Well, when I mentioned 36 cards from each guild, I didn't mean 36 gold cards. So far my list per guild would be tree color-foxing artifacts, three special lands, 10 of each color, and the last 10 can be between the duals and colorless, whichever is the best blend for those, 5 of each maybe? 6/4? Not sure yet.
So, I'd like to start off saying that cube looks very fun and I really would like to build one for my friends to play, but the more I think about it and start thinking of cards to put in it, the more I miss the point of it. I really like the Ravnica guilds, and I would use mostly cards from those Ravnica sets. I would even add in some more cards with the new upcoming Ravnica set With 360 cards, there would be 36 from each guild, which would be super easy to do. But then I start thinking, well, with 8 people drafting from 10 guilds, each player would basically choose one guild and draft that guild exclusively, and each player would do that. The last two just wouldn't be played at all, since we only build 40-card decks. I could just foresee the same drafting happening each time I do it, and consider just building 10 decks, one for each of the guilds, and we could just pick decks and do a tourney with those.
How do you balance a cube so that you could still get a different deck each time you draft with it, to make things interesting?
So, this interaction between Chandra, Bold Pyromancer and Willbender came up in a game a few days ago, and this was obviously a game-making play, and we couldn't reach a decision so we ended it in a draw for the time being. My opponent used Chandra's -7, targeting me obviously, and so I flipped up Willbender to change the target to him. My understanding is that Chandra only has a single target, which is a player. The rest just happens. I'm fairly certain this is how it goes, but everyone else is so adamant otherwise, I need some help to back me up, or to officially prove me wrong
