JollyAnchorCube Changes: Token Time and Preference Changes!

Woof, I am tired after work, and I should just rest, but I really wanted to work on the cube before tomorrow when I try and head to the card shop!

Additions

Going over the changes we have changes to give white more ways to produce tokens, good for sacrificing in the Black White decks!

blc-9-jacked-rabbit blc-10-murmuration nph-4-blade-splicer

I like all of these for a few reasons. Jacked rabbit being a nice card at multiple stages of the game, wearing enchantments and equipment well, and having proliferate-able counters makes it nice and diverse!

Murmuration is a very cool token producer that will jive well with the storm decks that splash for it, but for every other deck it will just be a good way of getting good flying tokens that can help end the game or make for good sacrifice fodder!

Blade Splicer is just a classic blink target, two bodies for one card, just a classic!

Most of the other additions are just replacing cards that could either be better or I didn't enjoy as much!

Only notes for these are;

Aether Channeler is just a better Man o' War, I like it.

Treasure Cruise and Underworld Breach are very powerful cards that I've been debating putting in the cube for a while, we'll see how I like them!

I wanted to add the Gearhulk as a nice top end for red that can either draw you some cards, or blast your opponent, and some decks will even enjoy having those cards go to the graveyard!

Notes for the removed cards;

Khenra Spellspear didn't feel satisfying for a gold slot so it's out.

Mind's Desire doesn't feel right for the cube, very expensive but I don't think it would be a good payoff.

Timeless Dragon is kinda a redundant top end with Angel of Sanctions but the angel also acts as removal.
