Ferrick's still way too strong man Pianna is a fine card, playable in maybe 540+ already. Adding an easier mana cost, giving her persist and everything that attacks persist is very difficult for the opponent to come back from after blocking. You could probably make it either WWW and a 3/2, 1WW and remove her persist granting ability, or 1WW and remove her persist ability, or 2WW and make her a 3/2. I'd be more ok with any of those fixes, though still think the middle two are the best ones.
I think you're completely right, and appreciate you pointing that out again. I made him 1WW and replaced persist with undying and made other creatures only get +1/+1 until eot. I know, it's still very powerful but it helps white and token strategies which is really great as this list is a full powered cube.
I'll be posting blue soon here, just would like to take the time to create a set icon first. Stay tuned and hopefully I'll get some more feedback soon!
Liliana of the Veil is a cube staple, the real question is if you should run both or not. I think it depends on what you support and how big your cube is.
It sounds like if there can only be one then you have your answer. Veil!
Scepter is also a really fun toy if you Roto draft your cube. Plumeveil or Geist of Saint Traft? Im looking for Thassa support and this is one of the best exchanges I can think of...
Geist of Saint Traft, easily. Only reason not to include him is if you want to tone down the power level because he's bonkers.
You know what sounds kind of sweet with Thassa? Future Sight
Because black aggro is different than white aggro.Black has a much higher quantity of removal, so the non-evasion abilities on the 2-drops are more important. Black aggro runs a lower creature count than white aggro, because so many of the black aggro cards are spells. This means there's less slots available. Black doesn't have a bunch of creature pump available, so the shadow isn't as strong. Also, a lot of black aggro decks focus around a sub-strategy like Pox/Stax, recursive beaters, mass disruption spells, etc. It simply functions differently than white aggro does.
Erebos, God of the Underworld 4BB
Legendary Enchantment Creature — God (M)
Indestructible
As long as your devotion to black is less than five, Erebos isn't a creature. (Each B in the mana costs of permanents you control counts towards your devotion to black.)
All other creatures have deathtouch.
Skip your draw step.

I think they might affect drafting or something of that matter.

I'm already running Seal, Disenchant, and Kor.
