Cumly Cube
8 months 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:
- Artifact Mutation: too powerful
- Aura Mutation: too powerful
- Captain Sisay: too powerful
- Chromatic Lantern: mana fixing should not be this easy
- Druid of the Anima: too obvious a choice of Cumly
- Endbringer: too powerful in multiplayer
- Explosive Vegetation: mana fixing should not be this easy
- Firemind Vessel: mana fixing should not be this easy
- Gilded Goose: too obvious a choice of Cumly
- Gilded Lotus
: too much ramp
- Glissa Sunseeker: too hateful against artifact decks
- Growth Spasm: too much ramp
- Growth Spiral: too much ramp
- Jetmir, Nexus of Revels: too obvious a choice of Cumly
- Joiner Adept: too obvious a choice of Cumly
- Karakas: too powerful
- Library of Alexandria: too powerful
- Muldrotha, the Gravetide: too powerful
- 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:
- Afterlife Insurance: supports the Spirit creature type and instant synergies
- Arcane Encyclopedia: supports artifact decks
- Court of Ardenvale: the monarch is now supported more heavily in Cumly Cube
- Eldrazi Confluence: supports Eldrazi decks
- Fiend Hunter: supports the Human creature type
- Horizon of Progress: a utility land to help with mana fixing
- Moira, Urborg Haunt: supports the Spirit creature type and graveyard synergies
- Palace Sentinels: the monarch is now supported more heavily in Cumly Cube, and supports the Human creature type
- Papalymo Totolymo: supports the Dwarf creature type and noncreature synergies
- Refocus: supports instant synergies
- Rile: supports instant synergies and works well with Dinosaurs
- Sage of Hours: supports the Human creature type and +1/+1 counter decks
- Secluded Courtyard: encourages creature synergies
- Sigarda, Champion of Light: supports the Angel creature type and the Human creature type
- Staunch Throneguard: the monarch is now supported more heavily in Cumly Cube, and supports the Construct creature type
- Thassa's Ire: supports enchantment decks and can do some very powerful things with certain creatures
- The Golden Throne: supports sacrifice decks and facilitates possible great comebacks
- Three Tree City: encourages creature synergies
- Wizard's Rockets: a utility artifact to help with mana fixing

Elsa but She Can't Let it Go

Might I suggest a Ghostly Prison (or maybe also a Teferi's Moat for some more pillow fort protection.
Other ways to get taps in are Thassa's Ire, Puppet Strings, Staff of Domination, and some tricks with an Isochron Scepter. Some cards to use with the Scepter would be Psychic Puppetry and Twiddle as well as many of the ones you have already in your deck list. If you used Dream's Grip you can entwine with the Scepter (as well as kick cards).

Get yourself an Esper Panorama to help fix your lands, and maybe a Manalith if you think you need more mana rocks.
For tapping/untapping, consider a Thassa's Ire , which, though it costs more mana to tap/untap than Freed from the Real , it doesn't attach to the creature, so isn't destroyed if Merieke is destroyed/bounced/exiled. You may also want (or maybe not) a Village Bell-Ringer if you want to surprise-flash-uptap to give Merieke (and your other tapped guys) the ability to re-tap and cause mayhem at instant speed.
What are you win conditions? You've got a very controlly build, but how are you going to reduce opponent's health to 0 if they are also playing control, like a Mill or lifegain build? Also, with Detection Tower being your only way through Hexproof/Shroud, you may need to consider more ways to allow Merieke through those barriers.
You may also need to deal with threats before they hit the battlefield--Mereike doesn't protect you against ETB effects, and some of those can be pretty bad--so getting yourself some cards that allow you to selectively remove bad threats from your opponents' hands might give you the edge. Plus, apart from Counterspell and Dissolve , how can you stop enchantments and artifacts with ETB effects from hitting the battlefield? Fortunately, Esper does this kind of control best. Maybe playtest with things like Tidehollow Sculler , Sin Collector , and/or Vizkopa Confessor (this last guy is really nice because Extort will help you get that life back while draining everyone's health--stupidly powerful in a 4-player game). There are other cards that do this too but I'm not remembering them--you have lots of options, especially in Dimir ( Thought Erasure comes to mind, and I thought there was a creature from Guilds of Ravnica that did the same thing but I can't find it atm).
Happy gaming!!!

Turn 2 Freed from the Real
8 years ago
Cerulean Wisps? It cantrips, and it can power out a little bigger spell. Refocus doesn't seem as good- its a poor Manamorphose at best. Ornamental Courage might work as bolt protection. Second Wind is interesting in that it can power out quite a large spell the turn after its played, but it isn't a 'go infinte' option. Thassa's Ire is interesting in that it isn't an aura, but the mana requirement makes it hard to work with. I've never made Thousand-Year Elixir work.

Thank you Ravenrose for the suggestions. I'm glad you like the flavour :) I will definetly find a place for Vortex Elemental in the deck. Thassa's Ire looks to be a quite good defense against early threats as well!
Since I like doing somewhat of a theme in my decks, your other suggestions is on point in regards to the flavour of the deck. But most of my playgroup tend to play some pretty well tuned decks, And I feel hard pressed to add lackluster cards in terms of power level just to fit the theme. I do like the suggestions nonetheless!
