Hey guys, so take a look at the updates I made. I've been toying with the idea of adding in alternate win conditions for each color. Keep in mind, I added a bunch of cards, expecting many of them, maybe even most of them to be removed. There are more than one alternative win-con for some colors, but I posted them all so we can discuss which ones we like best. So far, we have:

White: Felidar Sovereign, Barren Glory, Celestial Convergence, Near-Death Experience, Test of Endurance, Azor's Elocutors and of course, The Cheese Stands Alone.

Green: Helix Pinnacle, Epic Struggle Azor's Elocutors,

Red: Hellkite Tyrant, and I thought as a semi-alternative win condition, red could have land damage (Obsidian Fireheart, Manabarbs etc.)

Blue: Azor's Elocutors, maybe Laboratory Maniac and nothing...yeah we're gonna need to work on this one. I thought maybe mill but that's sorta not that exciting and it's hard to make that an ALTERNATIVE without making it the only option in blue. Oh wait, Now I Know My ABC's...but seriously guys it's that desperate xD

Black: There's hardly anything in black to help us out with alternate win-cons. All I got was Phage the Untouchable and Mortal Combat. I thought maybe we could use poison and/or infect for black's win-con.

Multi-color: Door to Nothingness, Coalition Victory, Vraska the Unseen, Mayael's Aria. We should discuss if we even want to have multi-colored options.

Colorless: Darksteel Reactor, Amulet of Quoz. I just included the amulet cuz I figured I'd be thorough, I don't expect anyone to actually want to play with the card. But hey, if you guys want to play for ante (how about instead of cards, candy? :D) we could totally do that.

Now for some other stuffs: Things that will save yo' sorry ass but wont win for you. Remember, this is all just here for discussion, if you don't like something, just say so.

Lich's Mirror, Platinum Emperion, Platinum Angel, Angel's Grace, Transcendence, Soul Echo.

Now for some other things. I was thinking of some themes for the colors and I here are some thoughts:

Red: uses your mana against you (already mentioned this), artifacts? (Hellkite Tyrant)

White: Lifegain (obviously) and level up (we could add more white levelers like Student of Warfare)

Blue: Extra turns (Beacon of Tomorrows)

These are just a few of the themes I think we could build on, if you have other ideas by all means leave them here.

And last of all, I thought I'd mention one more idea for an overall theme: Proliferation. Proliferate is a strong mechanic and it helps several of the alternate win cons (Darksteel Reactor, Helix Pinnacle etc). This is just a thought but maybe it can be another theme.

Anyway, sorry for the long-winded explanation but there you have it. All the current ideas for our cube. Discuss!

Added the RtR and Alara block charms in order to add incentive to go multi-color.
