Terastadon combos nicely with swag and can destroy any orings in our way.

I like Terastodon, and it looks like the Cube has a good amount of ramp. I just hope we can grab enough of it.

O-Ring is also interesting, but we already passed some White goodies and I wouldn't like to fight for it if I can help. Terastodon for me.

You kill thragtusk and get tokens. Oh it says noncreature. Magic cards are dumb

By the way, the way I'm doing this, I'll be able to show you guys the full packs and the final decks for the other drafters.

I pretty much made packs from my cube, typed them into a spreadsheet, and am making picks en masse whenever I post the next pick in this thread.

With full disclosure that I have never drafted a cube before... picking O-ring then going whereever is open seems like a reasonable plan. All the cards are g00t.

sprout swarm seems to go really well with Edric.

Tropical Island

This seems like a bomby format, and being able to play more colors is good there. I don't remember much aggro so far. I'd take the Sledge, but it stretches our colors even further; or Bonesplitter, which is a first pick in Modern Masters. Swarm takes forever to get going.

Commander, why Control Magic over the Licid? If you forget about removal for a second, Licid seems way better.

It's generally easier to kill a creature then it is an enchantment and the licid being a 1/1 makes it an easy target for anything.

Coalition Relic fixing is important.

By the way, the Black is strangely empty from these 8 I made.
