      The nice thing about contact like this is because they can be revisited over greeter amounts of time so there should be a bit of leverage for since I haven’t seen a good video about two headed giant, in commander outside of battle bond a few years ago.

    Cube curation is a deck builder's paradise, and can be done with decent results on a budget. I love my cube and it surprises me that more people don't want jump in. Big props to Prof for spreading cube love.

      And on the other side of the spectrum, for those with an extensive collection at hand, Cube is also a great way to share it and give friends the opportunity to draft and play some powerful and expensive cards at no cost.

    For what it's worth, I built a 360 cube a few years back and it's been my baby ever since. I love the fact that it adds life to cards that you wouldn't normally use in constructed - and its an awesome way to have friends play whenever you hang without having to worry about bringing decks everywhere. Plus, if the cube is designed well, it does give everybody a fair chance to win (so less power level discussions, etc.) For those who are on the fence of building up a cube, I recommend it - it really is fun and helps you appreciate more magic cards.

    • @moxcube
      @moxcube Год назад +5

      Our playgroup used to have power level discussions all the time, so I built a cube to even the playing field. We stopped playing Commander for a good 5 years or so and only did cube drafts and legacy. In the last couple years we started playing Commander again and guess what discussions happen all then time again... 😅

    Its kinda sad these videos don't get the love they deserve. they've helped me re-understand this game that I've fallen back in love with after a solid decade+ of not playing. I was thinking of making a cube of my old 2013 core and the Innistrad / Avacyn sets after watching this.

    Hey Professor,
    Just wanted to say I really appreciate all the quality information you give out on your channel. My wife and I have gotten into MTG, and it is because of many of your shuffle up and play videos that I learned the mechanics way better than by just reading the starter manual. My wife and I picked up the starter decks for 2023 to start off with. I played dragons and she played the other. We had fun with that, then I got the starter commander decks, she wanted the blue and white for the angels and I got the green and red for the dragons. We started with those and have been morphing them slowly by buying cheaper singles, no singles over 10$. I've turned mine into a miirym deck, so I can utilize the dragons from both the starter deck and commander starter deck, and my wife has stuck with the blue and white, adding angels and cards to aid the deck. Amazing that the starter decks for 2023 and the starter commander decks created a good foundation for building out 2 more specialized commander decks. Just wanted to say thanks again for all the work you do, your videos have really helped me understand the game and teach it to my wife.

  • @marshallchaney8845
    @marshallchaney8845 Год назад +5

    A quick note about replacing "duds": mathematically speaking, swapping a generically weak card for a more powerful one will not reduce the number of "duds" in your cube. Instead, some other card will now be the weakest and never make anyone's deck. Instead, I try to replace my general under-performers with narrow cards that won't work in most decks, but the 10% of the time they do fit in a deck they'll be one of the best cards in it. Mox Opal is a good example--if you can't hit Metalcraft then it does nothing, but if you can then it's incredibly powerful.
    Thank you for the good video and bringing attention to my favorite format. I hope very much that this comment pleases the algorithm.

  • @PureSolace

    The more and more Commander becomes dominant, and the OG formats fall to the side... Building and Designing your own cube will become more and more important. It seems that if WotC continues its current trajectory (business wise), cube formats that communities rally around will probably become more important. (But if and when that happens, as they gain popularity, WotC will probably pivot and head to where 'the money is at'.) Such is life. Thanks for the video Professor!

    My partner and I have been slowly creating a Jumpstart cube! We love the original and 2022 editions. They let any number of players of any skill level quickly get to the fun part (actually playing!) and this type of cube is incredibly easy to maintain and update. One day we'll branch out into a proper themed or plane cube, but this has been a fun way of dipping our toes into the format!

  • @michaelgriffith7033
    @michaelgriffith7033 Год назад +1

    I haven't played cube format for ages. My group back then really enjoyed it, since a few of us were deeply invested in our constructed decks while other players were much less invested time and money-wise.

    Just finished my first commander cube! 500 total cards, 80 of which are multicolored legends. 420 nonlands, non legends. It’s designed for a pod of 4. Everyone gets 3 packs of 28, then draft from that.
    Then, there is an additional 100 card cube of non-basic lands. Each player gets two packs of 11, then draft through that.
    Successfully played it once and it was a blast!

    Totally unrelated comment but still relevant. I bought one of your boxes as a gift this Christmas for my gf. It just came in today almost exactly a week after ordering, on time. The quality of materials not only LOOK but feel very nice. Has plenty of space and I loved the included divider. Pricing was a little steep as this is an honest review. However. I feel she’ll get a few years of worth out of it without quick deterioration. Got the academic XL in purple and black. The colors don’t clash and are easy on the eyes. All in all very satisfied I was able to grab one while they were available.

    • @KingBobXVI
      @KingBobXVI Год назад +2

      ​@@rileymcphee9429- proxies are great (in fact I just ordered a bunch a few days ago), but sometimes the limitation is not financial, and in this case imo you're missing the point. The challenge of building a cube using only cards that have been printed in a certain style before is a self-imposed limitation that exists to breed creativity, and functions as a game unto itself when it comes to the design of the cube.
      Heck, he may already be proxying it, if he wants power in the cube.

    • @rileymcphee9429
      @rileymcphee9429 Год назад

      @KingBobXVI he can't proxy in the old frame? Honestly, it's pretty easy these days to get glossy cards made at FedEx print copy. My point is, there's no need to buy regulation cards for a non-competitive format. I'd rather buy a $2-4 sheet and cut everything out myself than hundreds of dollars on the originals and take those out of circulation, thus raising the price on the diminished supply.
      You see my point?

    We are back to talking about cube! I'm so glad you've come back, professor, I've built one with the help of your previous videos years ago, a pioneer cube. I'm grateful to see another video. We mostly winston draft it because we mostly get 3 players, but we have done 5 packs of 9 when we had a crew of 4. My limit per card was $3, and well, I gotta take out a few cards as the years go by, Skysovereign is much more expensive now. Plus I used the first 40 sets, 10 years of pioneer, I am looking to update with the plethra of new sets since new capnena, and I keep it up on cube cobra and in a bcw box. Whoo!

    • @LithmusEarth
      @LithmusEarth Год назад

      A long time ago I made a khans of tarkir cube, and then I made a dominaria cube, (set cubes) and then i finally using cubetutor (now on cubecobra) put together a pioneer cube. I have not updated it since the summer of capenna, I'm pretty sure. It is slightly smaller than a 360. I think it's 270. I just never sort of finished that last burst. I had started with a smaller 4-color party creature types matters that was a 90-180 sized cube. Was a tight draft environment for 2 players.

    My Jumpstart cube is the only way I play MTG anymore. I really enjoyed the careful construction of combining the 2-4 theme variations into one bis pack. This also helped me sell my Throne of Eldraine cube by making a single pack for each color.
    The general format for each pack is 2 R/M, 4 U, 6 C, 8 L. You then fix that into 8 creatures, 2 removal, 2 wild, 1 thriving land, 6-7 basic lands.

Twoberts quickly became my favorite way to cube and they help solve the problem many cubers encounter of often not being able to get 8 people together to draft. Happy to have more people aware of the idea!
    Another fun idea I've been exploring lately are cubes based around Pai Gow Magic, could be another cool video idea if you haven't covered that already.

      And now I'm imagining a potential solution where players draft two at a time, but commit one of the two to a central discard of sorts, like a hate-draft pile, so you can draft cards to bait your opponent into thinking you're going for a different strategy or something like that.

      @@KingBobXVI the deck is 120 cards, and to draft we both deal 6, pick 2, swap, pick another 2, discard fhe rest, then repeat until the whole deck is drafted. Very fast and works well for us!

      @@KingBobXVI There are quite a few ways to do a 2 person draft, but really that just shows that any system will work. Grid draft (supported on Cube Cobra) and the Minneapolis draft both involve removing cards from the draft. I see it as less hate drafting and more as simulating other drafters taking cards. My partner and I do Winchester draft a lot because it is fast, but there’s no hidden information in that one.

    Building my cube was one of the most rewarding things I've ever done. Planning out archetypes, thinking about how they would interact in the card pool, and finding the perfect cards that would be fought over by drafters just made me connect so much more with the final product. It's a brewers dream because you're basically building a tesseract of decks all at once that's constantly shifting. I had to keep so many competing considerations in my head, and navigating the ramifications of each card inclusion was challenging in all the best ways. What came out was such a personal work and I am always super excited to share it with my friends and see them enjoy it. I now look at new set releases with an eye on possible additions to it like how my commander friends look for inclusions in their decks.
