    General The Duplicate Voucher System

    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...

    General Archetype Spotlight: U/R Artifacts

    Archetype Spotlight: Blue Red Artifacts (Midrange/Combo) Hey guys! It's been a while since I've done an in-depth primer (almost 3 years, wow) but I've been having a lot of fun with implementing and tweaking an artifacts archetype into my cube environment over the last two months and figured...

    Sets [M20] Core Set 2020

    I guess we're just going to have a perpetual spoiler season from now on. Three new Chandra's spoiled for Core Set 2020: Smaller ones are cute, big one is an insane finisher. Uncounterable, plus 2 to make an emblem that can stack up, and it goes up to 8 loyalty? This card is very very strong.

    Lorwyn Reloaded - Tribal Cube (360)

    So I began playing Magic again around M14 and missed a lot of the sets that had come in years previous. The last time I had played prior to that was casually with friends back in elementary school, not really knowing the nuances of the game. I ended up missing a ton of cool blocks and one of...

    Sets [OGW] Oath of the Gatewatch Spoiler Thread

    Spoilers are going to start up soon enough, these are a few images that popped up on Reddit earlier today. I don't know how legit they are, but they could just be really really good fakes. If so, best fakes ever:

    Shamim's Cube

    I've been interested in cube ever since I first read one of Waddell's articles way back in Spring and participated in a couple of cube drafts on campus at my university. I've been a longtime listener of Maro's Drive To Work podcasts as well and have been intrigued by his thoughts on game design...
