Inspired by the MTGO extended Khans cube, I wanted to build my first cube based on my love for gold cards.

Each Shard has a focused archetype and a minor sub theme.

Abzan: +1/+1 counters with a minor legendary sub theme.

Temur: Ramp with copy/steal spells. Plays big mana spells.

Sultai: The value shard with a graveyard sub theme.

Jeskai: Tempo/Prowess and flying creatures.

Mardu: Cheap and efficient creatures. The Aristocrats.

Jund: Card advantage full of 2 for 1s, sacrifice sub theme.

Bant: Lands matter. Landfall/Awoken spells.

Esper: Blink theme with CITP creatures with a minor enchantment/artifact sub theme.

Naya: Tokens or beefy creatures.

Grixis: Control with a steal creatures/spells sub theme.

5 color: Play everything! Opportunity to play very powerful 5 color spells.
