I also doesn't agreed on the Wrath of God statement. It goes in any white deck
It doesn't really though, and you don't technically disagree with me because you follow up with this...
...if you are having enough suitable stuff to control the board early and finish the game later on.
You guys are running wrath in Wx decks with 15 creatures?? Why?
I probably went too far suggesting Soulfire is as playable as Wrath of God. Fair enough, it's not. But the point is it's closer to a mono colored card than something like Lightning Helix. So why have them compete for the same slots in your cube? That's all I'm saying.

Nobody said this.

They both require you to be playing a specific combination of colors before they're playable in your deck. Neither should be considered mono-colored cards, IMO.
And this is also just plain incorrect. If you need burn spells and red mana to put Soulfire into your deck, and you need white mana to cast it, it's much closer to Helix in functionality than it is to a white card.

I personally wouldn't have Soulfire and Helix competing for the same slots in the cube. Tribrid cards aren't 2-color gold cards and they aren't mono-colored cards. They're something else entirely.
