MTG Salvation

Yeah, obviously he's still a pretty bad topdeck lategame, But most manadorks are. In more aggressive Golgari or Gruul builds you can keep some really high-risk hands, where the Hedron functions as a land when you need it or extra ramp when you don't.

I have added the Tangled Florahedron and Bala Ged Recovery, and so far I have been impressed with both of them. The aforementioned smoother mulliganing decisions are the real deal, they actually allow you not to be hit by manascrew or flood as hard, which is really good. I'm not too sure about the others, but some of them seem okay. (Blackbloom Rogue and Akoum Warrior, mostly)

I, too am running both Lore Drakkis and Necropanther as hybrids, because I expect them to be ran in decks not utilising both colours.

Essence of the Wild, Pack Rat and Mist-Syndicate Naga are pretty fun as well.

It's a single-use Blast Zone for 0, if you have a Blast Zone in play.

Villainous Wealth wants to know your location.

So for commander you'd have to choose creature. Weird.

Something that has yet to occur in my peasant cube is Tandem Lookout+Syr Konrad the Grim and Sphinx's Tutelage. Any draw triggers a mill, which might trigger Konrad, which triggers another draw... If you can get the pieces, it seems nuts, and those cards are already good on their own, too.

First of all, welcome!

Secondly, did you exclude the listed cards based on price or power level? I'm guessing power level, since you do run some other expensive cards. I think FoW and Demonic Tutor are both actually fine, because the best you're going to tutor for is an uncommon, and the best you'll FoW is an uncommon as well. Not to say uncs are by definition weak, but you won't get combo's that're too degenerate.

Furthermore, a lot of people here have found Loxodon Warhammer and Behemoth Sledge to be extremely strong cards, and I myself have banned them from my cube, since they tend to make games very one-sided.

Also, whilst not THE most important bit, I'd try to balance your guilds, as they are a bit unbalanced now. Most people here use a different system for Hybrids, where they count hybrids as half a card of each colour. So, for example, Kitchen Finks would take up half a green and half a white slot, so with a Kitchen Finks and a Dryad Militant you'd fill up a green and a white slot. This because of the fact that both Kitchen Finks and Militant can be played in non-Selesnya G and W decks.

Other than that, you just have to test a lot to see what works for you and your friends.

What do you guys think of Pharika's Libation? It seems like an Abrade-esque card to me, in that it is always relevant.

I think Weaver of Destiny is a solid card. I especially see it as a solid card in GWx, because that deck tends to run an above average number of enchantments (O-ring variants, usually)

I really like Anax. It only takes 1 anthem or equipment to make most of the red 2-drops 4 power, and things like Bloodrage Brawler and Flametongue Kavu have 4 power to start with, so they leave 2 tokens.

Hooray, more Exploration effects for Lord Windgrace decks! And this one fixes mana as well!

Not only does it fix, it also makes Valakut and Cabal Coffers a bit better. I like it a lot and will definitely pick up a copy.

It's an Entombing snake! Neat. I can think of a few EDH decks that might want this.

True, it is a bit more like a 2 or 3 for 1 then a true sweeper. But you shouldn't discount the thing, even if in most games, it just sits there. There's gonna be games where you can do it for 2 or 1 and nab a couple mana rocks or something, and the great thing is that it can usually be tutored for should the need arise. And even if you don't activate it, it's still a land, so it still taps for mana.
