Missed an update.
So this time, I've looked at doing things a little differently. I set up another cube https://cubecobra.com/cube/overview/FutureFutureCube which held all the changes. I made all my changes in that version and kept my normal one intact. This gave me a lot more freedom (mentally) to experiment and make sweeping changes. I have a save point to reset to when I wasn't happy with something and I was able to make cuts and additions with the knowledge that I always had a great cube in my back pocket.
With that plan, I set aside 4 months to test changed and playtested a lot of the changes. I'm making some hard cuts for sure, but the 'Compare' function in cube cobra allowed me to quickly compare the cubes and see if I felt happy with what I was giving up. There are a handful of cards I'm giving up that I wish were in the cube:
Myth Realized
Treachery
Sandwurm Convergence
Zirda, the Dawnwaker
as well as Shadowspear, which I couldn't squeeze it.
I'm really excited about this cube update. I have a lot of custom cards I've playtested a great deal as well as a lot of cool new lines and combos. Aggro is still absolutely strong, but there are a lot more ways to make cool combos. Messed around with a Paradox Engine deck recently that was sweet. Probably needed something like Jace, Vryn's Prodigy, Currency Converter or a Merfolk Looter.
Maybe I can look at adding something like Rona, Herald of Invasion.
Well, this is what the cube looks like for the next 4 months!
Cheers
Cards I'm 100% of changing:
Portable Hole -> Leyline Binding
Sower of Temptation -> Subtlety
Teferi, Temporal Pilgrim -> Narset, Parter of Veils
Flusterstorm -> Mana Leak
Inquisition of Kozilek -> Ego Drain
Dreadhorde Arcanist -> Oliphaunt
Cards I'm pretty sure I want to change:
Myth Realized -> Eagles of the North
Faerie Mastermind -> Lorien Revealed
Joraga Treespeaker -> Bone Sabres+
Cards I think may get changed:
Yoshimaru, Ever Faithful -> Blade Splicer
Liliana, the Last Hope -> Troll of Khazad-dum
Some Inclusions I would love to see:
+Otharri, Suns' Glory
+Porcelain Legionnaire
+March of Swirling Mist
+Chart a Course
+Lutri, the Spellchaser
+Phyrexian Dreadnought
Cards I want to cut but not sure what to replace with:
-Kroxa, Titan of Death's Hunger
Flusterstorm feels quite a bit out of place. So I think that could be replaced with Mana Leak.
Sower of Temptation has been underperforming and probably could be replaced with Subtlety.
