I made this with a bit of a starter budget in mind, but it should play well. Here's hoping you have many opportunities to draft it with friends locally. Hopefully you'll think of me when you do.

The basic archetypes are rooted in either wedges or shards.
wub: Reanimator (Artifact specialty)
wug: Flicker/Cycle
ubr: Spellslinger
rgb: Sacrifice/Aristocrats
rgw: Heroic/Go Wide
wbr: Equipment/Tokens
rug: Value Creatures
wbg: Outlast
bug: Self-Mill
wur: Prowess

You can also find simpler and more streamlined synergies in 2-color pairs and a possible 5 color archetype centered around Niv-Mizzet Reborn.

I tried to keep everything relatively balanced, but it's likely there's something(s) that are unbalanced. Tweaking is the best way to do Cube: you slowly tailor it over time to better suit your wants and needs and for balance.
