    General Who's the beatdwon - my college project

    Hey friends, I have a somewhat strange request today. Maybe you can help me with something I need to do for college, especially finding suitable sources. I'm studying to be a teacher and in a seminar we were given the task of planning a school lesson in detail and according to all the rules -...

    Ravnica Block Cube

    I promise, this is the last thread. https://cubecobra.com/cube/overview/5ce3c87a-d756-4a7c-a5da-dce0c5f5c7cc I've tried to manifest my love for the original ravnica block numerous times. Actually, it was what brought me into the world of cube in the first place. But RAV block is tricky. It is...

    Card/Deck [MCD] Let's talk about tricks, baby!

    Traditionally, combat tricks have had a very hard time in cube. Removal tends to be very efficient and instant speed too, more often than not. Also, games don't always revolve around combat, when players cheat big fatties into play or cast Brainfreeze with a double digit storm count. Even if...

    Sets Battle for Baldur's Gate: Testing and includes

    People here prefered the extra testing thread for new sets, so someone has to do it. And since Trainmaster seems busy and I want to share what I'm eyeing (and thereby have a note for myself), I'll try my best to do his part. For my Casual Champions Cube, I like some of the elegant designs...

    General Edict Effects in Cube

    Diabolic Edict I've learned to love edict effects before I even knew about cube, through formats like legacy and pauper. So I've always progressed with the assumption, that cards like Diabolic Edict are powerful interaction spells, and I've been cubing them since the very beginning pf my cube...

    Ravnic's Custom Pokémagic-Cube

    As some of you might've read in @Brad 's Pokémon thread, I had been designing a similar project for a while. I tried as well to create a custom cube, that's a hybrid of magic (mechanically) and Pokémon (flavorwise). After I aw all the cool designs Brad postet and the appreciation he got for...

    Ravnic's Arena Cube

    With some time over the holydays, I totally reworked my arena cube, and it's become much more ravnic-ish as a result. It has more themes (including madness!), is more thorough and I reduced the multicolor focus a little bit. There is still great fixing and such, though, so no worries...

    Guild's Path

    I've scrapped my ravnica cube. As some of you might know or have guessed, I started playing the best game ever aka Magic: the Gathering when the original Ravnica block came out. And I still love it and I get that warm, fuzzy feeling of pacifism nostalgia just by looking at the cards. However...

    Sets (MID) Innistrad: Midnight Hunt Testing/Includes Thread

    After all, this set has some cards that I'm interested in, even though I completely ignored all daybound, decayed and pushed stats. Includes: That's my biggest hit. Enables madness and selfmill and acts as a payoff for both while just being a good card on it's own. I'd actually prefer the...

    Ravnic's Arena Cube - I wanna play with you

    I've got this idea and than I just did it. I created a historic, arena cube, so I and hopefully many others can draft it online and then play it on the client. To make it less likely, that someone doesn't have the cards they drafted in their collection, or not the necessary wild cards, I kept it...

    Ravnica's 9th District

    When me and my best friend started playing magic in 2005, we each got a starter deck from 9th edition. We soon followed them up with more cards from that set as well as with starter decks and boosters from the original ravnica block. For me, this was the time, where there was the most "magic" to...

    General Self-Sufficient Tribal Payoffs

    While I don't really like the classic, parasitic tribal deck in cube, I really enjoy cards like Imperious Perfect, Graveborn Muse or Anowon, the Ruin Sage, as these cards might appeal to decks with very few or even zero cards of that tribe - and still can change the way one drafts. So I thought...

    Card/Deck Supporting Monocolor. How and why?

    I am for a while now trying to weave a monocolor theme into my cube, comparable to what you've seen in sets like Theros or Eldraine. I'm still working on the perfect execution. It is a theme that I rarely see mentioned or when it seems to have a bad reputation because people think it brings to...

    Card/Deck Equipment Matters (white+)

    After I tried out cycling (was too narrow) and "small creatures matter" (was too lose), I now settled for Equipment as my white centered archetype. And as it seems to be a theme wizards really likes (Eldraine, Z3ndikar, seemingly Kaldheim) I thought it would be cool to discuss it's possibilities...

    General Timespiral Remastered Timeshifts

    So, in Time Spiral remastered we will get modern cards in the classic frame. I know here are some people who prefered it, me personally, I haven't been so excited for something since they announced Return to Ravnica. So, for now, we already got these three spoiled: Path to Exile Chalice of the...

    General Wx Archetypes

    Guys, I really need your wisdom. I have a theme, centered in each color, in addition to my guild archetypes, but I can't just find anything in white. My other colors have cool themes like devotion or classics like super ramp, or they build around a specific effect like wildfire. But white? I...

    Card/Deck Wx Cycling

    I want to discuss with you a potential lower powered pivot archetype, made possible with Ikoria. In my cube I have a strong theme for every color combination and something less dominant centered in each individual color. Only white was lacking something cohesive. Since I was already trying to...

    Card/Deck U/B Ninjutsu

    I think I finally found a way to change my Dimir archetype into Ninjas. I envision the archetype not as actual tribal but as a tempo deck getting value from the ninjas ninjutsu and saboteur abilities. But first I'd like to check if the riptide gang has (as usual) something useful to say to that...

    General 1-Drop Aggro vs. 2-Drop Aggro

    Back duringvmy mtg salvation times I got teached that aggro always needs to start witz a 1-drop to be competitive. And while I lowered the power level of my aggro dudes to fit my overall environment, I always stuck to that premise. But here in these boards I often heard about "2-drop aggro" ...

    Card/Deck Ideas for a Microsealed Cube

    Hey guys, I really enjoyed the Microsealed Format that was eplaines in Jason's Article on CfB with very tiny tweaks like just using the normal lands from my cube. But I wasn't quite pleased with the feeling. My cube, like most here, is designed to give consistency and redundancy to certain...
