This is a 2-4 player multiplayer cube intended for free for all games where each player has 20 life.
Here I am going to provide you with a table with some good pack sizes and counts for any number of players between 3 and 8.
One of the tricks to a good draft experience is to have enough cards to loop around the table almost twice, this allows players to make strategic decisions about what cards to take now, and which ones to risk coming back around next time. This decision becomes less meaningful with every repeated loop around the table, so we can't just make massive packs.
With this in mind, we get the following.
Players | Packs per player | Cards per pack | Total picks | Total packs | Total cards |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
3 | 8 | 6 | 48 | 24 | 144 |
4 | 6 | 8 | 48 | 24 | 192 |
5 | 6 | 8 | 48 | 30 | 240 |
6 | 4 | 12 | 48 | 24 | 288 |
7 | 4 | 12 | 48 | 28 | 336 |
8 | 3 | 15 | 45 | 24 | 360 |
I've emphasised the first two rows only because that's what is most relevant for this cube.
I have created a custom draft for 3 and 4 players according to the table above. The default draft is set to 3 players, as that's what we play at home.
