Description

Commander Cube V1.0

After doing some research, and learning that a mainly unplayed format has 20 "Experts" that have 20 different "Expert Opinions", I decided to have a go at my first Commander Cube. I settled on Sacrifice, Reanimation and +1/+1 Counters as my main focus when choosing draft cards and the commanders to stick at the helm. Because of this many of the Commander selection and the amount of overall cards are very Sultai heavy, but there are enough red, white and colorless cards to support the 4 & 5 color decks as well.

I tried to have a mix of power and synergy to keep everything fun. I also wanted to make the cube large enough that not every card will be drafted every game. Roughly half of the non-land/non-commander cards will be used every draft. Draft decks tend to be very creature heavy since you are not going to have perfect synergies or infinite combos built into each deck. I aimed for 1/3 of the non-land cards to be creature cards and I believe it will be a good balance of spells/artifact and creatures.

The Draft Plan

The plan is as follows, each player will have:

  • 1 - 8 Card Commander Pack
  • 2 - 15 Card Land Packs
  • 6 - 15 Card Draft Packs

This will leave each player with 128 cards (not including basic lands) to build their deck from.

  • 30 non-basic lands
  • 8 guaranteed legendary creatures to use as the Commander or in the 99
  • 90 drafted cards
