Bite-sized Magic! Quick to draft and play, first-pick revitalize and beware the one-mana 1/1s!

Two players grid-draft the entire 54-card cube, then each build a 15 card deck. Each player starts at 1 life, but otherwise the game proceeds by normal Magic rules. Games usually last ~10-15 minutes including drafting, and the entire experience + land station fits in a deckbox!

You can see all my thought here!

You Hear Something is basically a strict upgrade over Glare, as 5 damage kills just about everything in the cube, and the pump mode will give some flexibility to push through a go-wide win.

Beacon was fun as a build around, but ultimately felt like a trap. It was too easy to counter in so many ways available in the cube. Going to focus on red's theme of tokens and goblins instead.
