# Welcome... ...to this gorgeous cube, that will provide you a huge flashback to the *good old times*. I began building this cube for Paper Magic in 2022 and have already had the opportunity to play it 16 times with groups of five to seven friends. Everyone has been able to draft a functional and unique deck, and the overall feedback has been very positive. All cards in the cube are legal in the community-created format [Premodern](https://www.premodernmagic.com/). That said, I’m constantly refining and improving the cube. For instance, I had to scale back the power level of blue, as it had been dominating too many drafts (see FAQ). I’m always open to suggestions, so if you have ideas for improvement, feel free to share them! $\text{ }$ ## Table of contents {1} **Archetypes** {2} **Combos** {3} **FAQ** $\text{ }$ >>>##

archetype + such a deck needs several copies of specific cards to work properly. Aside from that, [[Yawgmoth's Will|6d3e3c3a-d351-4d91-8884-312d4b6f540d]] is banned in Premodern. -) *How do you draft this cube with 6 participants?* 4 Boosters for each player had been working very well so far. -) *Does your cube contain any proxies?* I have only proxed a very little amount (3 cards). My goal is to replace them with the original ones. -) *Are there any creature type updates I need to be aware of?* Basically all *Lords* have the creature type they are buffing, but they aren't buffing themselves. -) *What archetypes won the previous drafts so far*?
