the downshifts are arena only. so if you really want to stretch your pauper rules, you could just add anything you want and make a "pauper powerlevel cube" i guess.
me personally im kinda inclined to make a "true paupercube" which doesnt allow any cards from a higher rarity at some point. pauper feels more like peasant now, compared to where i started.
i like the sphere cycle as an interesting variation of cycling lands.
hopefully theyll be upgraded to sac only for one colored mana, as 2 seems too slow
i feel guidance lacks a keyword most other cmc1 auras have in addition to the +1+1 and the spot is already taken by Sentinel's Eyes
Greatsword seems just awesome and can get out of hand quite fast. It finally replaced Empyrial Armor in my cube, as it kinda fills the same spot. (growing creatures)
robbers is nice if you support token strategies obviously. I found a bunch of 1/1s do not have enough impact in my regular cube
Are people running Creeping Bloodsucker yet? also, did twitch buy out mtgsalvation or something? weird that you can log in with twitch now
i added it, but havent played my cube(s) since covid lockdowns, because my playgroup turned out paranoid about it and i broke contact with them. my lgs also turned completely mental with glasses between the tables, so it died for me. i also didnt try to fire any xmage games, because it takes hours on end to fill a draft. paupercube is an incredible unwanted format. not even this forum is willing to fire up a game..
i still curate just for fun, but have no real idea what works and what doesnt.
salvation is on twitch/amazon for years already
im not a friend of shaman, therefore not of beast either. creatures need an etb effect to be competitive imo, especially at the top end. cmc6 seems already kinda unplayable anyway. i only run Citanul Woodreaders in that range.

i like Juggernaut and spirit link tho
+Creeping Bloodsucker
lose the flying, but pretty good upgrade nonetheless
-halimar depths
easy swap actually. might reswap my campus duals to karoos as well now.
2nd swap
-peace strider
+Boulderbranch Golem
im gonna fit that
a 3/5 reach trample for 5 is okayish, and the pseudokicker makes it a monster
cant believe Perilous Shadow is still the best shade, thats kinda unexiting
