Are you a limited sicko who's cube curious? I'm diving into the subtle differences between booster draft and cube draft, including what makes a card powerful, and how to evaluate interaction and fixing.

Taking a peek at an unsupported archetype in OM1! Black and green have some particularly synergistic cards that work uniquely well in tandem.

Thanks, Cal. It’s not over yet, but if they were going to reach out and give me credit I would think they would have contacted me by the time it was announced. But I am not really surprised. A little disappointed. But not surprised. It’s cool to see it in print as an official product.
