Reject rare draft always looked fun to me and I thought mixing it in with Cubing could lead to a fun cheap cube. The idea would be that all cards would have to have been printed at least once at either rare, mythic, or uncommon 1 (in an old set). I also include the Harper Prism book promos and Nalathini Dragon as potential rares. The cards must have at least a use/reason to play so no Wood Elementals or Pale Moons. The cards should also not be good enough to be included in a large regular cube. Cards should cost $1 or less with few exceptions (sometimes there's an older cool crap rare like Serendib Djinn that costs a bit more but could be fun or interesting). An upside is that you get play with cards that you may never play with otherwise and even garbage rares can be fun. It puts them to good use. Thoughts?
When I see Healing Salve, I'm often like "Oh girl, I wish I could turn every card into this." Thanks they removed the gain life part, otherwise this would have been broken.
Or alternately search Gatherer for rares ordered by ascending community rating (so the worst appear first). I recall posting a link in the articles subforum to a post on the mothership where the author basically built a cube using the cards with the lowest Gatherer community rating - that'd probably be a pretty good start, ironically.
