I am absolutely stealing this idea, fantastic write-up!

I found this list in a .txt file on my computer so I've uploaded it to CubeCobra for posterity. Check it out here: https://cubecobra.com/cube/overview/3025abac-7b12-4760-aa6b-345e7266768e A weird thing is the maybeboard didn't parse correctly so it's listed as a 483 cube but you can see the...

##### White: White is a frustrating set of planewalkers that really don't have a lot of immediate or obvious hooks into what I consider good gameplay. I almost want to create custom cards for these walkers because hexproof sucks. - Teyo - hexproof, defender - Wanderer - Exile, damage prevention...

I've been doing some test drafts of the WAR environment and I'm realizing I'm missing the mark just a little bit with what I have going on in all the themes. There are a couple of issues I'd like to think about: - I'm passing the uncommon planeswalkers a lot so far and I don't really feel all...

Starting to rethink a lot of the aspects of the list I have down. I think it gets away from what makes WAR a great format a lot, like there's just kind of random bombs and power outliers that I've included for no real reason except that I liked them in other draft formats. They're certainly...

I'm listening to [LPR Barash Files 001](https://luckypaper.co/podcast/231-the-barash-files-001-the-principles-of-game-design/) while at the gym and I'm just gonna jot down notes: - just get this thing to playtest - a card looks so different when it's in a pack versus when it's on its own in a...

Continuing to build on some ideas for cube today. Some things that have crossed my mind: - Historic triggers include artifacts, sagas, and legendaries. Planeswalkers are legendary, so there's a great density of historic triggers incident in the cube already. - Artifact support for things like...

Oh hey, it's been a while. I never mentioned that there's a list now. It's 360 cards. It's at the point now where my musings and theory-craft are insufficient and it just needs to be playtested. Check it out if you'd like https://cubecobra.com/cube/list/e8652699-1a72-4490-8b00-3450e32c4d1f I'm...

Wow Maze's End is not set up for success in a Grid Draft format. I've cut it (and the gates) for another set of top end cards. Are they fun? Are they good? I dunno!

I wanted to make a space slow enough for Trading Post to be a core engine. Introducing, the Eldrazi-Post Nano-72 Cube: https://cubecobra.com/cube/overview/f56b9453-9ccd-4b1f-bf14-d59fe0bbadc5 The Eldrazi-Post is a slow, mostly colorless micro-cube centered around resource accumulation, deck...

I started drafting something together for this and didn't make it far, and I'm afraid I won't have time to finish. But I'd like to post my idea anyways because it might be neat. The idea was 30 Stonework Packbeast, 30 Dismember as the only removal, and no Swamps, black mana, or lifegain...

Of course I'm still thinking about that WAR cube I haven't built yet, this made me do a double-take: Marionette Apprentice Lazotep Reaver

I've logged in several times this month just to check this number

I have paper cards again: I've come into a huge box of draft common/uncommons from the RTR - Kaladesh era and I think a cube needs to be made of it! I think my approach will be to build out some mini-decks to find the themes that actually work (with a big side-eye towards Cipher) and go from...
