Wait a minute

Damn... it's real

Weird to me that Booster Tutor in MTGA is not implemented rules as written. The opened pack isn't even revealed!

I don't care how correct it may be. I will never pick Ragavan over Time Walk.

I was in meetings yesterday when I saw my phone flood with notifications, tags, congrats and more. I don’t have words to express how cool it is to be shouted out by prof and the team at TCC for being part of the proliferation of sick grass roots events. Cube has been healing, moving experience & 1/x

can't wait for 17lands data to tell us that some big dumb made-for-commander card is actually stronger than a mox

🏆 7 wins in my first Arena Vintage Cube Draft! I rarely trophy my MTGO drafts, but I'm definitely happy that more people get to play vintage cube even if the field is softer

What's the pick here? Some discussion in the @cubeforacause.upkeepnewyork.com discord. My pick in the comments.

In parallel with the announcement earlier today, the Cube Format Panel (it me!) is excited to announce the 2025 Beta for the Cube Bracket system! We've rigorously updated and refined our language to describe cube experiences, creating an unquestionably comprehensive tool for all designers.

Wow!!!! Now this is exciting.

Running the Hybrid Commander Cube all weekend at #CubeCon. If you're an EDH brewer, this is the cube for you! www.cubecobra.com/cube/overvie...

Made the mistake of being interested in a secret lair for the first time in a while. Got there early, joined the queue, and everything I wanted sold out in 45 minutes while I still had another hour left in the queue. Really cool, guys.

It's been a bit of time since I've focused or taken a holistic look at the Devoid Cub and thinking about making some pretty significant changes re: power outliers. These are the cards that I'm thinking about potentially cutting (thread to follow)...

What would it take to add [email protected] Elo score into @scryfall.com search?

It's Wednesday and we had 14 people for cube at @cubeforacause.upkeepnewyork.com's weekly Cube night! We had a new cube "Choose your own adventure" fire its first draft (and @johnclara.bsky.social can share some more about that).I played one of our long time drafters @maxspero.bsky.social's cube!

I hope we get this Reprieve art in paper soon. It's so good!

Super exciting night tonight at @cubeforacause.upkeepnewyork.com as we did our first Stone Soup draft! 9 players, no guidelines, and a wild experience!

Girlfriend learned the forbidden art of altering Magic cards

2-0 cube night with madness.dek after a p1p1 tortured existence. Can't wait for C4AC!!

104 tickets is insane!! Lfg!!!!

I miss the days when secret lairs were print to demand

What are some cards similar to Strategic Betrayal / Go Blank that have graveyard hate stapled onto a slightly below-rate effect? Looking for effects across colors, ideally less powerful than Lion Sash and more maindeckable than Soul-Guide Lantern.

3-0 in last week's cube night - the inaugural draft of a 4-color artifact cube! I ended up drafting mostly a historic/legends deck with a lot of creatures that were able to dodge artifact removal by being non-artifacts. Exorcise is also crazy in a cube with artifact lands.

Trophied my first EOE draft with UR artifacts! 🏆 7-2

Didn't play EOE prerelease tonight, but I did 7-0 a Chromatic Cube draft!

Final Fantasy Dimir Trophy 🏆 blue was wildly open lol

thank you gavin verhey!!

Banger

7-2 🏆 with Sultai Ramp! Still loving this format

Currently there are eleven cubes that you can use in your @scryfall.com searches with "cube:<id>" and they're all woefully out of date. What would it take to extend this search term to all lists on @cubecobra.com?

Final Fantasy draft trophy! 🏆 My first time making RW equipment work, still barely made playables.

Zonal Synergy Cube updates! new reanimation targets. very excited to put this PTQ promo Tifa to use 😎

What's a good reanimation target for Zonal Synergy? I feel like Scourge of Nel Toth is showing its age...

Final round of PTQ, opp convinced me to ID at 5-2 but I don't really understand the math here. Top 32 play day 2 and top 128 get a pricey promo. Can anyone weigh in on whether I had a shot at top 32 if I won? Chances I would fall out of top 128 if I lost? My breakers were exactly average.

Spectating a limited game after my match ended, just watched someone tap 3 mana to cast Sephiroth's Intervention and gain three life.

On my way to Magiccon Vegas!

3-0 at the Final Fantasy Prerelease with grixis spells! This is gonna be a fun set

A little more digression on this cube. I've actually always kinda loved the mtgfinance side of the hobby, and I'm absolutely thrilled with how cheap so many good and/or powerful magic cards have become through reprint strategies like commander decks, the list, etc.

my favorite part of spoiler season is the heated reddit discussions where one person is says "this card sucks in modern" and the other says "this card is busted in commander" but instead of naming a format they say "too expensive" or "opponents" and this just completely goes over the other's head

The dream? Take X combat steps in a row, where X is the amount of green mana you can produce. Did I live it? Unfortunately not. Maybe next draft.

2-1 in @scottmirts.upkeepnewyork.com Curio Cube! I love this cube, it's a pretty high power level but has some pretty unusual archetypes. I ended up in 4 color mono green with enchantress and modified subthemes.

hell yeah

Got a full pod tonight at @upkeepnewyork.bsky.social for the maiden voyage of The Perilous Seas, my Grixis Desert cube with Pirates of the Caribbean vibes: cubecobra.com/cube/overvie...

If you watched this video And you liked it And you live in NYC You should come to Upkeep 7 pm every Wednesday @ Brooklyn Game Knight in industry city We don’t have this one But we do have great cubes And a lot of fun Cube is forever baby Come game with us #mtgcube

Happy Wednesday to all Wednesday cubers! P1P1 of the Zonal Synergy Cube, what would you take?

We're excited to announce that Capitol Cube Championship will be returning on September 20th! For more details or to purchase your ticket, check out capitolcube.org

I'm such a foil noob. Is there a resource on foils by set? Like I assume the great foiling is part of the reason foil M10 lightning bolt is 8x more expensive than an MM2 foil bolt. But as someone who started playing in 2020 I have no prior on this.

Why don't 2025 foils pop as much as this?
