As you all know, Cube is the greatest format ever. If a god does exist, surley the Human Race was created for the sole purpose of building a cube.
This is the Group Build a cube.
Rules
1. This is a Legendary themed cube, please suggest cards with that format in mind.
2. You may only post 2 different cards a day. (Please keep 3-5 card suggestions inbetween each of your post). One Card Per Post
3. You MUST use card tags. ([card]Card Name[/card]). Also explain your card choice in one or two sentences. Not doing so will make Hello-Kitty-Darth-Vader cry.
4. Please maker sure you've read other people's suggested cards before making your own. Some cards need other cards for support.
5. If three people (within a short period of time) vote for the removal of a card. The card will be removed. This is to make sure the group can veto a bad decison.
6. Last, and most important, have fun. Remember this isn't all that serious. It's cube. Try to build a wacky-fun cube that will probably never be built. If this goes well, I'll run this again.
The first card added to this Legendary cube of ours is Sword of the Chosen. This has always been a favorite card of mine that I never got around to using. It's kind of like a bad equipment for our deck.

If we're using the build with a fairly substantial number of artifacts, I want to nominate Sword of Fire and Ice.
Aside from having great abilities and granting protection from two colors, I think
1) This card seems very epic/legendary, like an ultimate weapon forged to defeat those color pairs.
2) This card is a definite bomb, and its power give sit a Legendary Artifact feel.
3) This card will make Thrun, the Last Troll (which we have to be including!) really good.
4) This card seem more legendary than other great equipment. While I see the argument for Sword of Vengeance and perhaps Skullclamp, I don't really think Loxodon Warhammer, Basilisk Collar, Grafted Wargear, etc. have the legendary flavor we are looking for. Though I do think we should include the other three Swords as well.
Edit: The rules do not actually say only one card per post, they simply say to wait 3-5 posts before posting again.
Also, I have a feeling all 5 Kamigawa legendary support land needs to be in here. Do we suggest card like that as a cycle or what?
Also, what's going to be the deal with Lightning Bolt/Wrath of God/Counterspell? It doesn't seem like a healthy format with lacks of cards that make a magic game that that.
Lastly, would epic feeling card like Epics spell and the new Eternal Witness 8 mana soccery epic enough to be in this legendary cube?
I think Hero's Demise would be a good choice for this cube as most of the creatures will probably end up being legends.
Side Note: I originally put Sword of the Chosen in my stack as a laugh since its a HUGE pile of cards and there weren't a lot of legendary creatures in there. Since then I have put a bunch of weird legends in for flavor reason and Sword has proven to be really really good. It complicates combat and makes even the weaker legends like Skeleton Ship and Azami, Lady of Scrolls at least a little threatening

I think we should only include cards that feel legendary in Magic, for instance Wrath of God has been there for a long time and is pretty iconic to Magic and should be included... as on the other hand Day of Judgement is not legendary and not iconic and should not be included.
Everyone but XfollowthereaperX has been added ot the OP.
@OP_forever: I'm of the opinion that a "legend" cube still needs support for basic simple spells. But if the group doesn't want it that way, we will roll that way.

I thought it said 2 different cards a day... this is going to take a while if it can only post one at a time. I have edited my post to only include one now. Anyways what does everyone think of my suggestion for non-creature spells?

I think Final Judgement(not my vote) is another wrath that feels legendary. It's totally possible to make a cube that includes all the necessary utility cards and still have a lot of flavor.

Well, it'll be nice to start another vote so we can decide on it so that we're not "kicking" any card outer later because it's too few.

I think that's a very good card for this cube as the powerlevel is lower as many of the cards in this cube would have to be.
I'll use my second vote of the day on Figure of Destiny just to push that a little further. It's a pretty epic and legendary card. A little soldier trains and fights and scrapes his way until he is a giant spirit warrior thing. I also think something like Ashling the Pilgrim might be good for aggro as a slower version of FoD. Since I'm done voting for the day at this point I'll have plenty of time to think of the next set of cards!
In terms of price, the card itself is 2/5 the cost of a Jace, TMS. Unless of course we are saying Jace will eventually be cut because of it's "prohibitive" cost.
I agree that Karakas seems broken and I hadn't taken that into account. Not a ton of Legendary type things that deal with lands.
Also, would Clone be considered in a submission on a subsequent day or is it too un-legendary?
Clone would a be 4-mana spell essentially reading Destroy Target Legendary Creature.
MY vote: Kodama of the North Tree This guy is good enough for many rare cubes, and I definitely think he'll be good here as well. Just a powerful green guy, really.

Pretty much an auto first pick in a legendary cube IMO. This land does it all and I'm sure we'd all play it in any deck in this cube.
I do not think this card should be in the cube as it is broken... and too expensive for such a casual cube.

I'll start voting for epic spells after we got the voting done and over.

Legendary sorceries for the (epic) win.
Haha now that is an "epic" spell if I ever saw one lol! Awesome.
Also, would Clone be considered in a submission on a subsequent day or is it too un-legendary?
It's a really cool card with a real legendary feel to it. Further more it's from the legends set...
For my second nomination I choose Rasputin Dreamweaver because it's on of my pet cards (that unfortunatly aren't good enough for regular cube.
