Dear Friends, Enemies, Colleagues, Competitors, Compatriots, Countrymen, and Others,

2022 was a tumultuous year. The world population reached 8 billion people. Russia invaded Ukraine. Elon Musk bought Twitter. Canada and Denmark finally, thankfully, resolved their 50-year border dispute over the uninhabited, barren Hans Island, ending the Whisky War.

In October of that year, we gathered. From around the world, we flocked to the budding metropolis of Madison, Wisconsin to engage in the largest aerial battle in the history of mankind. "Mankind" - that word should have new meaning for all of us today. We can’t be consumed by our petty differences anymore. We will be united in our common interest. Perhaps it’s fate that today is the 4th of July, and you will once again be fighting for our freedom. Not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution; but from annihilation. We’re fighting for our right to live. To exist. And should we win the day, the 4th of July will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day when the world declared in one voice - "We will not go quietly into the night! We will not vanish without a fight! We’re going to live on! We’re going to survive!" Today, we celebrate our independence day!

Wait, where was I?

Oh, right. CubeCon 2022.

At CubeCon 2022, one of the more popular offerings was the BUG Cube, designed by Combatiblewombat. This was followed in 2023 by the Jund Cube, designed by tylerpug.

Following the 2023 Convention, your heroes, @jrc3789 and WarrenFish / @xoanon, having consumed many, many beers, examined this trend, and decided the cycle must be completed. As such, we took it upon ourselves to assemble the as-yet-unassembled third BGX Cube for CubeCon 2024 submission.

What followed is the Cube you have before you - the Junk Cube. We took great efforts to include as many archetypes that Black, Green, and White are often known for as possible. Including:

-Tokens
-Sacrifice/Aristocrats
-Scales/Counters
-Graveyard Synergies
-Value Creatures/Blink
-Auras & Equipment
-Traditional Midrange

We also gave each individual color a tribal subtheme - Zombies in Black, Elves in Green, Humans in White. We consulted with Cube experts like 2022 CubeCon Champion Caleb Durward and CubeCon Founding Partner JBro. (And by consulted, we mean we asked them for one individual card each that must be included or else a pox befall both our houses.)

As with all Cubes, The Junk Cube is never finished. We are always testing, tinkering, pulling various levers and applying various salves and balms. But the current list is quite close to the one we hope to have at CubeCon 2024, and the power level and play styles within exemplify the environment we choose to highlight.

Please feel free to peruse at your leisure, and reach out with questions, comments, concerns, feedback, recommendations, and etc.

Merry Christmas To All, and To All A Good Night.
