Balance! —Oct. 20, 2014
I got it back down to 360 cards, and now each mono color has exactly 52 cards, and each dual color has 3 cards.
Woo.

Carnival of Souls , Scornful Egotist , Urza's Miter , Off Balance , Riptide , Dwarven Pony , Shaman's Trance , Stabilizer . Lots of terrible cards if you know where to look for them.

(un)holy VIP of all bad cubes: Accursed Centaur .
And don't you forget the newest literation from Theros block: Mindreaver . It's so bad, it's not even good on curve!

i would avoid cards like Mudhole , Kumano's Blessing , or the cycles that take away landwalk or change the color of spells that have practically a 0% chance of being useful in the draft. even though you'll be drafting terrible cards, people will still be trying to win and will need cards that actually do things to finish a game. if no one ever puts card x in a deck because it does nothing to help win the game, then there is no point in it even being in the draft.
i think it would be awesome to draft terrible cards, but it wouldn't be fun to build a deck and know that some percentage of the cards in it won't have any impact on the game. a bad creature is still a creature, and an overcosted removal spell is still a removal spell. but a spell like Break Open will never help a game to end.

shuflw Yea, they'll be the first I'll probably cut once I hit 360 cards.

this is a sweet idea though. should be pretty skilltesting for players, since there won't be any obvious bombs, you'll have to really judge power levels, and everyone will have to read every card because no one knows wtf Mammoth Harness does. i could see these being long grindy games, though.

Storm Crow and Darksteel Relic , the hockey puck that costs nothing and does even less

Storm Crow is actually completely too strong for this draft. I'm already using Sea Eagle .
