Limited Inspired Secrets of Strixhaven++ Cube - First Cube Looking for Feedback
As someone who really enjoyed drafting the 5 schools this set, but felt that 5 color converge became repetitive, I decided to try my hand at building a cube for the first time.
The main changes from retail SOS are the removal of converge payoff cards, as well as some of the bombs that felt most frustrating to play against like Practiced Offense, Ark of Hunger, and Moment of Reckoning. To supplement these removals I primarily drew from original STX, to hopefully create a more varied format. I also thought it would be fun to include the off-color Dragon Lords from Dragons of Tarkir, my goal being to provide the same idea that converge did and encourage splashing, while hopefully avoiding the 5 color soup strategy by removing mana fixing.
I tried to do some Bot Drafts on Cube Cobra to test how the cube plays, and while my own drafted decks came out as expected I could not get the bots to draft anything other than 5 colors. Also despite the settings for the 23/17 split they continued to draft some wacky decks like a 30 land 10 playable pile.
Again this is my first time making a cube of any kind, so feedback on issues I might have missed or am not even aware of are always appreciated!
