The goal of this cube is to take all of the things I love about the original Zendikar - Maps, Traps, and Chaps (Quests, Traps, and Allies; plus Landfall of course) and cut out all the things I don't, especially the Eldrazi. Special rules:

One Gold card, one colorless Artifact, and a common of each color in each pack.

Every creature with a Warrior, Cleric, Wizard, or Rogue creature type is also an Ally.

Zendikar Mechanics used:

Landfall, Cohort, Traps, Kicker, Quests, Awaken, Party, MDFCs, Rally, and Surge.

Zendikar Mechanics not used:

Defender-matters, Annihilator, Level Up, Converge, Rebound, Devoid, Ingest, Totem Armor, and Support.
