Description

Commander Cube

This cube is intended as a mid power exhibition of nearly every set and mechanic available in MTG. This does include the UB sets as well as some Un- cards.

Ideally all 2+ color Legends (including vehicles and spaceships) are usable as commander without any being a "trap" pick. Any particular draft is not intended to include all cards in the cube and as such will not have equal support or color availability in each use. All cards should be roughly "usable" even outside of a dedicated strategy, so picks ought to not feel wasted without specific commanders or synergies.

As a house rule for the draft it is allowed to use multiple copies of any card that can be found in multiples throughout the draft. This is mostly relevant to Rite of Flame, but can apply to any card you may be lucky enough to draft in multiples.

Planechase cards are available. These do not come up every game, and so it is a rule for the cube that the first planechase effect to occur rolls to a random Plane out all available (we generally use a random number generator and find the appropriate plane from all planes in scryfall), and until that happens we do not use planechase rules for the game. All of these cards are functional if you choose to avoid the planechase aspect of them.

Faceless One, Clara Oswald, and The Prismatic Piper are intended to be available alongside basics post draft to aid in color identities for the appropriate commanders.

Supported Archetypes:

  • Cascade
  • Coin Flip
  • Dice Roll
  • Counters
  • Artifacts
  • Equipment
  • Mill
  • Dungeons
  • Theft
  • Life Gain
  • Discard
  • Topdeck Manipulation
  • Grouphug

Tribal Support:

  • Dogs
  • Crabs
  • Cats
  • Warriors
  • Skeletons

Other synergies and strategies are available outside of these, but are typically more narrow in support and relevant card pool.

I generally recommend at least 6 packs of 15 per player for best experience to form decks of 100 as standard. Though in testing I tend to find 7-8 packs feels better in game, that amount of packs can start to feel slow in draft. Spice to preference. GLHF
