Sorry for jumping to the end here, since this isn't *a* perfect #mtgcube card, it's *the* perfect cube card.

PG-Rated "It's Decorative Gourd Season" just dropped @mcsweeneys.net

Joining us at Untapped Libraries is @aibretty.bsky.social who designed a cube based on a prompt for Cube For A Cause, an NYC MTG charity event. The prompt? Déja Vu. We dig into what that might mean and inspire for a Cube as well as what it might mean and inspire for a Cube. untappedlibraries.com

Someone in our @cubeforacause.upkeepnewyork.com Discord just posted about running back our Holiday White Elephant Stone Soup from last year (unsleeved, keep what you draft) and I'm SO EXCITED to make this an Upkeep tradition!

The second recording from our coverage of @cubeforacause.upkeepnewyork.com Obscura is up. In @johnclara.bsky.social's Cube, Redemption, you start with a card of your choice from your draft pool in your graveyard. www.youtube.com/watch?v=RLRh...

If someone you know doesn't use AI for any part of their process, is open to work, and has experience in any of the following, please reach out ASAP on Discord! - web developer - social media manager - discord mod - managing an artist's alley, con vendors, etc. discord.gg/FfzAgE5zc #mtgcube

This cube was my #1 to play at @bostoncubeparty.com last year and it absolutely delivered. The designer did such a good job finding really clean mechanical overlaps across the 3 sets in a way that was so satisfying. Highly recommend!

Pretty happy with how a stack of white cardboard boxes made simultaneous face-up drafts work! Was such a pleasure to record with Ryan.

Based on the hype I've seen, we all have a LOT of #mtgcube homework to do for FRA: luckypaper.co/survey/fra/ Get at it nerds!

Visual Design Prompt - reimagine and redesign the original 151 Pokemon exclusively using product names from the Ikea catalogue. This thought brought to you by me wife building furniture in the room and me pronouncing EKET like "Ekans!"

Come to Upkeep NYC and @cubeforacause.upkeepnewyork.com - we out in these streets designing cubes based on dystopian utilitarian short stories.

Gooood afternoon #MTGCube Players!!! It’s with tremendous excitement that I ask you to SAVE THE DATE: CUBE FOR A CAUSE AW27 FEB 20 & 21, 2027 160 players Over 20 cubes Brooklyn, New York Flyers and tickets forthcoming There’s going to be some fun surprises and prizes this time ;)

LOOKING FOR SPONSORS! Trying to do something much more ambitious next year but venues in Boston are prohibitively expensive. If you can help in any way or know someone who can, lmk! RTs appreciated ❤️

I also guested on Lucky Paper Radio this week! I think you'll find our conversation about "Weird Cubes" fun and insightful! luckypaper.co/podcast/322-...

An enormously satisfying 3-0 in a cube I fell in love with immediately. I have so many more thoughts but it’s 1:30am and I must sleep. Thank you Lincoln and the whole @capitolcube.org team. Long live Cube.

If you're more of an Audio/Podcast person vs. written words, you can also now listen to my Obscura Design interview with @andy.luckypaper.co and @anthony.luckypaper.co if that's more your speed! The article goes into more detail around my experience at Obscura too! open.spotify.com/episode/70jB...

Today's cube announcement is something a bit more Dangerous! Designed by @ollie.bostoncubeparty.com for Obscura, Dangerous is a desert cube where all the lands are pain lands! cubecobra.com/cube/list/Da...

I did a thing! Scott asked me to write a bit about my full Obscura experience (spanning nearly a year!) from Cube Ideation all the way through making Top 8 at the event itself! This is long - since it's both design article and tournament report - but please let me know your thoughts!

I’m getting married today. open.spotify.com/track/21qnJA...

First episode of or Obscura interview series is out today!

Interested in more? We have more featured cubes on our site, sites.google.com/view/garden-... Tickets are still available! #mtgcube

I won't be able to be at GSC, but one of me scurvy mates will be smuggling The Perilous Seas to the event. While this event is sadly right before the massive shakeup I'm anticipating from Nauctis, I love where this cube is right now, especially since cutting a few big outliers!

JACE: I have created a universe free of suffering. Also I killed that guy's dog. 10/10 Theorist, good job.

I mean, slow burn but incredible bit @gavinverhey.bsky.social

I mean, I kinda nailed it?

WHO'S THE MOST POWERFUL MIND MAGE NOW?! Broken clock calls shot.
