    Also, because I totally forgot about it, I also had this handy little Legend created a while back to help my drafters understand all the extra cube features: I've been using stickers in the inner sleeves to keep track of these various draft features and eventually made a handwritten legend...

    It would be using Photoshop to access the .psd file and making the change to the text. I'll give it a look when I have some time, should be a relatively simple fix.

    Totally forgot Renegade Rallier ws a card and that Felidar Retreat came out in ZNR. I've also had an Emeria Angel sitting in the sidelines for a bit that feels like it's worth moving over to the big leagues off this potential synergy alone. That's a sweet interaction that doesn't use up very...

    Here's the final version scaled down: And a direct link to the hosted file on Dropbox. Should be large/high enough resolution for you to get printed easily.

    What are your pet cards in cube? Which unique cards stick out in a cube list and make you want to try it out? Of the draft variants/additions you've tried over the years (ex. Utility Land Draft), what's been your favorite/the most interesting? What's the most interesting deck you've ever played...

    Yeah, but the foil from original Time Spiral is prohibitively expensive so I've been using the EMA copy with the FTV art for now: The original art is vastly superior. The good news is that this leads to side-upgrades elsewhere with this EMA Venser replacing the non-foil in my Aminatou EDH...

    I want a copy of just about everything on the Timeshifted sheet that I already have in Cube, but I also want it in foil with the classic shooting star. I'm a sucker for those old foils. It's bizarre to me that this is the one set in recent times that they just straight up won't have a collector...

    I'd say that they're just different ways to build a deck. CoCo is to give some extra reach to G/x Midrange lists that want to focus more on combat and outsizing the opponent, Pod is more for toolbox-y plays and maximizing ETBs. If I had to choose 1, I think Pod is just a more interesting puzzle...

    I'm super excited to be able to embed visual decklists. Makes it so much easier to do an archetype focused article when you can actually show off examples.

    Oh man, CubeCobra Cube overviews now have full markdown implemented. Articles too! I remember there were only a handful of basic options before, but there's so much you can do now. I must have missed it being highlighted in recent updates, but now you can get some really pretty overviews going...

    All good options from Onder, especially the ones that a little weaker and require additional pieces to work. I'd say that big thing that you should be aware of if you deploy this kind of system is what problem you're trying to solve. Doubling down on sweet cards is completely fine, but I think...

    If you're looking to beef up your G/x Aggro or Midrange strategies, I feel like doubling up on either of these guys could be pretty nice: Experiment One Pelt Collector I think Collector is better in a vacuum and has better upside overall, but Experiment One can get spicy and really help...

    The special versions of Foretell cards don't seem to have the reminder text. I just did a quick Scryfall search and the normal version of all Foretell cards have reminder text except for: Glorious Protector Quakebringer And based off the text box, it's due to space restraints. Every other...

    General The Duplicate Voucher System

    For aesthetics I'd agree, but when I was going through my cube I just didn't see any cards in blue I'd actually want to double up on with this system. I can reach out and ask him, should be relatively straightforward with the .psd template What are the 5 cards you'd want? Alternatively if...

    Jason Waddell's Cube

    Best case scenario for Thing in the Ice is playing it on T2, chaining enough spells to flip it by T5, then going to town. This is hoping that your opponent has no removal, isn't paying attention to what's happening, and that they don't interact in any meaningful way. It was sweet in a few...

    After having my cube featured on CubeCobra recently I've been getting more and more questions regarding my Duplicate Voucher system. I had this draft sitting around the last few months on CubeCobra waiting for some touch-ups and figured now was as good a time as any to finish it up...

    Article ChannelFireball: Utility Land Draft

    I think the problem when you get too narrow with ULD inclusions is that they end up competing with everything else available and might just not stack up in an actual draft. You don't want so many options that your drafters are overwhelmed, but you also don't want anything to jump out power level...

    I'd go with Go For the Throat, Ultimate Price, and Heartless Act in that order. GFTH is just wildly efficient and hits just about every target you'd need in Cube and of the conditional removal you've listed, it's the most universally applicable. I'd say 9/10 times it's just straight up removal...
