We did a pair of cube drafts today with the Power Cube. In the first one I drafted a RUG thingy with Jace TMS, Black Lotus, Ancestral Recall, 2 Moxen, Natural Order->Craterhoof, Inferno Titan, and various other things to round it out. Ended up winning 3-0 and won the Myr Battlesphere and tokens that I really wanted. We then did another one and I went for UW Control, with Jace TMS, Elspeth Tirel, Jace, Memory Adept, Ancestral Recall and Visions, 2 moxen, Wrath and Supreme Verdict, FoW, Cryptic, Counterspell, O Ring, Celestial Colonnade, and Venser plus other stuff. I haven't played a true control deck in a while but this was a lot of fun to play. I went 2-1 with it, losing the third round to not drawing enough lands against the reanimator deck, since almost all of my cards are answers against it.
Good lord, that must be a really small cube, and the other players must be really averse to playing blue. Getting JTMS and Recall in a single draft is sick enough, but two in a row is just bonkers. Then Memory Adept is basically a 5-mana Blightsteel Colossus (in that you usually win the game the turn after it hits the board if it's not dealt with). In the first draft you probably didn't even need the green. Maybe not even the red.
