Collectible Card Game Headquarters

Let me swing some theory at you:
Blue in your cube is just too strong. This isn't strictly your fault, as the AI is responsible for passing the player ridiculous cards. Being able to get JTMS 6th pick, being able to table things like Consecrated Sphinx and Time Walk, as well as always being able to draft at least 1 brainstorm/ponder/preordain/mystical tutor/fact or fiction makes it feel as though you are being fed Blue every time. As much as I hate to say it, maybe the overall power level of Blue needs to be dropped. Possibly replace cards like JTMS and Consecrated Sphinx with less-splashable, more specific/combo-centric cards. For me, at least, this could lead to more decisions than just 'do I play Blue/Black or Blue/Red. Or Blue/Black/Red.'

Other than that, the cube is great and I'm glad to see it getting put into new versions.

Here is a list of cards that the AI can't use well (at least without a properly deck):

Rare:

Vampiric Tutor
Umezawa's Jitte
Survival of the Fittest
Squall Line
Rolling Earthquake
Morphling
Armageddon

Uncommon:

Briarhorn
Demonic Tutor
Enlightened Tutor
Force of Will
Isochron Scepter
Regrowth
Sol Ring

Common:

Azorius Chancery
Brainstorm
Cavern Harpy
Dark Ritual
Dimir Aqueduct
Gruul Turf
Impulse
Lignify
Pestermite
Rakdos Carnarium
Selesnya Sanctuary
Serum Visions
Sprout Swarm (not properly implemented)

If you replace some of them, the AI might become more challenging.
