I was thinking of the implications of something similar. For example, two-color decks splashing a third would have 3n picks to get their third color (where 'n' is how many groups of 5 of these you included). I haven't *reallllly* thought about it, but it seems interesting. Sadly, the logistical...

Exactly! The niche card support is one of the big draws to designing for the grid format. I'd love to see a lower-powered graveyard grid (possibly with a lands theme). The set-inspired grids have felt pedestrian, so I would work on going far beyond retail limited for inspiration (unless you...

My brain is not parsing out your question correctly; would you please restate it? And thank you for the interest! Kirblinx has a lot of fantastic pieces of feedback scattered throughout our grid sessions if you want to consider some other choices prior to making any decisions...

Thanks for enjoying, Alfonzo! The genus of this rule was a desire for some level of uncertainty that a particular card or combination of cards will show up in any given draft. Since the grids are being drafted in 16 three-by-three groups, 144 cards are needed for a grid draft and anything...

Updated 2021.07.16 Active Grid Populations Nonblack, 3-Guild Ravnica: https://cubecobra.com/cube/list/5ed28c78d44a3c102e136a0a This grid is an updated Ravnica-Block-Limited-themed grid; the one that made it to the refinement stage. It features a focus on Boros with support for Selesnya and...

Updated 2021.07.16 - please note many of these links are unfortunately now broken as I moved to CubeCobra. I will endeavor to catalog some of these grids in a later post. Retired One-on-One Draft Populations Some history on these grids captured in post...

Updated 2021.07.16 - update to approach & methodology For those who haven't read Jason's CFB article on 4c grid, I suggest doing so prior to continuing on: http://www.channelfireball.com/home/grid-tenchester-and-cutting-a-color-from-the-cube/ Why am I obsessed with grid drafting (beyond it...

I've drafted four cubes with "free" cards: Two with ULDs. With minor fixing lands included, the Rochester component at the end felt a little imbalanced (when my deck was feigning for another fixer, and I was late in the pick order). It didn't really change the "cube-ness" of the experience...

You Are Trying To Support Too Many Color Combinations And That Is Why You Are Playing Too Many Lands

I have a noncyclic manabase in a grid that has seemed to work out well. Maybe Kirblinx can add to it as he had suffered the design on a few occasions. http://www.cubetutor.com/visualspoiler/59149 Auntie's Hovel to support gobbos better than control. WB painland to support Cabal Therapy into...

I like dual color lands that decks will play if they only have one of the colors: Temple of Deceit Dimir Aqueduct These lands have subtle spell-like qualities that warrant inclusion for non manafix reasons. There is no reason for them to go toooo late and provide free or useless fixing.

I didnt pay mtg origins limited, but that 6-drop spider makes me happy. Very happy.

Sadly, I couldn't get into the CRJ album (as i do enjoy some bubblegum pop with female vox). Right now, I'm hoping to see another Hayley Stewart involved project (darkwave synthpop stuffs). Not 100% on the songs, but i LOVE her voice

I won a mbs som som draft where i kept no lands on the draw. .. and curved out to turn 5. Mss and nms are two of my favorite all-time formats. More-so than Isd x3. The bombs can be annoying, but drafting had soooo much tension.

A friend and I made "Chess" decks patterned after a Duelist magazine article. I got the white deck. Who do you think won more? Black Knight Unholy Strength VERSUS White Knight Holy Strength

have you only been playing for 5 or so years?! wow, quick learner.

How many total entries did we put up? Not a lot of discussion on reddit or twitter about it, so i wonder how many total submitted.

What creatures have drawbacks but might be playable if a lot of creatures have drawbacks? Sea Drake Master of the Feast etc...

I have this in my Pikula tribute grid, but it's yet to been played. Hoping to see it in (1) Replenish/Starfield of Nyx, (2) 4c control or (3) midrange RW (with Thick-Skinned Goblins).

nope!
