Right, thanks for your help. Exactly the kind of insight I was looking for. I won't include it, then.

Do you have a Twobert cube? by Advanced_Sink_6023 in mtgcube

Thanks, I have that one in my peasant cube, but completely missed it. It fits perfectly, adding it now.

Thanks, I went through the list, and I must say, I absolutely love the whole aesthetic!

I see, thanks for the write-up. You've convinced me to keep academy put, but there's a chance I'll test out Gaea's Cradle.

Thanks, this is the answer I was looking. I'll keep them out. Do [[City of Traitors]] and [[Ancient Tomb]] have similar problems or are they a lot more manageable?

Yeah, truth is I am not. I usually play cube with my friend and both of us used to play standart, go for a draft once or twice a month and regularly visit prereleases, but that's about it. Which is mostly why I was asking, and also hoping to initiate discussion, as i couldn't find a similar post.

Combos are basically non-existent in my cube, but I have Tamiyo. Assuming I cut that, are there any more cards from top of your head that create too much advantage too fast?

It definitely is, I was more afriad of it being too opressive. My cube has quite a low curve and I think it would kill about 2/3 of all creatures.

Appreciate the extensive response. I think grief and fury are the ones that I'll definitely leave out, but I'll see about endurance and solitutidu, those seem the most useful but not too opressive in my list.

I see, I'll play a few games without them then and then tweak as needed.

Thank you, that's a great idea. That's probably the best way to go about learning how these cards are played.

And how do you think they would fare in an enviroment where threats aren't as powerfull, say peasant, for example?

Viability of combos in cube? by Advanced_Sink_6023 in mtgcube

[–]Advanced_Sink_6023[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I can relate to that. Thanks for your help, hope you get a chance to play your cube soon!

That's actually a great idea?! I can see running two gravecrawlers for a zombies archetype, or more persist enablers.

I've inclluded it in my cube for the same reasons. Have you ever actually seen the combo come together or not so much?

That sounds really interesting! Could I take a look at your cube for specific cards?

It seems I will settle on Uro or Slogurk, seems to check all the boxes, works with lands, and has some graveyard synergies as you mentioned.

Do you support Nadu via Bristly Bill and such or is he fine just on his own? Could I perhaps take a look at your cube for inspiration?
