Another non-Crack a Pack post?!
So hey, blog update. 🙂 I updated the physical copy of my pauper cube, but didn’t have time to update the CT list and I’ve loaned it out to a friend for him to use (which hasn’t seen as much use here with the group that I weekly cube with. Different strokes yada yada.) Off…

Tri-Hybrids etc.
In my article review of Fate Reforged, I talked about me putting the tri-hybrid cards like Yasova Dragonclaw into my colorless/miscellaneous section. Here, I’ll talk about why. In the article, I mentioned that due to the hybrid mana, it’s actually easier to cast the tri-color hybrids than traditional tricolors and that they go into…

Crack-a-pack, Episode #46
Also, I finally updated my pauper cube. Instead of doing a massive update (the card that I was most happy to update was… Rubblebelt Makka of all things), I decided to just rebuild it as a 360-card list here: http://cubetutor.com/viewcube/10790 Why? Partly as a thought exercise to see how it’d be if I built it…

Theros and whatnot update
If you’ve come from my latest SCG article talking about the Theros additions to the MTGO cube, I talked about the changes to their list. I decided that now would be a good time to get my list up and up to date on Cube Tutor with some explanations behind the cut.

Regular Cube update
List is updated to reflect the current contents and pictures reflect its current content. I’m running the cube equivalent of “the becker” by going up to 460 cards and one of the big things is that it now has all 10 signets. Explanations about the changes are behind the cut. (but part of it was…

Pauper Cube Update in Picture Form
I’ve updated my pauper cube (cutting it to 400 cards) after a long time in picture form behind the cut. I’ve decided to include complete cycles of a lot of multicolor fixers, since the fixing at pauper is quite bad. All of the bouncelands and signets, Onslaught cycling lands (but the Urza’s Saga ones got…

[Usman’s Cube] M13 Update (in picture form)
Update in picture form behind the cut, with present cube contents. Changed multi and artifacts a bit, as I put the cards into colorless which see a good amount of play in colorless decks (Metamorph, Porcelain Legionnaire, Dismember) while keeping Birthing Pod in green. I also changed multi to have 3 multicolor cards and 5…

[Usman’s cube] Avacyn Restored (along with other) changes – 4/29/12
Although a lot of the changes involve cards from Avacyn Restored, note that this update isn’t just adding what cards are “good enough” for my cube. Every update in my cube is a Kaizen-style revisiting of the environment, looking for ways to continually improve it. This one is no exception. Changelog to come later, but…
