Description

note: this cube was first called "funky tarkir" and "my first cube"

editor's note 2: the cube list can now be found here https://cubecobra.com/cube/overview/34sm3

I first started playing magic when my best friend had a birthday party. His cousin wanted to show us a card game that he really liked. He bought a duel deck (Speed vs. Cunning) for my friend's birthday, so he explained the basics of the game and we tried to play it. It took a while for me to really understand the basics, but after a few games, I roughly knew what I was doing so I bought my first Magic: The Gathering set (M15 Clash Pack: Fate vs. Fury) about a few weeks after that.

The bottom line is, I started playing around Fate Reforged / Dragons of Tarkir. That's why I decided (after five years of playing magic) to build a Tarkir cube. While building the cube, I was thinking how I could enhance the draft gameplay and then I remembered the two conspiracy drafts I once participated to. So I wanted to experiment with conspiracy cards, un-cards and even some custom cards.

  • 28 "commandzone" cards (vanguards and conspiracies)
  • 56 lands & mana fixing rocks

Khan clans (10 cards each):

  • The Abzan Houses (Outlast)
  • The Jeskai Way (Prowess)
  • The Sultai Brood (Delve)
  • The Mardu Horde (Raid)
  • The Temur Frontier (Ferocious)

Dragon clans (4 cards each):

  • The Dromoka Brood (Bolster)
  • The Ojutai Brood (Rebound)
  • The Silumgar Brood (Exploit)
  • The Kolaghan Brood (Dash)
  • The Atarka Brood (Formiddable)

The rest (4 cards outliers):

  • orzhov warriors (+bolster)
  • izzet prowess
  • golgari toughness (+delve)
  • boros aggro
  • simic face down

mono colours (44 each):

  • mono white (weenies?)
  • mono blue (tempo?)
  • mono black (control)
  • mono red (dragon tribal)
  • mono green (stompy-y?)
  • 26 colourless cards

This creates a total of 420 cards, which can be drafted with 8 or even 9 players. I created this cube for 8 players, but added some buffer for cards like Booster Tutor, Summon the Pack, Lore Seeker. So you'll have 24 packs + 4 extra (15 cards each). OR you can have 18 packs + 2 extra (of 21 cards per pack). Which can support a 6 player draft.
