This is a fully powered Vintage Cube with about 15-20 silver border, playtest, Conspiracy, and/or Gavin Verhey Unknown Event cards included at any given time. Started near the beginning of Covid and updated with each set or two (depending on how many sets release that week), this cube is my Magic pride and joy, is an environment I love drafting and has been praised by everyone I've been fortunate enough to draft with.
Black Lotus? Check. Moxen? Check. Storm cards? Check. Oko and everything else they fell asleep at the wheel for? Check. Time Vault? Nope, that's a little too much even with the craziness here. Draft pick matters Librarian? Yup. Jack-in-the-Mox? Also yup. Booster Tutor and Clocknapper? Of course. Emrakul? Obviously.
I've seen a veteran of my cube turn one Show and Tell Emrakul into a first time drafter's Archon of Cruelty, I've seen Thousand-Year Storm copy three Booster Tutors into 4 Psionic Blasts, I've revealed Worldspine Wurm with Dark Confidant, cursed as lifelong friends like FTK, Glen Elendra Archmage and Riftwing Cloudskate have been passed over for better cards, and naturally Tinkered for Blightsteel on turn 1-2 of 3 consecutive games and lost the match.
Most recent change was accepting that the single black mana 2/1 creatures are the last pick in every pack of every draft and removing that archetype for more powerful midrange black cards and cards that empower a variety of archetypes.
Gavin's Playtest cards Force of Rowan and Delve Too Deep have replaced Bloodchief's Thirst and Blast From the Past, but I don't know how to update custom cards yet...
