🏆 7 wins in my first Arena Vintage Cube Draft! I rarely trophy my MTGO drafts, but I'm definitely happy that more people get to play vintage cube even if the field is softer

What's the pick here? Some discussion in the @cubeforacause.upkeepnewyork.com discord. My pick in the comments.

Made the mistake of being interested in a secret lair for the first time in a while. Got there early, joined the queue, and everything I wanted sold out in 45 minutes while I still had another hour left in the queue. Really cool, guys.

I hope we get this Reprieve art in paper soon. It's so good!

What are some cards similar to Strategic Betrayal / Go Blank that have graveyard hate stapled onto a slightly below-rate effect? Looking for effects across colors, ideally less powerful than Lion Sash and more maindeckable than Soul-Guide Lantern.

3-0 in last week's cube night - the inaugural draft of a 4-color artifact cube!
I ended up drafting mostly a historic/legends deck with a lot of creatures that were able to dodge artifact removal by being non-artifacts.
Exorcise is also crazy in a cube with artifact lands.

Currently there are eleven cubes that you can use in your @scryfall.com searches with "cube:" and they're all woefully out of date. What would it take to extend this search term to all lists on @cubecobra.com?

I think Atraxa and Archon of Cruelty are both too much. maybe Griselbrand is OK?

What's a good reanimation target for Zonal Synergy? I feel like Scourge of Nel Toth is showing its age...

Final round of PTQ, opp convinced me to ID at 5-2 but I don't really understand the math here.
Top 32 play day 2 and top 128 get a pricey promo.
Can anyone weigh in on whether I had a shot at top 32 if I won?
Chances I would fall out of top 128 if I lost?
My breakers were exactly average.

The dream? Take X combat steps in a row, where X is the amount of green mana you can produce.
Did I live it? Unfortunately not. Maybe next draft.

2-1 in @scottmirts.upkeepnewyork.com Curio Cube! I love this cube, it's a pretty high power level but has some pretty unusual archetypes. I ended up in 4 color mono green with enchantress and modified subthemes.
