Welcome to the plane of Theros, please enjoy your stay!

This Commander cube includes cards from Theros, Journey into Nyx, Born of the Gods, Theros Beyond Death, and some unique Theros-themed cards from other sets. Additionally, it contains cards with ambiguous names, art, and flavor text to complement primary set cards, while simultaneously drawing on the themes of Ancient Greece. All cards were meticulously chosen to stay on theme within these guidelines.

While the cube sticks to pretty strict thematic guidelines, there's still some room for flexibility and creative interpretation. For certain slots that are harder to fill, I've used cards that fit the theme, even if they require a bit of a looser take on the core principles.

Important drafting notes:

• There are 24 packs, each containing 20 cards.
• All Mono-color Commanders have the “Partner” ability.
• Planeswalkers can serve as your commander.
• The starting life total is 40, and commander damage is 21.
• Sideboards are your leftover draft cards and Commanders cannot be swapped.
• For each type of token generated, there are physical tokens available.
• A copy of Echo of the gods, Star Compass, and Commander's Sphere are available for all players to use. (See the custom cards section at the bottom of the overview for more details on Echo of the gods)

Drafting rules:

• Players draft 3 packs.
• Choose 2 cards per card selection.
• First pack, pass cards to the left; Second pack, pass to the right; Third pack, pass to the left again.
• After the draft, players have 1 hour to create a 60 card Commander deck. The 60 cards includes 1-2 commanders from your drafted cards. Your deck must match your commanders' color identity.

Deck building:

• Land Count (24-26): If you want to play it safe, then go for 26 lands.
• Creature Count (19-23): Creatures are the primary way to deal damage
• Spell Count (12-16): Removal spells are important since larger creatures are far more likely to be cast.

Mana curve:

• 1 mana: 2-4
• 2 mana: 6-8
• 3 mana: 8-10
• 4 mana: 6-8
• 5 mana: 4-6
• 6 mana: 2-4
• 7+ mana: 0-2

Card specific rules:

• The Spear of Leonidas will automatically be given to the player that drafts Kassandra, Eagle Bearer. Does not count towards overall card count and will not be put in the shuffle pool.

Custom Cards:

• Echo of the gods is my homebrew variant of The Prismatic Piper, it fits the cube flavor, provides support for mechanics in the cube, and is at a power level that people wouldn't be upset if they had to use.
