Gamers, we have a tight ship to run tomorrow, so we will be locking in Hedron Network *30 MINUTES* before the event starts. Lock in your choices tonight, and rest easy tomorrow morning!

Tomorrow is @chicagostylecu.be and I'm super excited to do some COMMENTARY! Stream starts with the event at 9am central. I'll be on coverage for the morning flight (my arena cube) and the afternoon flight (Urza Block Cube) then passing the mic off for top 8. Pop in! www.twitch.tv/thechicagocube

TWENTY FOUR HOURS TO GO

cube the gathering

Hey #mtgcube friends! Has @domrikade.bsky.social amazing interview with the creator of the first desert cube inspired you? Are you looking forward to @chicagostylecu.be this Saturday? Come play a Bant desert cube with us online via draftmancer + mtgo in an hour on the cubecon server!

Somebody has bought the fifty-seventh ticket to Chicago-Style Cube Event. Please fill out the pod so I don’t have to play Dandân with them for eight hours straight: www.tixtree.com/e/chicago-st...

Did we mention Hedron Network is live? No? Well, now we did. hedron.network/events/chist...

“The gleam of Boogie Boards and my friends and rivals by my side… what more could I want?” —Brognold the Fifth-Sixth to Buy Tickets

DID YOU KNOW? The Spider-Man and TMNT sets focused on Food tokens. This is a subtle nod to the fact that New Yorkers don’t have a Clue.

We now have a little over 48 players for the big day! That fills out pod number…

Well there go my chances of making Top 8.

Some nerd named Noah Mickel will be pounding shots of Malort and jamming at this event, you should come because hanging with that guy is awesome.

Tokens have arrived!

We asked leading Magic: The Gathering scientists what we need at our event, and they all answered the same thing: +EV. Well, we asked, what if we put +EV on top of the +EV we have? But the scientists couldn't answer BECAUSE THEIR MINDS WERE BLOWN.

The time has come.

TIME IS RUNNING OUT! And you have even less time if you didn't move your clocks forward for DST! We lock in the number of meals for catering on the 11th. If you enjoy food, buy your ticket before then!

Forgot to tell you all the answers on this! These decks were 2-1, 3-0, 1-2, and 2-1, respectively.

After some tight negotiations, we’ve booked the Parched Pug for the rest of the year. The cEDH tournament is ON!

And god said: Let there be red, blue, and green, in varying combinations

Really hope I don't have to draw sunglasses or fedoras or do any coloring

Time for our new game: Are You Smarter Than A Chicagoan? Last night the Chicago crew drafted Mazes in the Desert (playable at CSCE!). One of these decks is 3-0. Can you guess which?

Guess what the first big event to use Twodron Network will be. 😎

FIVE PODS DOWN, THREE TO GO! Forty tickets have been sold for Chicago-Style Cube Event! As many as four tens! And that's AMAZING! Pick up the remaining 24 here: www.tixtree.com/e/chicago-st...

post that encourages engagement

Also, to any Shoebox attendees trapped in O’Hare, we recommend Tortas Frontera, with our second-best recommendation being “not making connecting flights through O’Hare”

😁 CSCE: We will not invoke the wrath of the snow gods with our hubris on social media

Having a wonderful day 0 at @shoebox.gg

Five hours into the drive to Shoebox. They should invent a Magic event within the Chicagoland metropolitan area.

I don’t get how all of you are supposed to fit in a single shoebox tbh

The T-shirt is proof that supporting Chicago makes you a better Magic player.

Us when the Whatever Regional Food Variant Beef We Have With Boston War starts and we have to kill Ollie

Every day we’re not sold out is another day I’m too busy to crack open Slay the Spire 2

Thread: Plows in Chicago-Style Cube Event as City of Chicago snow plays fancasts

A pessimist would say our cube event is half sold out. An optimist would say half the tickets are still available. An anarchist would say when this creature enters, you may return target sorcery card from your graveyard to your hand.

We don’t like to talk too much about the exchange rate publicly but this is 100% true

DID YOU KNOW? Our pins are officially sanctioned, meaning just like CubeCon and Boston Cube Party pins, they can be traded at a 3:1 exchange rate for John Wick coins.

if we sell forty tickets i will cosplay mike dikta

EVERYONE IS HERE! Our cube for top 8 is the best of the best, the cream of the crop, the big cheese stands alone, the three-time CubeCon guest you know and love as the @thechicagocube.bsky.social. Fetches. Duals. Gearhulks. Graveyards. Get ready for the sweatiest finals you've ever seen.

Well, thanks for tuning in. That's all eight cubes that you'll see at Chicago-Style Cube Ev— ! #P1P1

Mingos will say it's theirs, but real ones know we have joint custody. Our eighth cube is TREVA'S RUINS, an old-bordered GWU desert cube by Luke. It's truly a masterpiece for the sickos who know how to break parity on Stasis.

people keep asking if they can play 100 ornithopters at csce. buddy they don't even let *me* deconstruct the core mechanics of the game through a whimsical yet simple framework

Our last #P1P1 belongs in a museum. What card are you swapping with a bag of sand?

Kick it old school new school with ALPHA REIMAGINED, our next cube. Simple, evocative cards? Check. Circles of Protection and symmetrical effects? Check. Serra Angel, Control Magic, Dark Ritual, Shivan Dragon, and Channel? Check, check, check, check, and check.

Today's #P1P1 is some classic cardboard, hot off the grill. What's your poison?

If you need a breather, we're here for you. Except Ellie. Ellie and their green cards are not here for you.

Are you in it to pin it? Sixteen of these pins are going home with the players who outdraft, outbuild, and outplay the rest of their pods. The remaining nine will be fed to anyone who 0-6s.

Wow, what a coincidence running into Mazes in the Desers here in Dallas!

Pack One Pick Ones will pick up next week, along with announcements of our remaining cubes. Tied up with some business travel. You should totally still buy tickets, though. www.tixtree.com/e/chicago-st...
