trippy_mcfly on Cumly Cube

1 week 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 Lotus: 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

legendofa on What Commander/cards Should I Use?

1 year ago

To make sure I understand what you're looking for, it's sort of a reanimator/sacrifice hybrid? Discard big creatures, bring them back, and then sacrifice them again so they can be reanimated again?

There aren't too many cards that let you repeatedly bring big creatures from the graveyard to the battlefield, and Sheoldred, Whispering One is one of the best. If you haven't looked in this direction already, I suggest filling out your deck with smaller, self-recursive creatures like Reassembling Skeleton, Gravecrawler, Bloodghast, Forsaken Miner, Bloodsoaked Champion, or Nether Traitor.

Some other possible commanders are Whisper, Blood Liturgist (if you can protect her for a turn), Drana, the Last Bloodchief (reanimates nonlegendaries only), and Moira, Urborg Haunt (good for immediate sac + reanimate). I would use the commander slot for the big reanimator effect so you can access it reliably.

Bloodghast and Nether Traitor efficient Ayara triggers.

Body Snatcher decent Ayara fodder.

Moira, Urborg Haunt sweet synergy.
