I have to admit that I found this episode extremely boring. I used to love it as a kid, but it has lost some of it's luster over the years.
They spend a good time trying to out manuever the alien cube. I guess that this built up some more of that jargon for future episodes. "Warp Factor", phasers, etc.
I notice there was no mention of torpedos in the early episodes.

This type of stalemate was done much better in "Balance of Terror", I'll admit. This struggle was a little anti-climactic because we find out that Balock was just toying with Kirk. However, the Kirk/McCoy scene was important, as well as contrasting the brash, young Bailey with the seasoned senior bridge officers.
The pacing was a little slow, but I think it helped build dramatic tension - and this episode was about exactly that - the tension associated with encountering the unknown - and Kirk's creative solution to being overpowered and outgunned.
