# 72 - Pioneer x Pioneer x Pioneer (Pioneer Cubed)

Not everybody is going to be able to go back to their local game stores right away later this year to play MTG, but I'm sure it will become a lot easier to get friends together at each other's places for some casual MTG. Cubing has been out for a few years but it's been growing in popularity year over year. The idea is simple: You take 360+ of your favorite cards, balance the colors, and then stick them in a box with some land. Once you have 6 or more people to play, you shuffle those cards up and then break them into 15 card "booster packs" which you and your friends then draft.

 

It's like drafting, but without the cost associated with having to buy packs all the time. You can use all of those Pioneer cards not already in your decks that are sitting your collection, and the beauty of it is that Cubes are highly customizable. Whether you like playing with big dumb creatures, combos, or control cards, Cubes have it all.

 

Special guest Dreams of Ashiok joins us once again to talk about the MTGO Pioneer cube that was available a while back. We talk about what cards we liked in the cube, what cards we'd love to see added to the cube, and also discussed all the variety of ways you could build your own personal cube in the future. It's a great way to introduce your friends casually into the wonderful Pioneer format and also to have something you can always take with you to events in the future!
