More #MTGCube drafts yesterday evening.
First is from an Unpowered Midrange-y list.
Second is from The Ham Sandwich (my Peasant list with a half dozen tame rares added).

Post #CubeCon trip to Milwaukee has been great. Always like to extend a trip a few days and just spend a few days somewhere new.
Herbie Hancock concert at the Pabst Theater was excellent. Really glad that lined up.
Big props to the Grohmann Museum being open on a Tuesday too.

Amazing time at #CubeCon this year! Got to meet & hang out with some awesome people, both my Omnipresent Impostors and Creative Cubes each fired 5 times this weekend, and played some of the tightest Magic today I ever had. Just BARELY missed Top 8, losing in extra turns of game 3 of the last round--

Lunch countertop 4-person draft of Zac Hill's Standard cube was sweet.
Definitely would have played this cube in the main event if I didn't interpret it as a "current" standard cube. "This is how I design sets" is much more cooler.

Died in top 64 of #MTGCube #CubeCon in the Vistas Uncharted cube. Deck felt good, it was engine-ing pretty well.
Good way to finish the main event.

Made Top 128 #CubeCon and played Alpha Reimagined again for the final draft of today.
Went 2-0, then lost a BO1 against the creator in the finals because we wanted to leave and it didn't matter for cut to top 64.
Awesome cube, glad to have drafted it twice. #MTGCube

Lost finals of the CORESIR Cube in a RB mirror. They had Falkenrath Aristocrat and I didn't.
"Abandoned" blue early in pack 2 when I took a Boros Recoker pick 3 over a Ral Zarek.

2-1 in The Museum for the second draft of Friday at #MTGCube #CubeCon.
My deck felt like a hodgepodge. I had a couple powerful cards, whiffed a bit on Slide, and could have used more critters. Died to goblins, which felt significantly better than the rest of the pod.

Also drafted the ball pit for the side event after the prequel draft because I didn't realize that was possible (oops). Worse deck for sure this time, but managed a 2-1 (technically 2-0-1?).
I tried to pick up some big mana stuff, but I think you need to get lucky and table most of that. #MTGCube

Got the 3-0 in today's #CubeCon prequel draft out of the Ball Pit. Strange draft, neat experience. My deck felt like it just had solid mana and answers when most people didn't. #MTGCube

Mamoru Oshii planned it. A young Satoshi Kon took the lead on its layouts. The result: a stunning moment from Patlabor 2.

Why are "Become the monarch" and "Take the initiative" not categorized as keywords, but "Venture into the dungeon" is? Is that a single owner vs designation thing?
