Zeal Ascendant Posted April 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 Well, you guys seem to be doing good with the cube... I'll try to help out if I can keep up! And thanks for those logos, Rai! Oh, and fiery hellhound could be included, possibly. I'll try to do an in-depth search soon enough, instead of just thinking something up off the top of my head.

Lonk Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 I'm going to need more experience with Cube Formats in general. So we each make a highlander deck based on the cards given? And once a card is picked, it cannot be picked by anyone else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're drafting a deck from the cards given, in which there is only one copy. So, yes, once someone picks it, you can't. Picking order is randomized then cycled. You'll draft a lot of cards, but you have to pick 60 from them to make a deck obviously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
