How To Play Your Favorite MTG Set FOREVER 

Another great way to play with your favorite set and play quick games without all the setup is a battlebox

Best cube I've ever made was the mtg holiday cube, now known as the vintage cube. We printed out every card at our public library, used a paper cutter, then sleeved up all the cards with some sleeves. Amazing time.

I like that one of your out-of-set inclusions was Herbology Instructor. I personally wouldn't have included cards from other planes as replacements in a set cube. Loved this video. Really glad to see content on paper Cube!

Great Video!! This is my collecting philosophy as well. Have a collection you can play. I don’t particularly care about the expensive cards, so I have gathered a lot through bulk lots and budget buys, and filled out all the commons and uncommons no problem for several sets. Each set I gathered is now peasant draft ready. I also have a good chunk of bulk rares if I ever wanted to make the packs spicier. :)

the amount of rizz that tree has for me and my car is insane

Re: Cube Size - I'm a fan of the 4/2/1 distribution, but I also think you should trim the fat so it's an 8 man cube with no extras, and then sort by rarity so that when you make packs, each pack contains 11 (C)s, 3 (U)s, and 1 (R) (or you could do 16 card packs and 2 rares, or whatever, you get the idea...). Guaranteeing a pack contents is a great way to send signals. (Note that I don't mind duplicate (C)s or (U)s in the cube; the cost of making sure only 1 of each card per pack is high, and the benefits low.)

7:14 - I see what you're going or here - adding things that leave the graveyard, but mixing colors and adding new mechanics can be confusing. Might I suggest Abiding Grace (animates 1 drops each turn), Helping Hand (a white Unearth), Not Forgotten, etc. If you want to add Flashback to the WR archetype... that seems like a big departure. Flashback's a GREAT mechanic, but there are more elegant solutions.

I love this idea . I am currently trying to complete all the sets of magic from the modern era . But instead making a dedicated cube for each draft able set would be amazing !!!

Thank you so much for this amazing video. It gives me a clear starting point to build up a KTK block cube. Cheers!

I've been reducing my collection to a cube like status in singleton. 4500 cards roughly in packets for them and a few bundle boxes of random cards that are ultimately playable but not necessarily for general play. The collection itself is personal but can support 4 to 8 players with enough land as well. (3000 nonland and 1500 land) I can't seem to assemble a playgroup of either size with time to be creative so screw it- I will build decks as I feel the need to for lgs casual play. Everything is sleeved the same for compatibility and adaptability with all necessary tokens in a separate color and 2 stanley cases for storage of it all. I can travel the multiverse and strixhaven happens to be a plane I like as well. I don't believe in balance. Some mages and planeswalkers should be allowed to be quite scary and powerful. I consider that fun and fair is not the answer because without struggle there is no need to learn or excel. Play should always be provocative and challenging. Otherwise we cant really appreciate lighter styles of play and developmental prerogatives. My collection is legacy singleton 4of 60 card formats are too boring and predictable even in a cube in my opinion. Restrictions hinder development to me at least. To each their own of course. It's nice to see a set thematic cube, I do cherish the effort and thought and thank you for sharing your cube. Liked, subbed and I would like to see some video of it in operation!

I just finished a tarkir bloc cube! I only included cards that were from fate reforged, dragons of tarkir, and khans of tarkir. Super fun. I miss playing it In standard

Kaldheim has been my favorite the past few years but the Strixhaven lesson mechanic was remarkable in terms of versatility. Didn't get much credit for that. Divide by Zero was so good it was banned in some formats.

good video. i like the enthusiasmus, love and thoughts that went into this project. well done. i hope you have for a long time fun with this game :)

I have a crazy amount of cards from Strixhaven and Khaldheim. I definitely have to try this

This looks really fun! Especially since I want to have more opportunities to draft, and am not comfortable enough yet to just draft willy nilly. I tried to make a NEO set cube once, but wasn't sure how to really tweak it to make it more playable.

Based. MTG is at its best in limited formats imo

I have been wanting to build my own cube and this is a very good resource, thank you. PS. If i am not mistaken, jumbo dice come in fat packs(booster bundle) and the small regular dice come in the prerelease packs.

Great video. Instant subscribe!

Beautiful

Great project great video

I might have a go at this. I had trouble building a Strixhaven Commander deck so I might do this instead as Strixhaven gives me that Hogwarts feel

This an amzing video man!! Deserves more views!! I'm gonna make a theros cube like this! How do you think you would approach building a block cube as apposed to just one set?

My wife and I build kamigawaND and are now building Ixalan cube

Cool video

I made this last summer with the LOTR Set, it’s amazing

How/why did you decide to increase the power of the weaker archetypes as opposed to nerfing the stronger archetypes?

Been wanting to do this for the Alara block for years. I know, I know. But I love Alara. Unfortunately, I can't even get my playgroup to draft my vintage (unpowered) cube so I'm not super inspired to make another cube.

Re: Vanilla Creatures - I like vanilla creatures when they're *good*; see Savannah Lions @ (C) in masters sets, for example. To be fair, relatively few vanilla creatures are any good, and they're better in tribal sets (as just being a goblin or zombie or whatever is synergistic), so you're right to remove them from this set. I would, however, be interested in french vanilla white and/or red spirits for synergies...

yeeee. fuck yeeee. i love set cube. thanks for the video. if you want to talk more about set cube. pleaseeeee do (:

7:00 I think this should be Nantuko Husk or Carrion Feeder; I see what you're going for here, but your selection leads to repetitive gameplay and makes removal feel really bad, while Husk or Feeder are more efficient, free outlets without the card advantage. Poacher makes games go longer, but Husk and Feeder can lead to swift ends when you sac your board. There are other similar sacrifice outlets, but those two a constructed playable (C)s with (U) variants if you need to tweak things.

Why not have the same rare, uncommon, and common distribution as the draft boosters?

What a sweet gift for your wife! :3

If I wanted to do this I would have had to have stopped time in about 2015

How do you draft with 2 people?

Would have like to know how much this would have cost

I wish I knew friends who loved limited and draft enough to feel incentivised to build a cube. Sadly so many people are a lot more inclined towards Commander these days. I have a Kamigawa Neo cube about 70 percent built. The next challenge is finding friends!

how much did all this cost? if you said it in the video i must've missed it.

I’m doing this with the unfinity set 💀

W WIFE

strixhaven harry potter set is so lame lmfao
