Team Drafted @aethervjorn.bsky.social's Vistas Unventured tonight in the @cubecon.org discord server. An awesome cube experience and a nice way to get a feel for desert cube drafting!

Free Vintage #MTGCube on @magiconline.bsky.social is great! Especially when you get to use your P2P1 Black Lotus to cast your P3P1 Forth Eorlingas!

"My biggest goal with this card was for it to be played in Cube." JED with a banger that will most definitely be played in #MTGCube!

Sweet deck! Is the plus for lands?

So right before the draft I actually looked up the worlds decks and saw that it was half the top 8 for worlds which definitely influenced my draft direction.

I passed Kamahl, Fist of Krosa (P1P3 for MW, then again P1P11) and it was definitely the needed wincon. Oppo MW drafter crushed me with it!

Kamahl, Fist of Krosa {4}{G}{G}
Legendary Creature — Human Druid
{G}: Target land becomes a 1/1 creature until end of turn. It's still a land.
{2}{G}{G}{G}: Creatures you control get +3/+3 and gain trample until end of turn.
4/3

Went 2-1 with Bant Mirari's Wake in @gavinverhey.bsky.social's Museum of Standard 2000-2003 cube tonight in the @cubecon.org Discord Server. Lost to the other Mirari's Wake deck that went 3-0! This cube was a *lot* of fun, who knew cards from the early 2000s could be so sweet!

I hate getting got by some of the most absurd Arena only cards I've never seen before. This Crocodile is on my most hated list.

Perforator Crocodile {3}{B}{B}{B}
Creature — Crocodile
When Perforator Crocodile enters, for each creature your opponents control, conjure a card named Stab Wound onto the battlefield attached to that creature.
