This cube started as a Standard Peasant Cube. It was only ever a concept.

What I learned was that all the commons and uncommons in Standard comprise something like 850 cards (at the time). That's too much. That's also when Standard was small.

Since this cube was meant to be

1. basically free,
2. super duper easy to "curate",
3. change lots and lots over time,

I decided to make it a contemporary Uncommons Cube. It certainly still hits all those points.

The rules for the cube are:

• The 4 most recent sets, every uncommon, even the orphans and duplicates. This does create some traps but... oh well.
  -Additionally, it includes the common lands from the sets, because otherwise the fixing is miserable. Lands seeded in the pack like a standard booster, the rest mixed in with everything else. In moments where there are LESS than 24 fixing lands you could duplicate your favorite pair so that every pack of an 8 person draft has a land. Or not. Up to you. Hasn't come up in a while.
  -With newer sets having 100 Uncommons and (so far) about 1 set a year having a bonus sheet the cube usually floats around 450 or so. You could add a set and try to get closer to 540, or cut and keep it just above 360. It used to be a stretch sometimes to get to 360. More land duplication.
  -Rotation on set release for nimble play. Rotation waits until I've got all the cards in hand, when I've ever actually got cards in hand. This has all been theoretical for a while now.

I've also started keeping historical seasons based on an arbitrary (although in my opinion and based on my personal history with the game, a perfectly good) "starting" set for the seasons. Honestly, the more I think about it the more I'd recommend it too. Not enough value in the whole thing for anyone to take, and why break up a good set for the 1 played uncommon's worth of store credit? Just keep piling up those free cubes I say!

Footnotes on Current Construction: Despite being released this year, standard legal, and a front page draft set, I've skipped Foundations. It's reprints (mostly), and its also HUGE. 200+ cards all told. We'll see if we run into other size issues as they add more set releases per year.
