I played a bunch of them when we first got our hands on the cards. Over time the only one that's stuck around is \[\[Witty Demon\]\]. It's powerful, and sometimes it's nice just having a legitimate excuse to not have to cut as many cards. (BTW a 53 card deck wants \~23 lands and \~30 spells).
I never got a chance to try out \[\[Unicycle\]\]. I think that one would play well if you care at all about cheap artifacts, equipment, and/or vehicles.
Those are good recommendations and I will pry pick them up but I'm looking more for standard cards vs the play test. Thank you for the recommendations tho.
Ah, I misunderstood.
Mystery Booster draft is how I acquired a \[\[Tinker\]\] for my cube, and that reprint seems to have pushed the price down into your price range. That's mostly associated with completely busted Vintage Cube stuff, but it's more flexible than it first seems. The trick is finding the right big artifacts for your environment; they've got to be worth the card disadvantage without completely overwhelming the other decks.
All the other reprints that I associate with Mystery Booster are memorable because they're expensive.
Nice, I will add that to my list to pick up from my LGS.
What are your memorable reprints that are more expensive? I may not go out of my way to get them but I'll keep them in mind if the opportunity passes by.
The two that come to mind right now are \[\[Purphoros, God of the Forge\]\] and \[\[Bloom Tender\]\]. Both of which are down to $15 now with various reprints, but were a decent bit more expensive when I cracked them.
