turn, maybe, but otherwise, it won't matter enough.
I run Yawgmoth's Will without storm. Perfectly fine card. Recently used it to play a land and bloodbraid. It usually gets back like 2 cards and its just good.
Bargain is something I've thought about but there's a lot of aggro in my cube and 6 mana do nothing but pay life seems bad. By the time you can use the cards, its probably too late. I don't have much respect for the card in cube.
As a cube drafter, how highly do you pick Wurmcoil Engine?
Very highly after power.
As a cube manager, how do you feel about Wurmcoil Engine's role in cube?
It isn't touching my unpowered list. I would need to be in the market for colorless nukes.
What cards do you see as game ruining BS?
It depends a lot on the playgroup and the environment. Highly pickable cards that slot into most decks while dominating games on their own generally qualify. It depends on how much the card hoses the supported archetypes, how answerable they are, etc.
Aesthetically speaking, do you prefer your Wurmcoil Engine facing right or facing left?
The only thing Sword of the Meek does is synergize strongly with Thopter Foundry. Thopter control would enter the format as a pretty solid deck but really wouldn't do anything borked. Note that when Bloodbraid Elf was banned, the only reason was because Jund was far too powerful. Since then, Deathrite Shaman was banned which was the card that was actually giving Jund its superpowers. BBE was modern legal for awhile before DRS and was fine, and most pros already agree that BBE is safe and would only have a minimal effect on the format at this point. Even Patrick Chapin is advocating for an unban now. If you don't like scapeshift, that's fine, but it isn't a format defining deck, it isn't what Jund once was and what Delver currently is. It really has no reason to be weakened. If anything Dig Through Time was what Scapeshift and Twin needed to not get pushed out of the meta.
Banning Treasure Cruise is correct. Unbanning Ancestral Vision is also correct. But Preordain is much more powerful and format warping than Dig Through Time can or will ever be. Dig comes nowhere close to being a problem. Blue is more required in red burn decks than red now, and a blue splash is beyond required now for any jund/junk/rock build. That's all on cruise. Cards that are also completely worth unbanning include BBE, Sword of the Meek and Golgari Mockery of the Banlist-Troll.

Maybe if this were a 5/5 for 5? Eh? The effect is cool though.
It is hella cute though.

To the right.
