I'm building a variant of this cube here: https://cubecobra.com/cube/overview/salsashark The cube will have it's first outing at the unoffical cube side event at MagicCon Amsterdam, details here: https://discord.gg/akCyR6Hk I ran the Penny Pincher 1.0 for a few years without changes...

You sent me on a journey down a rabbit hole, there's some incredible stuff being made. I don't have any issue in principle with customs/proxies/reproductions, but am I right in thinking it's difficult in getting anything printed that might infringe on copyright, card backs for example? That...

Scrolling through the Msets: Silence Ancestral Blade - this will only stay if I decide to use 1/1 white soldier tokens, big maybe White Knight Dub - love this! found quite a few knight synergies that are vanilla enough to work. Living for the day of Sir Mountain Goat. Intrepid Hero Knight...

Cut Recruitment Officer to elimate any reference to "bottom of library". Added Green 1s: Copperhorn Scout Moss Viper Stampede Driver Ivy Elemental I wish Ulvenwald Tracker made more sense, so close to being a cool card. Also Zodiac Monkey really deserves a less odd name. Adding a few other...

Current version is here: Flavour Judge's Tower More instances of firebreathing to add, to match Wall of Fire: Shivan Dragon Firebreathing Torch Drake Dragon Hatchling First pass on 1 CMC Creatures: Suntail Hawk Dauntless Bodyguard Gavony Trapper Infantry Veteran Recruitment Officer Merfolk...

First card that came to mind is Phylactery Lich but I don't think I'll be able to get the artifact count high enough to make it playable. Want to include a wall cycle, candidates are: Wall of Essence Wall of Glare Wall of Frost Fog Bank Wall of Blood Wall of Fire Wall of Lava Wall of Vines...

I had a battlebox in RTR era that I used for kitchen table games and to get my housemates into the game, in reality it was 1000 bulk cards from ebay rather than anything tightly designed and curated, it was possibly the best magic I ever played. I've been inspired to build another one by the...

Love minimal fixing solutions like that! Why Evolving Wilds over Ash Barrens though? Barrens seems to have better play for proactive decks vs wilds.

I'd love to hear any other tips or thoughts you've got on Duplicate Sealed, I'm struggling! I started aimlessly populating with cards I liked at about the right power level, didn't realise how quickly I'd run out of space to make everything work the way I usually would with a 360+ cube. I don't...

Starting to populate the list... Laboratory Maniac - The greatest alt wincon ever printed? Spider Spawning - The greatest booster draft wincon ever? Assault Strobe - Modern infect was the deck I had most fun piloting, aggressive interactive combo. Infect doesn't play well with anything else so...

Worldknit is definitely questionable, I'm on the fence about the deck size issue but that might be because I always wanted to play Battle of Wits in modern. I don't think it's auto-cut because the 200 card deck is an opt-in experience, and we can make gameplay smoother by limiting shuffle...

Brewing and dueling are the core experience in magic, sometimes you're not in the mood to herd seven drafters and devote a whole evening to cubing. Sealed is the closest limited format to constructed, but the variance makes it a sucky experience. You're struggling for a functioning forty, while...

Yep, she's double sleeved, boxed and waiting. Probably a month or so until I get it drafted, I've got a box of Conspiracy: Take the Crown that my group wants to draft first (and that'll probably get the set cube treatment too). Thanks for the love man. I tried to do a draft of your cubes, but...

Doing a full draft sim seemed like too much hassle unless you're actually looking for a full emulation of the environment. Lower variance is better, as this isn't being replayed at the same rate as a actual set release and you want to confident that any time you pull this out you're getting...

Current list iteration: http://www.cubetutor.com/cubeblog/103630 Drafted a box of this recently, I missed out at the time. It stands up to the hype, so now the plan is to turn that box into a 360 cube. The cube is intended to simulate 3KTK but without the GRBS bombs and waste-of-ink cards...
