As Commander and Cube are both singleton formats, I was wondering if any of us cube curators use their cube as a shell for possible commander decks.
I noticed Tiny Leaders decks can be made from classic cubes as well.
Has anybody done this? If yes, what commanders do you use?
How much non cube cards did you have to add to make it a commander deck?
I built my edh cube basically because my purchasing habits for commander back in 2009-2012 were so omnivorous, that I thought I might as well build a cube and pull decks out of it whenever I wanted to run an actual constructed list. Between 2012 and 2016 though, I never tapped my cube as an edh deck hangar, because I never really felt the urge to go back to my FLGS' edh nights. It was only recently that I started working on some actual (non-pauper) edh decks, but I limited myself to ultra-casual block edh decks now, so that I'm not as tempted to make more redundant edh staple card purchases again; part of what drove me towards the edh cube in the first place!
Not exactly, but I do often "demote" cube cards to EDH decks after I foil them out or replace them with something new and better which makes my decks a bit different from what I see other EDH-ers playing. I've also built an EDH expansion for my cube so it can be drafted for multiplayer games, check the bottom of my cube thread's intro post for details. The aggro one-drops end up being mostly dead picks, but it still makes for a really fun multiplayer game.

Yeah, I did that once, to play the first tiny leader tourney. Didn't work well.
