    BirdsOfParadise's Cube

    Here I am, after a hiatus. Several folks have pointed out that it makes sense to have a higher number of cards come from the "unknown" camp than the "strong" camp, in order to ensure turnover.

    I never though of doing it that way! I have already generated the next card pool (which is tedious) so I'll go ahead with what I have, but your idea seems worth a try if we continue having low deck variety. My hope, however, is that people will fight over red and green enough that they'll be...

    BirdsOfParadise's Cube

    I joined this site to be able to make pretty pictures of the decks that my friends and I draft. My cube contains one copy of every card that I own. To each card is associated a strength rating, a knowledge rating (how well the strength is known), and a color alignment. Before a draft session...
