*“As I died, I rejoiced. I would see my family again. But then I woke up back on the battlefield. Back in Kamigawa. Back in hell.” —Kenzo the Hardhearted* # Introduction --- This cube is designed to be a more powerful and balanced experience based on the themes of Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty. This isn't a set cube, instead added cards are predominantly from the original set, but including cards that support the themes of the cube. We usually play this cube in a small pod of 2-4 players. Grid draft for 2 players and 5 packs of 9 for 4 players. However, this cube would work for a regular 8 player draft. # Design Goals --- **Balance** - No dominant strategies or bombs that runaway with the game (I'm looking at you [[ Fable of the Mirror-Breaker]]). Meanwhile the power level of the cube is a little higher than a standard retail draft set. **Kamigawa Flavour** - The cube will try to keep the original flavour of the Kamigawa plane, however synergistic cards from other sets show up. **Archetypes** - Most Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty draft archetypes are maintained while tweaks have to be made due to the shift to singleton. **Interactive** - No goldfishing your opponents, decision based resource use, complex sequencing. **Singleton** - No duplicates of any card, except for the life-gain dual lands. # Archetypes --- {W}{U} - Vehicles <<[[!Kitsune Ace ]][[!Kotori, Pilot Prodigy ]][[!Mindlink Mech]]>> {U}{B} - Ninjas <<[[!Ninja of the Deep Hours]][[!Yuriko, the Tiger's Shadow]][[!Nashi, Moon Sage's Scion]]>> {B}{R} - Artifact Sacrifice <<[[!Marionette Master ]][[!Oni-Cult Anvil]][[!Atog]]>> {R}{G} - Modified <<[[!Akki Ember-Keeper ]][[!Chishiro, the Shattered Blade]][[!Verdurous Gearhulk]]>> {W}{G} - Enchantments <<[[!Spirited Companion]][[!Jukai Naturalist]][[!Weaver of Harmony]]>> {W}{B} - Unnatural <<[[!Michiko's Reign of Truth]][[!Naomi, Pillar of Order]][[!Nezumi Bladeblesser]]>> {U}{R} - Artifacts <<[[!Sai, Master Thopterist]][[!Enthusiastic Mechanaut]][[!Experimental Synthesizer]]>> {G}{B} - Graveyard <<[[!Season of Renewal]][[!Gloomshrieker]][[!Emergency Weld]]>> {W}{R} - Samurai <<[[!Imperial Subduer]][[!Asari Captain]][[!Godo, Bandit Warlord]]>> {U}{G} - Channel/Ramp <<[[!Mirrorshell Crab]][[!Colossal Skyturtle]][[!Greater Tanuki]]>> {W}{U}{B}{R}{G} - Shrines <<[[!Go-Shintai of Life's Origin]][[!Sanctum of All]][[!Shrine Steward]]>>
