Episode Description
View all cards mentioned in this episode
Andy and Anthony talk about the concept of power level band or range in Cubes. It’s sometimes said a Cube should have a pretty even power level, with the strongest card being not too much stronger than the weakest, is a good idea. Our hosts talk about why that doesn’t always make sense and strategies for making Cubes with a wide band of power that still make sense.
Discussed in this episode:
- Regular Cube
- Sacred Geometry
- Recross the Paths
- Neoclassical Cube
- Bun Magic Cube
- 100 Ornithopters
- Irregular Cube
