All the rares and mythics of Commander Legends: Battle for Baldur's Gate have now been spoiled. The rest of the commons and uncommons are likely to come in tomorrow on the Mothership, and there are still some cards from the preconstructed decks to look out for. Overall, what are your thoughts? How does the Initiative fit in with your cube?
So NEO is mostly spoiled by now - there is 1 rare left, and the usual uncommon/common dump in a few hours' time. Overall, the set looks quite fun, with a few superb cards and some interesting potential synergies. For myself, I'll be adding a few and watching/testing quite a lot!
I know Mergatroid_Jones has made an almost-playable thread with this card in it, but it might just be better than expected. This is a decent amount of value for a 3-drop - similar to Seasoned Pyromancer. You get 2 2/2s, some ramp, and rummaging for 3 mana. The discount Kiki can still go infinite with a mana dork and Village Bell-Ringer. It probably won't make the leanest of cubes, but is a worthy consideration of more synergy-focused or larger cubes.
For me, at 360 powered:
Inclusions:
White Plume Adventurer
Seasoned Dungeoneer
Gut, True Soul Zealot
Caves of Chaos Adventurer
Undermountain Adventurer
Monster Manual
Minsc & Boo, Timeless Heroes
Watchlist:
Descent into Avernus
Delayed Blast Fireball
Erinis, Gloom Stalker
Looks pretty nuts, and slots into Peasant cubes as well!
Sacrifice your 1-drop or your Treasures or your Ragavan token to upgrade it into a 4/1 menace!
This doesn't need to attack to trigger, either!
Caldaia Guardian - green's Lingering Souls variant
Titan of Industry - another great cheat target
A heavy 3-coloured set where a lot of the rares and mythics are 3-coloured will have a harder time with cube, since I don't run any 3C+ cards.
