For those in my playgroup that are interested in discussion of this cube, I've added a fairly extensive Maybeboard of some cards that I think may be worth trying. Some may be one offs, but others should come as a package, like specific combos or deck archetypes. What I may end up doing after we experiment is rotating some archetypes in and out to keep things fresh. Let me know if you have any other suggestions for cards worth discussing.
