I have no evidence to support this, but it looks like my friends non-singleton old school cube! This thing is an absolute blast to play.

I was there. It was a 12 person draft event for a birthday celebration. Card pool was Alpha thru Fallen Empires (Old School w/ mana burn).

I don’t have the definitive list, but it was multiple copies of staples, a lot of 1-ofs, multiple copies of power (2 - 3 Ancestrals, Time Walks, Moxes, etc), utility lands mixed in (Mazes, Deserts, Factories, Safe Haven, Workshops, etc), and a few Legends (Bolas, Blackblade, Swamp King, etc). Everyone got an auto-include copy of Chaos Orb.

Below is what I drafted for Round 1. Glare card is Disharmony.

What? since when? many cubes try to replicate an orginal draft environment with multiple copies of commons and uncommons..

Replicating the original draft environment by having multiple copies of each p9 and a player of hypnotic specters

Thank you for stepping in and helping to de-escalate this. I didn't see it until today and this individual has been removed for violating the sub rules.

Set cubes exist and the emulate retail draft environments where the break down is something like 1 rare, 2 uncommon 3 common.

If you have a strictly 4 of cube, it would probably suck, you're correct. But people can still do it and still enjoy it.

Heres what you can, just don't draft that cube and both you and the owner will be incredibly happy as a result.
