Cloned from Alpha Old Fogey Cube
Cloned from Beta Old Fogey Cube
Applied a lot of ideas from the Mox Cube V2 including removal size, and "mana curve" https://cubecobra.com/cube/list/xi7
Old Fogey's idea for a good constructed game of Magic is not great, but perhaps his ideas can be applied to Cube...
This is a Twinned Cube, much like Japahn's where every card drafted gives you an identical card to put in your deck.
There are only three drops, and other cards with mana values divisible by three.
And 50 black lotuses to help you cast them.
I originally built this cube to feel like DBS' but Black Lotus was easily the best card in the cube and it really destroyed the whole Cube. Then I built it to feel durdly and to have aristocrats, and I quite enjoyed the experience, but the gameplay kinda sucked.
This version I am much more happy with, but I think I will still continue to tweak it even after the contest.
It might be best to explain this cube by the cards I originally had to cut for being "too strong".
Mirrodin Besieged, Primeval Bounty, Marionette Master, and, of course, Pia's Revolution.
Now, they are back in and as expected, none of them broke the game. (Except for Salvaging Station, they're gone now.)
The only major restriction are cards that literally break the Cube like Mine, Mine, Mine! or Trinisphere. I also cut wheels like Echo of Eons and Wheel of Fortune because while usually fine, the chance of getting these out on turn one is extremely annoying. Possibly not even that strong, just annoying. There's still "good" card draw, but it's usually slower, like Staff of Nin or harder to bring about, like Carnage Interpreter.
This idea could be refined further, it might be more effective to just have 100 Black Lotuses in the Basic Land Box, but I quite enjoy the drafting aspect of it since some decks need more Black Lotuses than others and I find it fun to build that while drafting.
Please proxy this Cube.
These cards would dramatically change the nature of the Cube, but they still might be good inclusions.
