In the past couple years our Cube meta has seen a tad decline in the power of aggro from the plethora of solid lifegain and midrange value creatures printed. To be honest this was much needed for our Cube, as the average red aggro deck was essentially locked for at least a 2-1...
Because of this, I've started to look at some grindier cards like Hidden Stockpile. Please share experiences with this card.
Doesn't seem particularly good to be honest. Bitterblossom does it better without taking up a competitive guild slot IMHO.
Taking a lot at the enemy guild power rankings might suggest some alternatives. In Orzhov, Lingering Souls is definitely the best token generator, and the two Sorin Planeswalkers can generate tokens as well. In terms of fringe Orzhov cards I'm a fan of Gerrard's Verdict and Tidehollow Sculler. Kaya's Wrath will help control beat aggro decks as well.
Thoughts? Experiences?
