Welcome to my oversized synergy cube! This is a deep and diverse cube, intended to be drafted by 8 players. At 900 cards, less than half of the cube will be represented in any given pod, and archetypes will vary from draft to draft. To mitigate this randomness, packs are semi-seeded to accommodate the variance due to the size of cube. To that same end, my list prioritizes glue and overlapping synergy cards, and eschews generic power outliers or "good stuff". This cube is very friendly to multicolor decks, so each single color is held together by only one major theme. Broad Color Overview: {W}: >>> ### Go Wide <<< <<[[!Usher of the Fallen]] [[!Guardian of New Benalia]] [[!Mirror Entity]]>> {U}: >>> ### Tempo <<< <<[[!Network Disruptor]] [[!Faerie Mastermind]] [[!Nimble Obstructionist]]>> {B}: >>> ### Graveyard <<< <<[[!Gnawing Vermin]] [[!Mire Triton]] [[!Woe Strider]]>> {R}: >>> ### Aggro <<< <<[[!Goblin Guide]] [[!Earthshaker Khenra]] [[!Goblin Rabblemaster]]>> {G}: >>> ### Ramp <<< <<[[!Llanowar Elves]] [[!Paradise Druid]] [[!Rishkar, Peema Renegade]]>> The guilds, shards, and wedges all have their own flavor and archetypes that they tie into, with support and buildarounds in each of the colors they touch. Archetypes Overview: >>> ### Flicker <<< Usually a fliers and flash style deck, it can also be grindy when combined with black. Primary colors {W}{U} <<[[!Soulherder]] [[!Ephemerate]] [[!Ghostly Flicker]]>> Secondary color {B} <<[[!Baleful Strix]] [[!Corpse Knight]] [[!Supernatural Stamina]]>> >>> ### Artifacts <<< Running the gamut from all-in [[Arcbound Ravager]] to [[Rise and Shine]] value decks or [[Puresteel Paladin]] aggro, the artifacts deck is one of the most diverse and reliable archetypes in the cube. Primary Colors {U} <<[[!Sai, Master Thopterist]] [[!Saheeli, the Gifted]] [[!Ethersworn Sphinx]]>> Secondary Colors {W}{R} <<[[!Akiri, Fearless Voyager]] [[!Master Trinketeer]] [[!Shrapnel Blast]]>> >>> ### Enchantments <<< The enchantments deck comes in a few flavors, but it primarily plays with auras and hexproof creatures. Primary Colors {G}{W} <<[[!Sythis, Harvest's Hand]] [[!Light-Paws, Emperor's Voice]] [[!Argothian Enchantress]]>> Secondary Colors {U} <<[[!Brine Comber]] [[!Slippery Bogle]] [[!Invisible Stalker]]>> >>> ### Aristocrats <<< Sacrifice and tokens are at their best in the faster Rakdos shells or the more grindy Orzhov decks. Even Boros aggro decks get value from taking advantageous trades. Primary Colors {B}{R} <<[[!Mayhem Devil]] [[!Carrion Feeder]] [[!Goblin Bombardment]]>> Secondary Colors {W} <<[[!Fleshtaker]] [[!Venerable Warsinger]] [[!Doomed Traveler]]>> >>> ### +1/+1 Counters/Proliferate <<< Growing your team and proliferating can get out of hand quickly in this fast and diverse archetype. Black bringing some -1/-1 counters also adds to the synergistic interactions. Primary Colors {G} <<[[!Renegade Krasis]] [[!Hamza, Guardian of Arashin]] [[!Reyhan, Last of the Abzan]]>> Secondary Colors {W}{B} << [[!Felisa, Fang of Silverquill]] [[!Basri's Lieutenant]] [[!Grim Affliction]]>> >>> ### Heroic <<< The most fun aggro deck in the cube. Pump spells, auras, cantrips. Get in there! Primary Colors {R}{W} <<[[!Anax and Cymede]] [[!Aisha of Sparks and Smoke|093aa76d-2154-4e71-a2bf-461d1afb887b]] [[!Fabled Hero]]>> Secondary Colors {G} <<[[!Dromoka's Command]] [[!Collision // Colossus]] [[!Season of Growth]]>> >>> ### Self-discard/Madness <<< My personal favorite archetype, this is deck can be aggressive, tempo, or hard control. It overlaps with lots of graveyard synergies and unlocks the strongest version of many cards in the cube. Primary Colors {U}{B} <<[[!Lazotep Chancellor]] [[!The Raven Man]] [[!Drake Haven]]>> Secondary Colors {R} <<[[!Rielle, the Everwise]] [[!Rakdos Headliner]] [[!Anje's Ravager]]>> >>> ### Self-Mill/Graveyard <<< A classic midrange deck that is resilient to traditional removal and sweepers, with lots of late-game power. Primary Colors {B}{G} <<[[!Hogaak, Arisen Necropolis]] [[!Gurmag Angler]] [[!Timeless Witness]]>> Secondary Colors {U} <<[[!Master Of Death]] [[!Vilespawn Spider]] [[!Dig Through Time]]>> >>> ### Spells <<< Generally played as a tempo spells deck, you can add black for removal and value. Primary Colors {U}{R} <<[[!Balmor, Battlemage Captain]] [[!Young Pyromancer]] [[!Stormwing Entity]]>> Secondary Colors {B} <<[[!Vohar, Vodalian Desecrator]] [[!Kolaghan's Command]] [[!Sedgemoor Witch]]>> >>> ### Ramp <<< Go big or go home. Green is at the heart of these decks, but Red and Blue provide ample options for more proactive or reactive versions of the archetype. Primary Colors {G} <<[[!Birds of Paradise]] [[!Maraleaf Pixie]] [[!Radha, Heart of Keld]]>> Secondary Colors {U}{R} <<[[!Magma Opus]] [[!Alpine Guide]] [[!Dreamscape Artist]]>> >>> ### Lands <<< A more grindy archetype than the ramp deck, and gets the best value from nonbasics like fetches and channel lands. Primary Colors {G} <<[[!Erinis, Gloom Stalker]] [[!Life From the Loam]] [[!Titania, Protector of Argoth]]>> Secondary Colors {R}{B} <<[[!Lord Windgrace]] [[!Wrenn and Six]] [[!Orcish Lumberjack]]>> Pack seeding per player (45 cards) 30 Monocolor (6 of each) 7 Fixing 4 Artifact 4 Multicolor With 8 players(360 cards): 240 Monocolor (48 of each) 56 Fixing 32 Artifact 32 Multicolor
