Our Strixhaven and Commander 2021 Cube surveys are open! Please take a few minutes to let us know what you’re testing in your cube from the new sets.
This week, Andy and Anthony share a little of their personal history and how important their tools for critical discourse they learned in art school have been to their lives, Magic very much included. They talk about how they first met and the ubiquitous art school critique.
From their pack 1, pick 1 of Jean’s Fast Multiplayer Cube they delve into they change their card evaluations in a multi-player format. I’m not saying it’s a spoiler, but The Akroan War gets a little special attention for it’s flavorful top down design, complex play patterns, and stunning artwork.
