Description

Ravnica has a wonderful and flavorful history -- and some of the best draft mechanics of all time!

This cube uses cards from original Ravnica block (RAV, GPT, DIS) and Return to Ravnica block (RTR, GTC, DGM) blocks plus Guilds (GRN), Allegiance (RNA) and War of the Spark (WAR). Ravnica flavored cards from other sets are also eligible, such as Juri, Master of the Revue from Commander Legends. Big shout out to my nephew A for identifying many of these!

The list is singleton by artwork -- mostly so I can get more copies of shock and gate lands. For a regular draft, packs made from pulling one from each of the 13 'archetypes' plus a land and a legendary -- or just from a fully random sampling can be used. (This will cause the distribution of lands to go down and legendaries to go up.)

Because of the emphasis on Legendary creatures, this can also function as a commander draft cube. I suggest you set aside all monocolored Legendaries and Planeswalkers and with the remaining multi-color legendaries seed 20 card packs with at least 2-4 of them. Allow two picks per pack. Planeswalkers can be your commander. An extra color may be added to your commander if needed to make a 60 card deck. There are many cards in the cube that will go up in pick order for multi-player games!

Some rules that newer players may need reminders of: old cards that say "creature or player" now include "planeswalker" as a possible target. Landwalk means the creature can't be blocked if an opponent controls a land of that type. Regenerate means the next time a creature would die from a destroy effect or lethal damage, tap it and remove all damage instead. Protection from creatures means it is unblockable.

Please try a sample draft and let me know what you think!
