    Tribal is a little harder to Jumpstart. Most of the cards are good in Wx aggro-mid kind of a deck, but you might want to cut the Banner and Sanctuary in favor of something more generic and a Vivid. You actually only have 6 Dogs in your 40 card deck. That said, I think there's a good chance we...

    The Black Cube

    I'm cutting these for now, but I wanted to note them here because they may be good later and I want to be sure there's a reminder for me somewhere slitherwisp hooded blightfang labyrinth raptor These all have the potential to shift your draft focus without being overbearing, which I like, but...

    I would make sure my Islands are anything but an actual island ;) Is there a way to specify an art when posting card images? Other than using an [img ]? Glad people are liking the designs, Humpty.

    The Black Cube

    I added some ninjas and a few, mostly blue, creatures that are or can be hard to block. I also did v1 of the enchantments update. Gonna do some drafts to look for anything that feels out of place, feel free to join in.

    Attack on Cube (2021 Update)

    I don't like Animal Sanctuary, Cathedral of War, or the quad Squad Hawks. Colorless lands need a real impact and picking up enough hawks to be worthwhile isn't too likely to me, whereas 8post could work. Maybe add a Vesuva? 60 lands in a 360 is a lot, especially when Wilds is so versatile. I'd...

    You know, if you gave every deck its own XY fetch and XY shock (or dual), then you could make sure then fetch is tri-fixing, assuming you pair the deck with either YZ or XZ, which would also have its own fetch/shock. Obviously, that adds up monetarily unless you wanted to proxy. I also think...

    starfield of nyx Trying to add BWu enchantments. G doesn't look like it's going to work for me unless I change my ramp suite to land auras, which I won't do. Current narrow payoffs are Doomwake Giant, Zur the Enchanter, and Alela, Artful Provocateur but that locks the deck into Esper and I'd...

    You could pass out random commanders to people and then they take decks to support the commander. Gives a bit of decision making while still being really quick to get going.

    I'd personally feel crushed if my fetch got Stifled and see that as no fun at all.

    You HAVE to add Wilds or Vivids or Thrivings to the land sections. All basics in a mana base that's likely to end up 3c isn't gonna fly. I'd suggest several multicolor lands per pack, as you don't want color screw to define what you're doing. I might even build this like it's a cube. How can...

    I looked up all ENCHANTMENTS! Scriptures is too scary to me as a board wrath into yard wrath. That's a lot going on for my format. Definitely have enjoyed the couple sagas I've actually had a chance to play with. They feel like nerfed walkers. Get a couple small value turns and one bigger...

    Sets Jumpstart Previews

    Jumpstart is either based on or the same as another game, Smash Up, that gives you two ~20 card decks and you mash em together and play. I considered something like this after having played that for the reasons you stated, but the deckbuilding part of the process is really the best part of cube...

    Makes sense on Rite. I was thinking like japahn, where you're getting a ton of bodies and that seems good, but it's a terrible top deck. I already have Eldest. Card's so good. Just trying to up the enchantment density right now
