I mean whatever works for you is fine I guess. Most draft boosters end up being 14 cards actual cards ignoring the basic land which is usually just the 15th final "pick" unless they're doing something different with that card slot (gates in Ravnica sets, snow basic in Kaldheim, etc.). There's...

I use Cubeamajigs and have the cube double-sleeved so the hard limit for a given pack is 15 cards. I tend to have the cube all pre-shuffled and packs ready to go the night before so we can just get started as soon as we set up. I could theoretically go down some cards per pack and go up in...

Looks like I'm back up on Cobra as a featured cube. Added in the updated duplicate vouchers + put some cards in the basic land box for post-draft ease of access. Give it a try and lemme know what you guys come up with!

Waiting on some cards to arrive before I get around to snapping some pics of shiny cardboard as promised last week, but I've been mulling around an update to 435 in the future. 420 is a real good spot for my cube where I have the density necessary for the archetypes I'm looking to support and...

I love it for the Reanimator decks that pop up in my cube now and again. It's exactly the type of branching card you need to keep yourself afloat early picking off small threats and padding your life total a little as you extend into the mid-game for a Damnation or Languish to clean up the...

That's fair, it can crop up now and then and I've definitely been stuck with a Shriekmaw in G1 against another black deck before. However, I would argue that these situations serve to bump up the value of true unconditional removal during the draft. In many scenarios a copy of Go For the Throat...

I'd second that. I was very wary of diving into GoT again after how the original series ended, had sworn off it completely, but I put this on the night it was released just to give it a try. I was hooked again within 15 minutes and it's only gotten better and better with each episode. It just...

I have a 420 cube right now. I wanted to have more than a 360 for variety's sake (I usually only get 6-8 drafters nowadays), but 450 was too large and unwieldy to maintain the card density for archetypes in the past. I've had a 450 before in like 2017 and it was great when I could get 10...

On the contrary, I think the more I've seen the more I've been impressed with Sheoldred, the Apocalypse and the gameplay it brings to the table. So much so that I put in an order for a copy earlier this evening. It's a perfect card for any kind of grindy black archetype centered in U/B or G/B...

Well, sucks for them in lacking the foresight to avoid spending $1000 on randomized proxies (this still sounds so fucking stupid to me). If people want to be that loose with their money then good luck to them. The product itself can exist for the whales that want it, I'd never entertain the...

No surprise to me. Chris Cocks was promoted to CEO of Hasbro not even a year back, we'll be seeing these new moves and implementations a couple of years out. Get ready for product dilution out the ass with even more SL collabs and Universes Beyond. I had a feeling things were going to go south...

You have reached the stage of enlightenment known as Nuclear Gandhi.

Am I the only one in this forum who's actually played organized card flipping before? Like half of the comments I've seen on this forum are so obviously written by non-athletes that it's almost humorous. When I was in high school (3 year starter for our varsity card flipping team) I would get a...

What an abomination. Is Docent of Perfection the only card that makes these? I can't understand the thought process at all.

For sure. I mean, they're just crappy proxies with cropped art and signatures cut off from what I've seen this morning. Nothing all that new or special here, I can't see where they'd see it a failure unless they just don't sell. But that's impossible; some Magic players have the worst impulse...

$999 for proxies. This is some clown shit. Maro's next Spin Class is gonna be one for the ages.

It all comes down to the power level and speed of your environment. Is it slow enough that you can afford to leave mana up for a bounce spell and then take part of a turn to re-deploy a card? Will you be punished for durdling around or do you have openings to loop value? Do you have decks that...

New duplicate voucher has been mocked up by my buddy. I'll get around to printing them sometime in the next couple of weeks when I get to physically updating the cards in my cube. I've pretty much just had the last couple months of swaps just sitting around in a section of my binder for now...

Raise the CMC on Oko, change the starting loyalty to something manageable, and change Beast Within to a -1 (this is still the most egregious thing whenever I see the card) and he'd be much more fair to play against. But then it's just a wholly different card. The big issue is that the...

Those Transformers cards just look horrendous to me art wise. They look like bad custom Magic cards.
