trippy_mcfly on Cumly Cube

1 month ago

Introducing Cumly Cube 1.4.1! 4 months ago, Cumly Cube 1.4 was released. This was the final major update. As promised, minor tweaks would continue, both to fix any remaining imbalances and keep the card pool fresh. The following 19 swaps should help remove some dominant strategies, specifically by curtailing the power of the “green slop” archetype. The additions also add a lot of new excitement to the cube in only 19 cards; there are multiple cards that introduce the monarch into the game, making this a more central mechanic of Cumly Cube, and there is one card that can be used as a niche combo finish with a Cumly Cube staple.

Here are the changes, provided with brief justifications:

REMOVED:

  1. Artifact Mutation: too powerful
  2. Aura Mutation: too powerful
  3. Captain Sisay: too powerful
  4. Chromatic Lantern: mana fixing should not be this easy
  5. Druid of the Anima: too obvious a choice of Cumly
  6. Endbringer: too powerful in multiplayer
  7. Explosive Vegetation: mana fixing should not be this easy
  8. Firemind Vessel: mana fixing should not be this easy
  9. Gilded Goose: too obvious a choice of Cumly
  10. Gilded Lotusfoil: too much ramp
  11. Glissa Sunseeker: too hateful against artifact decks
  12. Growth Spasm: too much ramp
  13. Growth Spiral: too much ramp
  14. Jetmir, Nexus of Revels: too obvious a choice of Cumly
  15. Joiner Adept: too obvious a choice of Cumly
  16. Karakas: too powerful
  17. Library of Alexandria: too powerful
  18. Muldrotha, the Gravetide: too powerful
  19. Worldfire: an iconic Cumly Cube card, but sadly too unbalanced due to the ability to float mana and cast your Cumly after, almost certainly winning the game. This strategy still exists with Apocalypse, but is less of a guarantee now

ADDED:

  1. Afterlife Insurance: supports the Spirit creature type and instant synergies
  2. Arcane Encyclopedia: supports artifact decks
  3. Court of Ardenvale: the monarch is now supported more heavily in Cumly Cube
  4. Eldrazi Confluence: supports Eldrazi decks
  5. Fiend Hunter: supports the Human creature type
  6. Horizon of Progress: a utility land to help with mana fixing
  7. Moira, Urborg Haunt: supports the Spirit creature type and graveyard synergies
  8. Palace Sentinels: the monarch is now supported more heavily in Cumly Cube, and supports the Human creature type
  9. Papalymo Totolymo: supports the Dwarf creature type and noncreature synergies
  10. Refocus: supports instant synergies
  11. Rile: supports instant synergies and works well with Dinosaurs
  12. Sage of Hours: supports the Human creature type and +1/+1 counter decks
  13. Secluded Courtyard: encourages creature synergies
  14. Sigarda, Champion of Light: supports the Angel creature type and the Human creature type
  15. Staunch Throneguard: the monarch is now supported more heavily in Cumly Cube, and supports the Construct creature type
  16. Thassa's Ire: supports enchantment decks and can do some very powerful things with certain creatures
  17. The Golden Throne: supports sacrifice decks and facilitates possible great comebacks
  18. Three Tree City: encourages creature synergies
  19. Wizard's Rockets: a utility artifact to help with mana fixing

nuperokaso Thanks for your comment. 1. I'll cut the borderposts and include Druid of the Anima and Arcane Sanctum soon.

  1. Elspeth, Knight-Errant always seemed to be too slow. But maybe i'll give it a try and cut 1 Rafiq of the Many and 1 Battlegrace Angel.

  2. I oftend use Call to Heel to protect one of my dudes from mass removal, but maybe a direct Cancel is a better option.

  3. Year, the lack of draw is one of the biggest problems of the deck. Sages of the Anima or Soul's Majesty are two slow. Maybe Vedalken Heretic can solve it?

I also think about Wall of Reverence or Jhessian Infiltrator.

Elf of Ancient Memory

Creature - Elf Cleric

Even the long-lived elves have elders, who call upon magic forgotten by all but the Immortals. What is outdated superstition for others is a way of life for them.

1/2

I tried to make a reasonably flavorful card to fill in the gap between Urborg Elf, Rattleclaw Mystic, Noble Hierarch, Ignoble Hierarch, and Druid of the Anima.

Create a non-humanoid Noble.

From your current list i’d suggest ditching:

  • both Godsire and Meglonoth. They’re not needed now that you have a bunch of ways to spam out Emrakul.

  • all of the Druid of the Anima. You have enough mana dorks and this one is quite slow.

  • i’d go down to 21 lands. Your curve is super low now, and you have a good number of dorks, so this should be an ideal number. From that 21, i’d suggest running some plains so you can cast Vizier. I’d also suggest running a single copy of Gavony Township, to help you if the game goes long.

That gives you 10 free card slots, which i’d suggest adding in the following:

CaptCreek on Jetmir, Nexus of the Swarm

Love the list, but I think you should definitely add in more mana dorks instead your land ramp and signets (You can keep rampant growth and farseek probably). We want to have as many creatures as possible, so every card in our deck that isn't a creature is reducing our synergy by a lot. Llanowar Elves, Fyndhorn Elves, Avacyn's Pilgrim, Elvish Mystic, Druid of the Anima and any other dork you'd want to run not only ramp us even more, but add to our creature count and become extra damage for us later in the game.

Artifact Mutation and Pest Infestation are awesome and would go well with your aura mutation that's already in the list.

See, the problem with specifically me suggesting cuts is that you and I seem to have much different playstyles. I am not big on Planeswalkers and like to keep my mana curve super low to the ground, especially with a mana hungry commander like Marath. I can tell you about objectively strong cards for your mana base though, and I tried to just do that.

If I were pressed and had to make suggestions; for just the first four sorceries I would say both 6-mana Ajanis, a basic Forest, and a basic Plains. For all 12 of my suggestions and in descending order from first card cut to last so that you can take any number and have my suggestions for cuts:

Ajani Unyielding

Forest

Ajani, Valiant Protector

Plains

Woodland Mystic

Zhur-Taa Druid

Domri, Anarch of Bolas

Druid of the Anima

Jiang Yanggu, Wildcrafter

Somberwald Sage

Incubation Druid

Alpine Meadow

Many of these other cuts are also ramp, but that is because your Land+Ramp number is pretty close to what I like after cutting the two Ajanis. Going with sorceries and artifacts will protect you a little better from sweepers since your mana base will be able to survive a Wrath of God and you would be more likely to be able to recover. The artifacts will still leave you weak to Austere Command, but you are less likely to be collateral damage.

Another switch I would just make straight up is Archetype of Aggression in for Aggressive Mammoth in keeping with me liking to keep a mana curve lower.

Hi jlane, welcome to EDH! I take it Marisi is your general? You can designate your general in the Edit page (button on the left) by adding CMDR next to it's name in your list, like so:

1x Marisi, Breaker of the Coil *CMDR*

Marisi is a really interesting general, however I'm not sure the party mechanic suits him that well, or vice versa. Are you heart-set on the deck revolving around party stuff? If yes, Tazri, Beacon of Unity might be a better choice for the general. If you want to build more around Marisi, I'd recommend the following swaps:

I can recommend more if you like. Let me know!
