I played the Star Trek CCG in the 90s so I have no idea how all the Treks can be in just one Magic set. Like I could make one set from just one series. I imagine things from those games will appear in some form. Planet missions were basically Battles.

I just want a Q Archenemy Precon.

Making a request to share your favorite strange, old artifact cards!

Anything bizarre or obscure will do, but bonus points if it effects the whole board or actually has some niche gameplay incentive. The older and stranger, the better.

Yeah I was starting to get worried I missed something. I don’t see anything describing of how they’ll handle it anywhere. I should probably chill out as they’re probably figuring it all out. 🤪

Oh yeah! That’s the website! I’m still wondering if they’ll use it again and when I should do that personal preference prioritization thingy on the cubes I want to play.

Hey @cubecon.org! I’m incredibly excited to attend once again! 😝
I’m wondering how you’ll do signing up for cubes, tracking the main event, etc. I don’t see anything related to it on the website or posted here. Same system as last year? It was a website… whose name I can’t recall. Please help out! 🙏

CubeCon

The world's largest celebration for Magic's best format!

You’re an 8th grader at a highschool open house and somebody at this table says, “Hey kid! You play games? Come to this school next year and…”

A table with Game Club shirts, custom swag, a bowl full of dice, a bowl full of Magic packs, and stacks of DnD books, in a gym, with 3 smiling high schoolers behind the table.

I had to draw the image myself because my PC did not have internet access where I could search for it, nor would it for quite some time.

I’m increasingly understanding what a dinosaur I am in the ever changing Magic community, and am also finding I enjoy it immensely. 👴🏻

In 1997, I drew a pixelated Magic: the Gathering cardback in MS Paint, and then selected the image for this screensaver, making it a never-ending maze of Magic cards.

My friend has a playset of Cursed Scrolls in Japanese, which have a misprinted activation cost of 2 rather than 3, for his #Premodern deck. 😯

As an adolescent, I recall literally dreaming of discovering a trove of Magic cards, only to awaken disappointed. Sure is easier to get them now that I’m 41 years old. 😂

Heck yeah! They’re fostered an amazing scene there. I’m trying to make it out there for more Commander. It’d be rad to run into you there! 🤞

Huge shout-out to my LGS Old Guard Games for patiently working with me to stretch my limited resources and secure a trove of #DnD books kids will benefit from for years. 👨‍🏫

Way to truly support next generation of the gaming community! 🙏

Oh the places these books will let kids go… 📚📚📚📚📚📚
