Reanimator is somewhat possible, but it's difficult to support in such a large cube. But it's definatly a decktype I want to support.

MBA is also a viable strategy, and as you've noted it's quite supported.

I'd try and squeeze both Cabal Interrogator & Dusk Urchins in. Short list of questionables this time:

Crypt Sliver
Cunning Lethemancer
Ashling the Extinguisher
Throat Slitter
Vendetta

Willow-o'-the-Wisp could probably go as well if you need to make more room.

EDIT: I don't see Thoughtsieze on your list, assuming it just got missed.

Ashling the Extinguisher i like in really big cube, but the rest of them is no biggie if u lose them.

So finally the Red and Green sections are also done. As usual any comments will be well recieved. The cards currently on my wantlist in the two colors are:

Red
Keldon Vandals
Zo-Zu the Punisher
Magma Jet
Starstorm

Green
Indrik Stomphowler
Twinblade Slasher
Survival of the Fittest
Eureka
Skyshroud Elite
Wall of Blossoms

I need to remove three red cards and three green cards as well. Any suggestions? And did I forget any good cards on my list?

here's my two cents:

Red cuts:
brute force (it's okay, but would be better off as a burn spell)
flame jab (i'd rather have shock)
shivan dragon (He's a classic, but also outclassed by your other 6+ drops)

Green cuts:
mycoloth (an easy way to erase your own board position)
thorn elemental (I love him, but he's easy to kill and doesn't replace himself like most of the other high CMC creatures you have)
wild growth (the creatures that do it are just better)

If you really want a Willow-o'-the-Wisp replacement I think Perimeter Captain is pretty good for control.

These are cube stables, I run all but Eureka (don't own one.)

Thx for your time, but the Captain is white and Wisp is black... The reason the Wisp is in there is to help black control strategies.

Yeah I know. That's why they are on my wantlist. What I want help with is to find room for them. Three red and three green cards.

I prefer the Apocalypse Spiritmonger art. Also, we tried Eureka out here and it wasn't that good. There was one game where I totally blew a guy out on turn three, but every other time it wasnt good (drawn at bad times, no fatties to cheat into play, or nobody drafting a deck that could support such a fancy trick.)

Wow, the your new cards are so much better than the stuff you have removed for them.
Future Sight draws you so much cards that it is not even funny!

I prefer GP Spiritmonger but the APC foil is more pimp if that helps.

Great update, and I prefer the AP Spiritmonger anyways. I like the frame and the art a lot better.

Wicked update, man. All are total upgrades. And I'm with the others on the Spiritmonger. The Apocalypse card the best by far.
