Has anyone actually made a list for one of these?

I think people realized it would just be horrible to play.

Hmm well that's a shame. I still think it'd be fun to play with but I don't think I could put it together well. Maybe something to look forward to when I have a better command of mtg's terrible cards.

Actually, a cube list does exists, built around the "Gatherer-Terrible" Format, (in which the only cards legal are cards with a rating of 2 or less on the gatherer)

The Gatherer-Terrible Cube, mind you this list is a year or two old now, so ratings may have changed a little bit.

To my understanding, Aladdin's Ring is the windmill slam first pick.

I was actually already familiar with the gatherer-terrible format but other people's attempts at bad card cubes that I've found haven't been as mean to include cards like synergyless darksteel relic. Still in the absence of a cube specifically built to be the Strictly Worse cube it's probably a good foundation to build on.

And yeah, in a bad card format anything that has a powerful effect is powerful even if the mana cost is whack.

Made one a few months ago, made everyone sad, two dead, 3 injured. Lest we forget.

I still have the cube in my room, I've never written up lists for my decks or cubes but I could with some help.
