Welcome in...

...A carefully curated environnement for 2-4 players.
Feel yourself at home and have fun !

Tl;DR

  • Type: Singleton non-set cube.
  • Focus : Elegance of card design / Promoting fair play.
  • Speed: Midrange-y, with bi-color aggro decks sustained.
  • Identity: Highly interactive
  • Power Differential: Low to Medium
  • Ideal Amount of Colors: 2(-3)
  • Fixing: Fast
  • Variance: None with a pool of 4

Intentions / Objectives
Constructed around emergent modules instead of bicolor archetypes, the format aim to be interactive, producing fast gameplay patterns, offering an high density of interesting choices and fun play sequences. We want to allow creative players to experiment in deckbuilding despite the reduced size of the pool. A special emphasis has been put on the draft experience itself.

Draft recommendations
Designed for 2-players Grid draft, 2-players Winchester draft or 3 to 4-players standard draft.
For 4 players, you may use 5 packs of 9 cards per person (instead of 3 packs of 15 cards): this will reduce the wheeling and "emulate" the 8-players draft experience better.
For 3, you should use 6 packs of 9 per person, and discard the 2 last cards in each pack.
