Yes! This does include cards that don't fit your criterium (like Frontier Bivouac), but it's a small result set that can be checked by hand, and this pattern guarantees you don't miss any cards.Anyone know how I search up cards on Scryfall that is Temur commander legal, requires all three colors but isn't actually green-blue-red?
Example:
This is commander Abzan legal, requires all three colors but isn't actually black, green and white.
Underwhelming 
Temur needs some love. But then again, we've only really had one two sets about Temur ever.
Thanks @Onderzeeboot and @sigh

Huh. I hadn't considered that counts as c=rug. Ok, new query! Sadly nothing we didn't already find between the two of us...
Why does BUG have four more options!?
Brad keeps bribing MaRo to ensure he can play the majority of multicolored cards.
It's a combination of Tatsunari, Toad Rider and the face generals from the Commander 2019 Morph deck.
The morph deck has no impact on it. BUG's extras are Tatsunari, Ana Battlemage, Jorn, God of Winter, Savage Gorilla and Urborg Elf, compared to RUG's sole Rattleclaw Mystic. The remaining cards for each belong to the same cycles.

Oh yeah, I know which cards cause the difference, I just don't understand how BUG got thrown an extra bone multiple times
Getting to the point on the PokeCube that I need to worry about ratios a bit. What are useful to note, in your opinion?
onedrop
wrath
removal
counterspell
Those are my relevant tags so far. What else do you guys suggest? There's fewer sort options in MSE, so I have to add a note and then filter that way.

i don’t do any FORMAL tag tracking beyond a quick “cut this” tag, but if i did…
trainwreck prevention (never enough)
mana dork
shock
bolt
doom blade
thoughtseize
counterspell
cantrip
wrath
oring (which is poor shorthand for “thing that kills noncreature threats”
4+ drops with no alternate cost (cut these, add more 1 drops)

woah blacksmithy, way too much granularity on the removal spells for my taste the distinction between mass removal and pinpoint removal, and maybe noncreature removal, is enough as far as tags go, imho.

I finally got the chance to play this deck against the kids. The two that I did it to cracked up about it because I kept throwing seven lands down and drawing seven cards, then tapped 40+ lands to kill them. They had a good time and I explained that it shows the flaws of the rule set.
That said, they've moved on primarily to Commander with traditional rules without me having to expose the other format's flaws.
i’m glad it was all in good fun for everyone!
I've been really getting into Battle Box lately and I think other people should consider giving it a try. I've been putting a lot of time into posts regarding my own battle box that I've been working on if people want to get a better idea of what the format is about. Check it out if you're interested!

Battle box is super cool, and I should get to updating mine!
Black Market Connections Battlebox, when?

The Treasure token pushes pretty hard against the identity of the format
I honestly want to build a Battle Box with all of the random treasure cards, though. Seems like a good way to play out all of the random treasure//big spell synergies without having to worry about bad mana.The Treasure token pushes pretty hard against the identity of the format

I feel like it can work, especially if you fill the Box with a higher density of pip-heavy cards.
It'd certainly have a different feel to it, which is entirely what I'm here for.
