Perfect.

How many Izzet cards are you running? My sections sizes are mostly consistent (~ 3 per guild, with some wiggle room, e.g. Far // Away as the 4th Dimir), so I don't really have to run any "bad" Izzet cards.

Hey Justin, thanks for your enthusiasm! I'm not terribly active on Facebook, at least not in a Magic sense, so I'm not really aware of the various groups that exist. I will say that anything that pushes the cube community in a more positive direction is a good thing in my book. I'll be sure to...

It's less that you have to drop it but more than you need to be aware of it. The right density of gold cards depends on a lot of different variables. Mono hybrid is fine in my book (I do it myself, technically), but the real issue is controlling your low demand (i.e. gold) cards.

Hi Bryan! Welcome to the site! As far as a store-owned cube goes, I don't see any compelling reason for it to be one type of cube or another. Are you building this exclusively from cards from your local store's inventory? What I would be most concerned about when talking to a store owner is...

Yes, I agree, it's not really relevant for cube design. It's still useful to be aware of how it affects the dynamic. E.g. if you're trying to push more multicolor aggro, you might want more cards in the vein of Rakdos Cackler.

Daze and Spell Pierce are fantastic. At least here.

Part of the idea of too much hybrid is that you can't actually cut card space. I don't think draft would be all that great if all the cards were colorless.

I don't get to choose the art on CFB. Wait, for our site I do. Let me get on that.

Far // Away is a fun, powerful and well-designed card. I have not tested Turn // Burn.

Yeah, Scrivener has been pretty useless around here. I'll probably slot Wretched Anurid back in soon.

With all the Eldrazi and elementals I might need to track down a copy of:

How many actual Eldrazi creatures do you think a cube like this needs?

In my cube Geist is really not even overpowered, and is a good design I think. These cards all seem very environment dependent, so it's hard to make a statement in the abstract. I'd rather have Geist than Invisible Stalker in my cube though. EDIT: I also don't run Rofellos, but mainly because I...

Ah, that'd be great if you stopped by Antwerp. Let me know ahead of time and I can gather 6 of our finest for a draft.

Oh, worst of all at some point Ultra Pro changed the size of their sleeves. I went to buy some replacements and they are differently sized from the old ones! This is a hate crime. Don't buy from Ultra Pro. I mean, maybe I should have read the small print from behind the counter that said "new...

Yeah, we've been using High Market in the main cube (also in the utility land draft) and it's a great extra sac outlet for the decks that load up on Threaten effects.
