Hello, I've been trying to get a cube built for a while now, and I finally got my cube list down. I located all the cards I have on this list, and am now in the process of acquiring the cards I don't have. The title "Semi Budget" is because of certain absences in my list:
Force of Will will not be present. Mana Drain will not be present. Berserk will not be present (I hope to someday possess one, however) Tarmogoyf - Replaced with Master of the Wild Hunt Moat is not present. Sinkhole will go in later. Maelstrom Pulse will go in later. Pernicious Deed will go in later.
ABU Duals will not be present. (I hope to someday complete my set of them) Library of Alexandria will not be present. Wasteland - I had a copy, but it disappeared. If I find it, it goes in.
Power 9 will not be present. Eventually, though.
In general, if it has a $40+ price tag, it won't go in for a while.
I opened one last year, got two crap worldwake packs and 8x scathe zombies, which I promptly hid around my sister's apartment for her roommates to find. But, yeah, it was a piece of crap.
You, sir, have just won the internet. Congratulations.

-Maybe the whole set of Filter-lands aren't needed. In some colour combinations, the Bouncelands are better, and in some the Pain-lands are better. People generally comment for example that the W/B filterland is useful because of the large amount of BB and WW early drops there are.
In U/W however, I'd probably prefer the U/W bounceland. That is, unless I'm holding Cryptic Command! or something.
-You're probably running too many green fatties. IMO I'd cut one for another aggro dude like Twinblade Slasher or Jungle Lion. Primeval Titan is not nearly as good in cube as he is in standard. I'd lose him for sure.
-In white, I'd try to get Karmic Guide, and maybeWeathered Wayfarer (although I'm not sure about him in a 400 cube) in there. I think it's better than at least Flickerwisp.

Thanks for the fast response!
1. I will have to test the cube to determine which colors want which lands, but I will keep your suggestions in mind!
2. Not cutting the titan. I already bought him just for the cube, and want to use him. I probably should cut master of the wild hunt though, as it replaced tarmogyof. Will look into jungle lion.
3. Karmic guide looks fun, not sure on the wayfarer. Opinions on vs. flickerwisp?

Gah I seriously failed at typing... mulldrifter is on my physical list, so is bribery, and I forgot the red and black X spells. Will edit tomorrow.
EDS: @ islip: I've actually been saving for a while, and last Christmas + birthday helped. Plus, I still am missing something on the order of 100 cards which I am in the process of finding/ordering.
Also, really want to test the titan before chopping him.
EDS2: Just wanted to thank eidolon for the cube statistics. Updated with (what I hope are all) the missing cards that are actually on my physical list.

I really like Karmic Guide, but I think I'd prefer to keep Flickerwisp because it's better for aggro. Not sure though. Both cards have been great for me. I like the other cuts you are considering.
I don't think Equilibrium and Mind Spring are powerful enough. Although some cubists still run Future Sight, the trend has been cutting it. I'd likely cut those three cards for Sea Gate Oracle, Looter il-Kor, and Faerie Conclave.

It's certainly not bad, but it is outclassed, and in most cases a "win more" then again lots of people in my cube LOVE Gilded Lotus and it falls under a similar category. I sold mine for 40.00 and got alot of other cards
I don't think P Titan is bad, just unnecessary. Green has other better fatties. P Titan gives you ramp when you no longer need it (how often do you need to ramp to 8 mana in limited when you already have a 6-drop on the table?). Yes, you can occassionally hook him up with broken lands but that's not going to be a common occurance. So, when you look at the 6+ mana creatures for green, I don't think P Titan is as good as:
I'd only run him if I had room for at least one more 6-drop after including those. That would mean my cube would probably need to expand to about 650 cards before I'd run Primeval Titan.
Well, that's unfortunate. I was hoping that getting it for $25 was great for the cube... Oh well, I'll try to trade it for a hierarch and a cobra. Or maybe a confidant and something else... Oh well. I can substitute other things for it, and I know I have a rampaging baloths or two lying around...

Those sound like great ideas for the trade. You're going to have a lot more impact on your cube with $10 aggro/ramp guys like those instead of a randomly awesome big green dude.
You could also try getting a Vengevine instead.
Also, random things I noticed in your OP: Bribery is 5 CMC, and I would keep Flickerwisp over Karmic Guide (in your "considering cutting" section).
How good exactly is vengevine? It seems fun, but not necessary for the cube. Opinions? Also, thanks on the bribery thing, once I actually own that card I will probably remember its cmc...
I should have my cube complete in physical form by Summer at the latest.

Just finished picking up stuff for my cube (ordering it all) and managed to fine a cheap JTMS since I last posted here. What should I cut for him? Also, I got a foily Vengevine and am considering cutting harrow for it. thoughts?

Here are some things I considered:
-Maybe the whole set of Filter-lands aren't needed. In some colour combinations, the Bouncelands are better, and in some the Pain-lands are better. People generally comment for example that the W/B filterland is useful because of the large amount of BB and WW early drops there are.
In U/W however, I'd probably prefer the U/W bounceland. That is, unless I'm holding Cryptic Command! or something.
-You're probably running too many green fatties. IMO I'd cut one for another aggro dude like Twinblade Slasher or Jungle Lion. Primeval Titan is not nearly as good in cube as he is in standard. I'd lose him for sure.
-In white, I'd try to get Karmic Guide, and maybe Weathered Wayfarer (although I'm not sure about him in a 400 cube) in there. I think it's better than at least Flickerwisp.

1. I will have to test the cube to determine which colors want which lands, but I will keep your suggestions in mind!
2. Not cutting the titan. I already bought him just for the cube, and want to use him. I probably should cut master of the wild hunt though, as it replaced tarmogyof. Will look into jungle lion.
3. Karmic guide looks fun, not sure on the wayfarer. Opinions on vs. flickerwisp?

Host of the July CCL '10, Host of the March CCL '11
HaHa, you forgot to add Mulldrifter, the card is ridiculous.
I'd sell the Primeval Titan and replace it with Kodama of the North Tree or Thornling, they are far more likely to connect. The cube is no place for dumb fatties.
I'd also replace Steel Hellkite with Myr Battlesphere.
For fine tuning, you will ultimately base your cuts on how well the card performs for your group.
Enjoy your cubing!

Hmmm...

Gatekeeper of Malakir for Barter in Blood
Smash to Smithereens for Keldon Vandal

I'd only run him if I had room for at least one more 6-drop after including those. That would mean my cube would probably need to expand to about 650 cards before I'd run Primeval Titan.

I'd also take out Sudden Death before Innocent Blood.
Other swaps look good.

50% for Blastoderm seems way low, though...
Oath of Druids ----> Beast Within

I like the Golem more. It's just more aggressive.
