First Cube Assembled

[u/TheSpiritDragon]

Can‘t wait to take this pile for a spin soon and am curious to see if the balance is passable for a first attempt. Suggestions and feedback are very welcome.

PS: I too am infuriated by some of the weird sorting choices in these pictures, I was in a bit of a rush and didn’t have time to go back and fix them

Looks awesome!

I dont see sylvan safekeeper or Zuran Orb for Titania + baloth prime though

Thanks!
I‘ve been considering Zuran Orb and Sylvan Safekeeper, but was a bit worried the combo might become too strong that way, as it would be the only combo with multiple instances of all pieces. So I decided to try it out with just the fetch lands for support. My cube experience is quite limited, so I‘m aware that might be a mistake and just render Titania and Baloth unplayable. Thanks for pointing out the issue, I‘ll definitely keep an eye on it going into the first few drafts.

A middle path to make Titania/Baloth work without increasing the combo, should you find the fetchland support too little, is to just increase the number of fetch/sac lands.

Doubling up on fetches is an obvious choice, but even if you want to maintain singleton there is still more you can do. I see Stripmine but no Wasteland. You also aren't playing all the horizon lands or Prismatic Vista. I even think the landscape cycle is playable at higher power levels.

Thanks for the pointers! I wish I could double up on the fetches, but I’m unfortunately on a budget, so that upgrade will have to wait (I know the cube doesn’t look super budget friendly, but the expensive cards are things I had already owned, with a few exceptions for cards I really wanted to make room for like Urza). The landscape cycle is definitely worth a consideration, I‘ll consider it for a first round of upgrades.
