I am a fan of many of these, at least in cubes which are about leaning into the cool aspects of these.

I get what you're saying here for sure.
Is this a cube specific survey or are we just seeing that constructed players are voting for constructed cards?
I do think this is a pack where the single fetch is much higher of a pick than average for the cube
There are definitely some problems here, but do you view fatal push and emry as problems? If so I'd love to hear more about that.
Bodleian Cube is featured on today's @cubecobra.com P1P1

Vote on what you'd take, I love to see folks thoughts on these.
Why not?
You don't like Fabled Passage?
I had a lot of success redoing this by clustering effects to one "example" card then connecting the examples to eachother based on the shared interaction. It wasn't perfect but it prevented the huge clump
That's definitely something I'll be mindful of going forward.
Do you feel that way about all the companions (in limited)?
I think there's a real cost to fixing and sometimes card quality to make it work. I may overestimate that cost though.
Yorion companion has mysteriously trophies twice in my Bodleian cube since readding it. I wasn't sure anyone would try it but it was a pleasant surprise. It's a very cool deckbuilding challenge.
I feel like SOS is basically "what if we made awesome Magic and were conscious of how many words went on them."
Every set could feel like this, and I hope more of them do going forward. This is most exciting #mtgcube set in a long time.
I'm glad to be here. Discovering Magic in 2020 was awesome.
Its true!
I get that a lot :D. I dove in quickly
I started playing Magic in 2006. My friend
@deinonychus9.bsky.social started in 2020. We're exploring the nuances in starting the same game 14 years apart.
2011 features Mirrodin Besieged, New Phyrexia, M12, and Innistrad. We also talk about Zombies, Game of Thrones, Skyrim, and bans in Standard!
Wow, how often is this being drafted such that you don't see the winner?
Can you count the total altered ones to figure it out?
Vibes are hell yeah and card is cool.
Stern scolding could be in this set. Last time they did 3 counters in the archive. They only spoiled 2 so far.
Yeah this is a straight up W. Can't wait to cube more of these.
Should I add mawloc back in just for you?
It's weird how all these combos are only made up of very expensive cards.
I think this is a sicko answer but I'm excited about Blood Artist.
Thanks! I truly didn'texpect it but it was awesome to check off the event bucketlist.
I bought the 12 pin one figuring I'd only won 5 since 2023 Cubecon. Shoebox really accelerated the fill rate.
@shoebox.gg was incredible.
Designer Pins - Phenomenal idea.
Cube Selection- Top notch.
Top 8ing the Cube Event - Insanely cool surprise.
Experiencing people's excitement about Bodleian - Amazing. I loved getting to share it with folks.
The people - Unparalleled in their passion.
Every part of shoebox I experienced felt like it was setup and run by people from the community who love that way to engage with Magic.
It rocks to see The Fire Swamp be such a breakout success at @shoebox.gg. @aibretty.bsky.social has made such a unique, excellent list. If you haven't tried it you should do so as soon as you can.
I'm sure we could make that happen. It would have been cool to have the top 8 play it, maybe @bostoncubeparty.com will run it back there and you can be the champ of two events.
