![]() I started my build by watching several tutorials online, and I was inspired in part by Brandon Sanderson's unique take on things. I made a real effort to make certain there is no rhyme or reason to the madness, as who would want to take any fun out of cube drafting? It's fantastic fun. It makes you feel like someone must have an advantage, while being certain that person isn't you. It's like playing blackjack with 20 decks of cards and they are all marked randomly. It just looks a lot cooler, and I wanted to provoke discussion about the irrationality of not using one kind of sleeve for the whole collection. ![]() I then sequentially shuffled the sleeves, and the proxies were completely randomized before they were placed in the rainbow sleeve assortment. I chose to combine 19 different 50 packs of sleeves, and one 60 pack. I made proxies in the past like that and they always seemed to bow afterwards, even if left to dry in a vise, making them difficult if not impossible to shuffle. The entire cube is 1010 fully proxied cards on standard letter paper (even the cheap stuff), with each card sleeved and covering a random common card. Drafting more cards led to a far more exciting series of games with everybody having the ability to draft top tier EDH decks. After test drafting multiple times I found the sweet spot where all decks could be great, instead of 2 or 3 people running the table while 2 or 3 others have little to no sync.Nobody goes to a cube draft with somewhere else they need to be later that evening, and the actual drafting is a big part of the fun. Keep in mind this cube is specifically designed to be built into 100 card EDH decks. Yes, it's a HUGE, time consuming draft, well beyond the standard pack size & amount of starting packs per player.
