>>> ### 🦉Strixhaven Twobert💫 <<< #### Overview This cube is designed to be [**grid**](https://luckypaper.co/resources/formats/grid-draft/), [**pancake**](https://riptidelab.com/forum/threads/pancake-draft.1809/), or [**Housman**](https://luckypaper.co/resources/formats/housman-draft/) drafted with **2** players. 4 player multi player option possible too! (See bottom for draft details) * 225 cards - Players see 72% (grid), 88% (pancake), and 76% (houseman) allowing for variation between drafts. * Only includes cards from Strixhaven with Mystical Archives * Reduced bombs (no Deans, Elder Dragons, and less rares/mythics) #### Mechanics * **LESSONS LEARNED** If a spell or ability instructs you to learn, you have two choices... 1) You can discard a card and then draw a card. 2) You reveal a Lesson card from outside the game and put it into your hand. * **MAGECRAFT** is an ability word that highlights triggered abilities that give you some sort of benefit whenever you cast—or copy—an instant or sorcery spell. * **WARD** is a triggered ability. Whenever a permanent with ward becomes the target of a spell or ability an opponent controls, counter that spell or ability unless that opponent pays whatever cost is after the word "ward." That cost can be mana, life, or pretty much anything else that can be a cost. #### SILVERQUILL {W}{B} +1/+1 Counters & Tokens Wielding the magic of words, Silverquill students are stylish, intimidating, and tirelessly competitive.

Witherbloom students draw power from the essence of living beings, whether that means enhancing nature or exploiting it. Witherbloom mages are most at home riding zombie crocs, picking herbs for potions, and hanging out in their swamp making grim jokes. >>> <<[[!Dina, Soul Steeper]][[!Infuse with Vitality]][[!Witherbloom Apprentice]][[!Pest Summoning]]>> <<< #### QUANDRIX {G}{U} Additional Lands & +1/+1 Counters Quandrix mages are ingenious math magicians.

They explore the past by poring over artifacts and summoning long-dead spirits. For some, the past is a rich tapestry for disciplined study. For Lorehold it's a cape worn as they jump into a forgotten tomb. >>> <<[[!Quintorius, Field Historian]][[!Thrilling Discovery]][[!Lorehold Apprentice]][[!Spirit Summoning]]>> <<< #### 4 Player Housman Draft * Deal a 5-card hand to each player, and 5 cards face-up in between them. * Players take turns exchanging one card from their hand with a face-up card, until each player has made three exchanges. Players must make all their exchanges — no skipping — but they may pick cards that were previously laid out by either player. After three turns of exchanges, each player adds their final 5-card hand to their draft pool, discarding the 5 face-up cards. * Repeat this process 9 times, so that each player ends with a 45-card draft pool. Shift which player makes the first exchange each round, each player should first exchange twice. * Players make a 60 card deck * OPTIONAL RULE: Draft a commander and follow color identity restrictions!
