As much as I love Noble Hierarch, I think Chromatic Star would have been better here. It synergizes well with Gut, Lurrus and all the Goyfs (you had no other artifacts at this point) and even helps fix your mana for Timewalk.

Hello! I ended up b/r there too, starting with time twister and mana drain though. I went with glorybringer over containment priest, it's just a game winning card. Priest is reactive, you know it's just going to be a 2/2 at least half the time, and you might go r/b or r/g. Pretty sure no one opened minsc and boo or bombardiers pack 1 so you got a little unlucky in packs 2 and 3 I think. Oh I hated Stern Scolding, that card is just such a blowout from a control deck, it's all they need to stem the tide until they do something big. Since you went green, look at how good that Sylvan Safekeeper would have been! And you had the Gut to dump it if need be, and you got Titania, and maybe that makes fireblast playable, idk. I've been blanked by the safekeeper with treachery and more in hand myself, that's how I know. It's just maindeckable with a gut or bombardiers or obv Titania. They should keep the cube up through the Vegas tournament! Oh I should say I got zero 64 player tokens. I played about ten times in the feeder league and went 3-1 twice, that's it.

Love your evaluations my friend good stuff! I was coming off a 12 hour work shift so my brain 🧠 wasn’t at full capacity…but that round 1 opponents deck was a bit nutty. I felt lucky to take him to a game 3

Chrome Mox > Otharri, Generous Plunderer > Glimmer Lens, City of Traitors > Samwise - might have been an interesting direction. Your best cards all point towards an explosive deck, so I prefer a direction which will more reliably do this. The great thing about RW in cube is that you're not even giving up anything really if you draft the deck this way, since the one-card value engines in these colours are so insane. By the time these choices came up for you, you already had Forth and Fable anyway, so you can can feel confident any card disadvantage is likely to be very well mitigated, by the end of the draft. Wasteland is fantastic and you can consider it a 1 drop for deck building purposes - 1 mana is the cheapest interaction you'll get and the effect is absolutely backbreaking in many spots.

I highly appreciate your insights, I'm very curious how a version of this deck with chrome mox/generous plunderer/city of traitors/wasteland would have fared. I like your assessment of the RW arch-type as a whole (lot's of 1 card value engines). I can't wait for the next iteration of the cube to fire (will probably have to wait a while I'm sure)

Why didn't you cast the 2/1 on turn one instead of soul ring? Turn two soul ring fable, attack 2?

The picks seemed strange at times but in the end it is a strong dynamic deck. G/W Depths was an option too. Having the Dark Depths that early basically ensures so many cards will get passed. And if you nabbed the Sylvan Safekeeper then maybe Titania comes around pack three too.

@@richardcook4260 It can get disrupted fairly easily... but the green white version, it seems one can hate the white cards that disrupt it and just leave the black cards out there as duds for other decks. Flickerwisp, the o ring flicker card, path/swords, unexpectedly absent, karakas. I only made the deck once, a very clean green black version with everything except an urborg, and still lost in the second round to an explosive artifact deck with draw sevens. It had Hogak too... stitcher's supplier, satyr wayfinder, wight of the reliquary, crop rotation, vampire hexmage, sylvan safekeeper + Titania, inquisition, vampiric tutor, ramunap, six... still lost. Edit: oh the white version can have giver of runes to get through a thopter token, or mother of runes as a lesser version.

As a heads up as a first-time viewer, your cam is blocking a portion of the drafting pool. I doubt most people watching on KZbin are invested in what chat is saying, so might be worth finding a way to move it down if possible. I like the draft choices in this one though.
