Between Kytheon, Hero of Akros, Dauntless Bodyguard, and Selfless Spirit early-game indestructibility (or granting it) seems to be a much bigger thing in White decks. It's definitely a trend to watch out for and it places even more of a premium on exile effects as opposed to destroying.
I ran Daze for quite a while but it just wasnt performing as consistently as i would have hoped for 360 material. I think its a great option for bigger cubes though.
this is the only fuctional reprint i allow in my cube and I only run one. Llanowar and Fyndhorn. Very excited to get my full art llanowars for the cube. going to look awesome.
i run it as well and have had similar experiences with it feeling pretty normal. Its one of the first on the chopping block for red burn spells for me.
I havent run it because I limit my planes walkers to 1 per colour, but it does have some nice uses. killing things like hangarback walker is big time, and even getting an early flip on thing in the ice can change the outcome of the game.
I dont like the way planeswalkers can change the game so dramatically and I have less fun when I play other cubes that have a really high planeswalker density. It feels great killing their planeswalker and when they drop two or three more in the next turns it takes that satisfaction away.
Looking to add one of the following black twos. Seems like asylum visitor is the most popular looking at cube lists. if it is your main choice can you share some detail about how often it triggers, etc.
I don't play Declaration in stone. I dont like that its sorcery, and i dont like that it gives clues. plus being a type of token that i would have to have im not a fan of. same reason i dont run tireless tracker.
There are lots of cards I always liked that i have been sad to cut over the years. but, since i have cut them i cant even remember a single one right now.
dont forget surprise archangel avacyn as well!
