Hello! This cube has been a longtime experiment I've had cooking. I loved the Madness + Graveyard focus of Ultimate Masters and wanted to experience something like that again. Not exactly the same, but something with a very similar feel. A heavily graveyard-focused environment without everything centering around the graveyard. To that end, I've created something with a bunch of subarchetypes for players to find among the macro-archetype pillars:

Spells


ubrg
Instants, sorceries, and Reckless Wurms

Graveyard


wubrg
Victory from death

  • Reanimate creatures & artifacts in w
  • Generate value by filling your graveyard, such as a massive Spider Spawning
  • Generate value by consuming your graveyard, such as with Murktide Regent
  • Loop cards from your graveyard, or even loop your graveyard itself!

Artifacts


wurc
Aggression with or without the graveyard

  • Affinity+Modular aggro in rw
  • Generate value over time in wu
  • Sacrifice artifacts in br

Notes for drafters

  • Do note that this cube is not singleton. Several staples are duplicated, including irreplaceable payoffs like Rise from the Tides and Spider Spawning, enablers like the artifact dual lands and discard outlets, and Fiery Temper (the only card which appears three times).
  • There is intentionally a limited amount of graveyard hate and library recursion. It's there if you're looking for it, but you're not guaranteed to get it, and it's not going to be as easy as Relic of Progenitus or Elixir of Immortality.
  • There aren't too many ways to permanently answer large creatures outside of white and black, and there are almost no ways to sweep the battlefield.
  • I am very, very interested in getting feedback, deck pictures, and thoughts. Basically, I'm always happy to talk about or listen about this cube. This is an experiment that will always be going through iterations.
  • And, of course, thank you so much for taking the time to look over my cube!
