This is a micro-cube based on a modified ruleset of Magic called Pai Gow.

This list is a modified version of the Segovian Pai Gow. I have changed about 30ish cards (25% of the cube) to reflect the play experience that I and my friends prefer, but I encourage you to check out the original list and the article the designer wrote about the cube. The rules for Pai Gow are below and they are copied from the original cube's description with some minor modifications from me.

Pai Gow: This alternate ruleset obeys the following rules:

  1. 3 card decks
  2. 5 life
  3. Infinite mana
  4. For this cube specifically, there are offspring tokens sleeved in the cube. These are treated as normal cards (they are cast, can be bounced to hand, stay in the graveyard, etc).

There are two main ways to play:

  1. Sealed: Open a 15 card pack and build 5 decks of 3 cards.
  2. Draft: A pod of 4 players open a 5 card pack. Pick 1 pass the rest. Do this 3 times total to end up with a 15 card pool. Build 5 decks of 3 cards.

Gameplay is as follows

  1. Who plays first is determined by a die roll.
  2. Each player chooses what deck their opponent will play dec
  3. In the event of a stalemate the player with less life loses. Otherwise it is a draw.
  4. First to win 3 games out of 5 wins the round!
