Introduction

Over the years, I've become an enthusiast for mono-red in EDH. The impulsive, high-variance, and unique nature of red's staples and strategies provide a fresh experience every game. While I've been a fan of the mono-red lifestyle for a while, I wanted to share the excitement with friends in my playgroup; I figured the best way to do this would be to have an all-in-one mono-red experience. So I began creating this cube...

Archetype Overviews, or "what commander do I pick?"

Currently, this cube supports the following archetypes with some suggested commanders for each:
Aggro/Goblins - Krenko, Mob Boss/Grenzo, Havoc Raiser/Subira, Tulzidi Caravanner/Anax, Hardened in the Forge/Patron of the Akki
Large Creatures/Sneak Attack - Feldon of the Third Path/Purphoros, Bronze-Blooded/Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker/Ilharg, the Raze-Boar
Group Slug/Big Damage - Toralf, God of Furu/Heartless Hidetsugu/Obosh, the Preypiercer/Zo-Zu the Punisher/Torbran, Thane of Red Fell/Dargo the Shipwrecker
Dragons - Lathliss, Dragon Queen/Feldon of the Third Path/Purphoros, Bronze-Blooded
Spellslinger - Wort, the Raidmother/Syr Carah, the Bold/Neheb, Dreadhorde Champion/Birgi, God of Storytelling
Voltron - Godo, Bandit Warlord/Valduk, Keeper of the Flame/Neheb, Dreadhorde Champion/Zirda, the Dawnwaker
Artifacts - Daretti, Scrap Savant/Feldon of the Third Path
Red Goodstuff - Kazuul, Tyrant of the Cliffs/Moraug, Fury of Akoum
Meme - Norin the Wary/Rograkh, Son of Rohgahh
Please note that these are not hard and fast rules. One benefit of a monocolored cube is that archetypes are highly flexible.

Rules Drafting

We begin by separating cards into commander and non-commander groups (commanders being legendary creatures and planeswalkers that are "legal as commanders"). Then we create packs by selecting 18 cards from the non-commander group and 2 from the commander group. We take 2 cards per pack and follow normal passing rules for MTG limited. Deck size is 60 cards minimum.

Gameplay

Games are played in a multiplayer free-for-all fashion. Partners are allowed as per the usual rules of Commander gameplay. The Prismatic Piper is available as necessary for partner players. Sideboarding is encouraged in between games with unused picks. Life totals start at 30 and above 15 commander damage is lethal.
