We've cloned your cube for an Extra Life event, and we played it with 7 drafters.
Here are a few lists! This first deck was strong and went 3-1 or so in single games. Clickslither is a bomb.
This next deck had the signature moment of the night.
Something stupid happened to his opponent all of a sudden: the combo below delivered a one shot, taking the opponent from 20 to zero.
This deck wins when Goblin King gets on the table:
I first picked a green creature and then the table gave me all the green and white big creatures plus Hurloon and Roc and all the fixing. Gilded Lotus is a bomb. This deck was a little too good. In the future the group will prevent something like this from happening again, I would expect. I did lose one game quite decidedly to Goblin King.
Improvised Armor is a handful in this cube. Very strong card.
It just cracks me up to see some of these silly cards in a pack, like Goblins of the Flarg. I think the draft portion of this was really fun.
The missing four packs that were left out of our 7 player draft had some bangers, and my deck had a disproportionate amount of strong cards. Unfortunately this left 2-3 of the decks a little thin on power. I'm really hoping to get this back to the table again some day, and I think we could put on a more balanced and competitive draft. I'll have to think on how to explain and introduce this a bit better so everyone understands that a 3/3 creature is an overpowered bomb in this format.
I made a point to include 128 different mountains with different artwork, and as many old ones as possible. Very fun. It was also fun to include a mix of versions of the burn spells, so there's Portal stuff to go along with white borders and new frames. I like the janky misfit aesthetic, laden with nostalgia.
Playing an unsleeved, no deckbuilding desert bar cube was great! There's zero unnecessary fussing about.
For the cube packs, I used plain Shipping Shield cardboard packs with the top flaps cut off. My usual cube packs would have been too hoity toity. Ten cards can fit, but it's a little bit tight. If I was really concerned about the card corners I wouldn't do this, but I also wouldn't play them unsleeved in the first place.
Thanks for designing and publishing such a cool and quirky cube!
