I've been thinking on how to bolster white creatures while staying within my needless and arbitrary rules. I think I got it this time, but may still have to change things up. I really like Wild Aesthir, but know that it isn't that great even though the pump is nice. Blinking Spirit is also another one that has a good ability, but rarely applies pressure except in control situations. I may include more low casting cost white at the expense of other choices in white, or even other colours.
I'm going to play-test this for a bit before I make any new changes. To date, I think there have been 2 '8 player drafts' as well as greater than 40 '4 player Multiplayer Sealed/Drafts'.
If anyone has any questions regarding choices in the cube, please ask.
So, uh, I traded a Timetwister for a The Tabernacle at Pendrell Vale. It was a weird trade for me, but satisfying nonetheless. So I decided to shove a Tabernacle in the cube. I think it works, and replaces an Energy Arc. I think I have to put some faster creatures in the cube. Also, I'm coming around to the idea of Repentant Blacksmith, regardless of "protection from red". There are some other changes coming once I get an order I'm waiting for in the mail.
Any suggestions? I like my cube so far, but it does suffer from stalled board state.
I'm on a roll! Slightly more agro slant to this update. Drafna's provides some redundancy and COP: Artifacts helps make artifacts a little less good. Jacques hadn't been played in a long time, so I removed it. I'm looking for a BETA copy of Jayemdae Tome, if anyone wants to trade me to put in my cube.
