Agree with much of what has been said. I apologize for missing the universal mana fixers in the lands section, but you are correct that your total fixing % is higher than what I had calculated, and roughly just below the normal numbers for a 360 cube. I. However, everything that Onder is...

Made a couple sealed pools to look at, and flashed through a few first picks: looks promising. Blue looks less overwhelming than it normally does, which is nice. Its refreshing to have our starting point being whether red 4-6 drops are maybe too good. Did a draft, and was happy overall. First...

Looks good. I'll post more later, but after a quick eyeballing, this curve in red I would keep an eye on: flametongue kavu pia and kiran nalaar goblin dark-dwellers crater hellion I think thats your biggest concentration of powerful ETB effects. I would imagine, at a minimum, that they...

I don't actually like etb effects very much at this point, and think the etb deck is a fallacy, but if we're going to go down that route might as well make the best of it.

I don't do a ULD and prefer to change the card population before considering changing draft structure or rules.

Opinion on energy, in terms of elegance. I can add green and red energy makers with little issue of the mechanic feeling vestigial, since they are connected to creatures that act as their own energy dump, and the use of energy adds +1 +1 counters, which synergizes with the G/W counter lords...

Thats exactly how burnt out lawyers sound. Guy is way too focused on winning and losing, and isn't enjoying the cities, game, or people aka actual life. When you're always chasing the future you can never enjoy life, and you get stuck in these downward depression spirals as all of your...

Thats a really good topic for discussion. I've strayed away from it because its one of those topics where people are going to view it as you talking at them rather then to them, but yeah, for example I hate giant card patches. All they do generally is add novelty to a format, and subtract from...

Holy god...you're right. Is this cube design hell we've entered? Have they checkmated themselves? Too funny.

Do you have any CT lists? I would like to draft your 360 too. I'm hoping you win as you seem to have put the most care in your submission.

Thats the most comedic part about this entire debacle though. How do you fix Klug's submission? You cut a bunch of the narrow cards, increase fixing density, and than begin narrowing the power band, which invariably means tweaking things upwards to legacy cube power level. Otherwise you end up...

Thats miles better than what I was getting. I had to toss both drafts back, as I got unplayable piles. Fixing seems to be a real struggle, and packs feel small due to density of virtual non-picks due to the wide power level, bad fixing that further narrows choices (its 67 lands total!), and lots...

I agree. The branding of the cubes that were submitted from here was pretty awful, to be fair. Still, if they are going to put it up to a vote, it kind of undermines the process if one or two contestants are able to abuse the process, and direct voters to vote for them. Really wish they had...

You know that cube probably took about 15 minutes to make: all he had to do was have deck lists up and dump them into cube tutor, trimming some cards away so it didn't go over 540. And that just goes to show: the winning cube here was the one that could most aggregate a singleton power max...

Right, but when you consider their reasons for doing this, it was unlikely they were being authentic. It was always going to be a business decision first and foremost, and they were going to pick conservatively off of what they thought would serve them the best $$$$. I probably would have done...
