Made my first Cube from my collection!
I've always wanted to make / draft a Cube and recently I've found a regular pod of players, but I'm between jobs (nice way of saying unemployed) so I don't have much money to invest, so I thought I would just try making one from my existing collection (some 11+ yrs of it), plus some bulk bin buys / booster pulls now and then.
I've now been able to do some small draft 'events' with 3 friends and it has been a blast, even though some of them are new to draft, the games were relatively even and interesting with back and forth plays. As I wasn't ordering singles I couldn't guarantee archetypes, fixing, balance, I had to design from what I had but all things considered I think it is relatively balanced / synergistic. It's been great/nostalgic to see some old or niche cards from my collection finally see play again.
It is 180 cards for 4 players but I'd like to expand it into a 240 or 360 card cube as time goes on, my collection expands and I get more playtests in! Just happy to make a start in this awesome format.
