This cube is built from (almost) exclusively Gold Bordered cards. I love me some gold bordered cards and I don’t get to play them enough so here we be.
THIS CUBE IS MEANT TO BE DRAFTED IN A POD OF 8 WITH 3 PACKS OF 16 PER PLAYER.
The cube is built around a few themes, all focused on 2 color pairs with some crossover via 3+ color cards.
UW: Artifact Control
UB: Surveil and Hand Hate
BR: Small Aggro (+Menace)
RG: Creature only Aggro
GW: Enchantments Matter (Auras)
WB: <3 Reanimator
UR: Instant and Sorcery Spells
BG: Planeswalkers, Graveyards, and Insects, Oh My!
RW: Burning Metal (Artifacts and Burn)
UG: Top Deck Matters (+Ramp)
Fixing is relatively low, which should incentivize players to heavily lean into 2 colors, possibly splashing a third. Players who get too greedy are heavily at risk of stumbling if they don’t mulligan carefully and/or plan their mana base carefully during the draft.
