Rules
- Cubelet: Shared library, 7-card starting hand, no mulligans, players may play any card from their hand face down as a land with all basic land types.
- House Rule: Creatures with Morph played as lands may be turned face up for their Morph cost.
- Unique: The Cubelet format offers two unique mechanics that I tried to emphasize: the shared library, and the face-down lands. For the former, you'll see lots of scrying and other ways of interacting with the top of the library (Approach of the Second Sun, Spin Into Myth). For the latter, Morph creatures and effects that let you return lands to your hand such as Kor Skyfisher give you ways to make use of something you played as a land earlier in the game.
- Flexible: A Cubelet can only be so large before getting unwieldy, so cards that present multiple options are desirable. There are a lot of modal spells, Adventures, and spells with Kicker, Bestow, and Reconfigure to support this.
- Quick: This cubelet contains no cards that involve searching or shuffling a player's library. Overly-defensive cards are kept to a minimum in order to keep games moving.
- Friendly: As much as I love my textless Lightning Bolt and Lightning Helix, this cubelet is meant to be played with newer or returning players who might not have an encyclopedic knowledge of format staples or named mechanics. Similarly, overly-wordy cards like Animate Dead or Necromancy were passed on, even though their play pattern is reasonably intuitive.
