Archaeology

This one was neat, I tried to go with a "mystical archeology" theme, adding cards with history in MTG, while simultaneously adding cards that benefit from Emry simply existing.

Creatures
1x Arcbound Ravager
1x Artificer's Assistant
1x Emry, Lurker of the Loch
1x Mirran Spy
1x Ornithopter
1x Riddlesmith

Instants
1x Alchemist's Retrieval
1x Stoic Rebuttal

Artifacts
1x Aether Spellbomb
1x Mind Stone
1x The Underworld Cookbook

Lands
1x Buried Ruin

Well-Read

Well, well, well-read, what have we here? A neat little pack with a draw theme going on! I improved on the draw theme, added some flavor wins, and spent way too long looking at blue cantrips. Enjoy!

Creatures
1x Chasm Skulker
1x Faerie Vandal
1x Laboratory Maniac
1x Minn, Wily Illusionist
1x Oneirophage
1x Suspicious Bookcase

Enchantments
1x Cartouche of Knowledge
1x Hard Cover
1x Ominous Seas
1x Rhystic Study

Wizards

This one was super fun to make and I decided to go for a certain theme in addition to wizards to make it a little spooky and bring the cards together. Spellcasting matters in this pack and you have plenty of ways to plan accordingly.

Creatures
1x Delver of secrets
1x Docent of Perfection
1x Thing in the Ice
1x Thought Courier
1x Windrider Wizard
1x Wingcrafter

Instants

1x Stream of Consciousness
1x Unsubstantiate
1x Wizard's Retort

Sorceries
1x Windfall
1x Winged Words

Liliana

This pack seemed fairly disjointed in its original form, so I did my best to shift it to pure sacrificial necromancy. Liliana, Death's Majesty let's you create targets to be sacrificed, while allowing you to reanimate cards like Dreadfeast Demon to secure the win.

Creatures
1x Arisen Gorgon
1x Dreadfeast Demon
1x Liliana's Devotee
1x Liliana's Scrounger
1x Liliana's Steward
1x Nested Shambler
1x Reassembling Skeleton

Planeswalker
1x Liliana, Death's Majesty

Sorceries
1x Altar's Reap
1x Cemetery Recruitment
1x Spark Harvest

Enchantments
1x Curse of Shallow Graves

Phyrexian

This pack was long in the making. I toyed around with infect and decided it was best left out of this cube. There are more honorable ways to win. I settled on a pack that balances life to get ahead, and builds on it's creatures to clinch the win.

Creatures
1x Evolved Sleeper
1x Gix, Yawgmoth Praetor
1x Grimdancer
1x Gurgling Anointer
1x Myr Sire
1x Phyrexian Gargantua
1x Phyrexian Rager
1x Vault Skirge

Instants
1x Village Rites

Sorceries
1x Bone Shards

Artifacts
1x Culling Dais

Enchantments
1x Phyrexian Reclamation

Discarding

Tinybones is one of my favorite cards to come out of Jumpstart and I was excited to improve upon his pack. I may have made the initial list a little strong, so it will likely have to be revisited in the future.

Creatures
1x Burglar Rat
1x Fell Specter
1x Phyrexian Rager
1x Tinybones, Trinket Thief
1x Wight of Precinct Six

Sorceries
1x Duress
1x Gruesome Encore
1x Hymn to Tourach
1x Pilfer
1x Thoughtseize
1x Vicious Rumors

Enchantments
1x Shrieking Affliciton

Rogues

One of my favorite underrated tribes in Magic are rogues. They have such a great playstyle to them that really rewards cheap tricks and deft handiwork to get ahead. I decided to forgo multiple rares with this one and include Bitterblossom instead. It's a strong card and while not the only thing that can help this pack succeed, it is very powerful, esp in a limited environment.

Creatures
1x Aetherborn Marauder
1x Audacious Thief
1x Bane Alley Blackguard
1x Masked Blackguard
1x Nocturnal Feeder
1x Oona's Blackguard
1x Undercity Informer

Instants
1x Murder

Sorceries
1x Morsel Theft

Artifacts
1x Rogue's Gloves

Enchantments
1x Bitterblossom

Lands
1x Rogue's Passage

Witchcraft

This was super fun to make! Most of it was kept the same but I wanted to add The Underworld Cookbook and some witchy minions to the mix.

Creatures
1x Black Cat
1x Bogbrew Witch
2x Festering Newt
1x Gingerbrute
1x Tempting Witch
1x Witch of the Moors

Sorceries
1x Call to the Netherworld
1x Foreboding Fruit

Artifacts
1x Bubbling Cauldron
1x The Underworld Cookbook

Minions

This was an interesting one to try and balance. I initially included Endrek Sahr but forgot about Phyrexian Tower. So Sengir Autocrat makes an appearance!

Creatures
2x Doomed Dissenter
1x Drainpipe Vermin
1x Kels, Fight Fixer
1x Liliana's Devotee
1x Nocturnal Feeder
1x Sengir Autocrat
1x Viscera Seer

This pack was pretty much complete! Just wanted to add a few other cards to improve things.

Creatures
1x Crow of Dark Tidings
1x Goremand
1x Gravecrawler
1x Morkrut Behemoth
1x Tithebearer Giant
1x Tormod, the Desecrator

Sorceries
1x Bone Shards
1x Funeral Rites
1x Reanimate
1x Victimize

Spooky

This pack was fun to build! Just a few spooky bois and some sacrifice support and you're good to go!

Creatures
1x Battlefly Swarm
1x Caged Zombie
1x Crypt Lurker
1x Kindly Stranger
1x Ogre Slumlord
1x Sanitarium Skeleton

Sorceries
1x Bone Shards

Artifacts
1x Malefic Scythe

Enchantments
1x Curse of Disturbance
1x Dictate of Erebos

Vampires

This pack felt like there was a lot of potential left unreached. The four packs danced around lifelink without actually fully supporting it. I did so here in a way that (hopefully) doesn't make the pack overpowered. Sorry Vito.

Creatures
1x Blood Artist
1x Bloodbond Vampire
1x Cutthroat Contender
1x Gifted Aetherborn
1x Vampire Lacerator
1x Vampire Nighthawk
1x Vampire Nocturnus

Instants
1x Go for the Throat
1x Victim of Night

Sorceries
1x Sign in Blood

Enchantments
1x Eternal Thirst
1x Exquisite Blood

Chandra

This one was tough. I thought about keeping the original pack much the same, but this boosted format requires a bit lower curve to keep up with others. Ergo, I replaced a decent Chandra with one of similar caliber in Chandra, Dressed to Kill. This should lower the curve and lend itself to a more sustainable burn.

Creatures
1x Chandra's Magmutt
1x Chandra's Phoenix
1x Chandra's Pyreling
2x Young Pyromancer

Planeswalkers
1x Chandra, Dressed to Kill

Instants
1x Chandra's Pyrohelix
1x Incinerate
1x Play With Fire

Sorceries
1x Cathartic Reunion
1x Incendiary Flow
1x Flames of the Firebrand

Seismic

This one was a tough nut to crack and I went through several iterations before landing on the jankiest one yet. The original pack had no core theme other than it looked "volcanic." To help the theme, I tried for mountains matter and landfall triggers, with a visit from our favorite friend, Koth of the Hammer! There are hardly any creatures, so the tradeoff to having a mythic planeswalker in a non-planeswalker pack is that you'll be hard-pressed to protect him.

Creatures
1x Akoum Hellhound
1x Embodiment of Fury
1x Seismic Elemental
1x Valakut Predator

Planeswalkers
1x Koth of the Hammer

Instants
1x Magma Jet
1x Searing Blaze

Sorceries
1x Cleansing Wildfire
1x Spitting Earth

Artifacts
1x Slab Hammer

Enchantments
1x Retreat to Valakut

Lands
1x Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle

Dragons

This was a bit tricky, as I wasn't sure which path to take. The base dragons pack was fairly decent, but there were some stylistic choices I didn't enjoy. So I picked ETB triggers and added cards like Dragon Tempest to support them.

Creatures
1x Archwing Dragon
1x Dragon Hatchling
1x Dragon Whelp
1x Dragonspeaker Shaman
1x Ganax, Astral Hunter
1x Lathliss, Dragon Queen
1x Young Red Dragon

Instants
1x Draconic Roar
1x Dragon's Fire
1x Sarkhan's Triumph

Sorceries
1x Dragon Fodder

Enchantments
1x Dragon Tempest

Lightning

This may be a shocker, but WOTC put actual thought into this pack! I was a little hard-pressed to add much more other than "oh lets upgrade this to have a bolt regardless of it's rares." Nevertheless, we now have a synergy present with Lightning Phoenix and Lightning Crafter. This pack originally had no sustain, well, now it kinda does.

Creatures
1x Lightning Crafter
1x Lightning Phoenix
2x Lightning Visionary
1x Living Lightning
1x Weaver of Lightning

Instants
1x Lightning Axe
1x Lightning Bolt
1x Lightning Strike
1x Radiating Lightning

Sorceries
1x Arc Lightning
1x Chain Lightning

Minotaurs

This deck had hardly anything to change. Mono-red minotaurs aren't the most fleshed out, so I just improved one or two cards for survivability.

Creatures
1x Bloodrage Brawler
1x Bull-Rush Bruiser
1x Coalition Warbrute
1x Lightning Visionary
1x Minotaur Skullcleaver
1x Rageblood Shaman
1x Sethron, Hurloon General
1x Skophos Reaver

Instants
1x Furious Bellow
1x Soul Sear

Sorceries
1x Flurry of Horns

Artifacts
1x Vorrac Battlehorns

Devilish

I liked the route the original pack explored in extra draw with downside, and I wanted to add further support here. I also like devil tokens as a concept, and there isn't much good support for them. Ergo, to sate both ends, I added Geier Reach Sanitarium and Tibalt, Rakish Instigator to the pack while keeping the rest much the same. Along with the others, we will see if adding additional lands does not hurt the packs, or inadvertently strengthen them.

Creatures
1x Chained Brute
1x Forge Devil
1x Hobblefiend
1x Spiteful Prankster
1x Tibalt's Rager
1x Torch Fiend
1x Zurzoth, Chaos Rider

Planeswalkers
1x Tibalt, Rakish Instigator

Instants
1x Dance with Devils

Sorceries
1x Burn Down the House

Enchantments
1x Cavalcade of Calamity

Lands
1x Geier Reach Sanitarium

GOBLINSSSSSSS!!!!

If it wasn't obvious, I love goblins. And who else should have the honor of leading this pack of ferocious fools than Krenko, Mob Boss himself! It takes a few of the cards from the original pack and upgrades the rest! You're on a knife's edge here though because if you send out your waves and don't kill them quickly, you'll be hurting for power.

Creatures
1x Beetleback Chief
1x Goblin Instigator
1x Goblin Sledder
1x Goblin Wardriver
1x Krenko, Mob Boss
1x Skirk Prospector

Sorceries
1x Dragon Fodder
1x Goblin Grenade
1x Krenko's Command

Enchantments
1x Goblin Bombardment
1x Impact Tremors
1x Quest for the Goblin Lord
