Not a fan of the art, but really dogging Tough Cookie for my artifact cube. It’s 2 artifacts/foods, a mana sink and a use for
food, clues or treasure, and a Golem that works with Splicers!
2 cc that can potentially be a 3 for 1 is a really great baseline. Flash makes it a decent combat trick that can kill up to an X/3 or up to 3 X/1s.
The card draw trigger can somehow negate the CA with a token and ping, and with flash it can be cast in response to card draw. In play it can even deter card draw spells.
And the cherry in top is to potentially combo with Wheel effects and produce a 7/7 along with 7 dividable damage.
If one dislikes UB, then this us still a valid addition because of the generic flavor.
Was very eager to buy the MoM drop, but not
a fan of the Halo Foil (of course have not seen it, but I find it ugly based on the images in the web). So now I’ll pass. For some reason I feel very happy about that.
Even though I am postive my cube wont have updates this release, I still read your article, haha! And it looks like you agree! Not much for small cubes. (Mine is 450)
I believe shark is ok for 450 but i’d rather have it in artifact cube.
This is the card I have been waiting for my Affinity Scales deck as it needs more redundancy. It is even an artifact to have synergy with Arcbound Ravager. 2cc is not ideal, but of course this cannot cost less than that.
Also works will in my artifact cube where green has a +1/+1 counter theme.
Sad news for sure. Normally the internet is a messy, uncivilized place, but mtgsalvation has been my haven for people talking about the game they love.
Good luck on your next adventure and thanks for the years of fun.
I’d also go for Horizon Lands as they enter untapped and favors aggro. 450 unpowered without duals.
That said, they are both good so it boils down whether you want to limit fixing or not.

E.g which are the best colorless Titans?
Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre
Emrakul, the Eons Torn
Kozilek, Butcher of Truth
Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger
Emrakul, the Promises End
Phyrexian Triniform
Triplicate Titan
For artifact cube I’d Include Peregrin Took. He’s a weaker Academy Manufactor but redundancy is good.
Have been cool.
Flavor win if the land revealed was Mount Doom.
But then again the graveyard cost is counter to the strategy.
In my artifact cube I will prefer one of the Big Score Variants, as it adds to the GY rather than remove.
In a slow environment a etb tapped land is ok; perhaps I’ll test is this of I can easily get my hands on it.

Advantage of Sun Titan is that the recursion is guaranteed. 6/6 is significantly better as well.
I’m sticking with Titan.
For artifact cube, Ozolith is what green needs for more +1/+1 counter synergy. Also looking at incubate cards if there are decent ones.
Trample + Fire breathing can win games. Seems pretty boring though. Will likely pass. Will consider if cheap money wise.
