I am much less strategic and intentional with my cube designs, since they only get drafted a couple times a year. That having been said: I think "3-power 2-drops" is the way. I personally like it when games have room to breathe, and even if I had a dead-ahead aggro option in my cube, none of my...

Oh snap I completely forgot about Provoke, lol

Felt cute, might delete later, idk

The sheer pleasure of opening my LGS's singles page and finding all the delicious commons and uncommons I want for my Peasant cube is so scintillating it should be narrated by Tim Curry.

Werewhat has finally given me the rules language I need to complete my Transmogrify novelty cube. (It's a cube where all the creatures are Humans, but they all have werewolf rules that transform them into random creatures from a separate, shared deck, which makes them behave like double-faced...

The commander set had some surprising hits for Welder's Workshop, my graveyard-artifact-token cube. Caretaker's Talent > Skrelv's Hive This is simply a delightful card for my cube, rewarding all token strategies and providing the kind of fun value engine I enjoy. Skrelv's Hive has the benefit...

Let's start with Multivalent, my peasant cube: Slam Dunks: Head of the Homestead > Bestial Menace Bestial Menace is a pet card of mine that I used to play alongside Cone of Flame because I like counting. But the hybrid cost on Head of the Homestead is valuable enough to make the switch, and...

Bushy Bodyguard I love this guy. So much flexibility, and so elegantly laid out. Not to mention the very cool squirrel warrior art.

In the event of a draw, victory goes to the cube with the fewest votes. Doesn't make much sense, but hey, I don't make the rules!

They accidentally only printed Reach on Spiders for 20 years, and now it looks weird on anything else. Oops, I just got myself excited for Seasons of Bloomburrow, the return to Bloomburrow in 2026, where all sorts of bug-folk show up, and some of them are Spiders.

Lol. Lmao, even

Seedglaive Mentor Meanwhile I've been staring at Valiant all day without realizing it triggers off Equip abilities.

Osteomancer Adept is an early standout for me. Looks like I'll have to wait for Junk tokens (thought they were a sure thing for the red/green raccoon gang). Meanwhile I'm always thrilled to see more hybrid stuff. The rat, the lizard, and the rabbit are my favorites of the group!

This set was particularly exciting for my Peasant cube for one reason: new Bestow cards! I've always wanted to see Bestow return, since it was introduced at such a low ebb in the game's power level. MH3 really delivered on this axis, and as a bonus delivered some cool multicolor cards and a...

Really hoping to see Glimmers at uncommon and common, and I'm excited to see Delirium in the set, too. Hoping to see a card with a TV on it that has two or more Channel abilities. Maybe in a commander deck? It would be cool of the Wickerfolk are green artifact creatures, like that Timber Paladin.

Saving Space Here for Something Very Intelligent and Well-Considered Which I Will Someday Write Regarding this Cube.

Multivalent Multivalent is a multicolor-driven Peasant cube. It's a showcase of all the great breadth of Magic gameplay, and a kind of proof-of-concept that this game doesn't require expensive rares to be fun. My goal is to include as many multicolor cards as possible without breaking the...

OMG, I really hope it's Junk. Time to go re-read Watership Down.

Maelstrom Mania Invasion of Alara Maelstrom Madness is a 180-card cube that features 30 (!!!) copies of Invasion of Alara Basically, the cube's signature spell does a huge amount of stuff. Your goal is to draft a deck that can do all of the following better than your opponent: A: CAST...
