Cuber DJ – Examining the Pox Archetype

Nov19th

There has recently been a lot of discussion about what to do to help Black become viable again in Cube drafts.

While this was definitely not true when I first created my cube, Black has become the worst color to play in recent times. The rise of creatures has left black in the dust. Wizards has recently decided to give Black creatures with higher toughness than power, to differentiate it from Red.  This isn’t going to do much to solve the problem. READ MORE »

Hi, Welcome back! I took a Diablo III break from writing articles. It’s a fantastic game, but I think I have it out of my system now.

When we last left off, we were discussing the top 10 Johnny traps in the Magic Online Cube.

Cuber DJ – Ten Traps for Johnny in the Magic Online Cube (Part 1 of 2)

Cube is a format for Spike, the win-at-all-costs player. I played the Magic Online Cube extensively the second time it was available. I noticed a lot of cards in the cube that I had cut, sometimes years ago. It seemed to me like Wizards was shoehorning more build-around-me, Johnny cards than would otherwise be needed for a cube drafting experience.

Cuber DJ – Top 10 Unusual Cards From My Cube’s History

I thought I would do a more lighthearted article this week to break up all the seriousness about the new set.  I have been cubing for years now, and I occasionally like to throw curveball cards in the mix for my players that are pretty obscure. Many of them are from Unglued and Unhinged.  Here’s my retrospective of odd cards from my cube’s history.

It is every cube writer’s pleasure to explain what changes will come to the cube with each new set.  I will begin my Avacyn Restored set review with the white and blue cards that I believe will make an impact.

The Beginning of a Cube and the Squirrelpocalypse!

Hi, and welcome to Cuber DJ’s article!

My name is David, and I live in Orlando, Florida. I have been playing MAGIC since 1998 and have logged hundreds, possibly thousands, of hours playing what I consider to be the greatest game ever made. My love of MAGIC eventually motivated me to check out cube drafting. I’ve been an avid cube fan and cube owner for over 3 years now.
