So, as it turns out...the cube accidentally had two too many cards for a total of 722 instead of 720. I found that the culprits were one extra Selesnya card and one extra red card. Because of this, I had to cut one of each. The following are sacrificial lambs that had to go for the sake of balance!
Nice Try, Communist Swine!
Arc Trail was cut a long time ago because it really just hated on ramp and aggro strategies and didn't really serve a function other than that. It's not bad but red has other similar effects and this was the weakest at the time. Regardless, it never got taken off the list which is why red has 1 extra card...this one. Now that this is deleted we are back to normal in red.
Go Back to Your Plainsey Forestey Prison!
Again, not quite sure what happened but Behemoth Sledge was listed as being in the cube despite not actually existing in it which gave Selesnya an extra card on the cube list. Problems remedied again by deleting it from the list.
In Out
This was a change that happened many updates ago...a couple of sets after New Phyrexia when I moved Act of Aggression to colorless since it was being played consistently in decks regardless of its mana while Scrabbling Claws wasn't really being played at all because the graveyard wasn't relevant enough for a hate card. For some reason that just never got reflected in the master list....Scrabbling Claws was still listed as in but Act of Aggression wasn't listed anywhere...so....now it's reflected correctly.
Conclusion
This is what we get when I decide to make sure that all of my cards are in the right sections and I have a proper list of which cards I actually need to remove proxies for. At least now we are back to normal...I wonder how long we have been like that for? Oh well.
Enjoy!
