Graham and James challenge the notion that Mono-Black is a trap in the MTGO cube. How successful are they?

Join Michael Hetrick (_ShipItHolla) for his last regular contribution to MTGO Academy with a Cube draft.

This time Limited Resources’ Marshall tries to do something a little “less fair” with his Cube draft: Ramp. Check out the vids inside!

In this episode, I try to answer the basic questions regarding OOP drafting: why you should do it, and how you should do it. After that, you can follow along as I try to maneuver myself through my third-ever Mirage-Visions-Weatherlight draft. Watch me as I open most-valuable cards, stick to my strategy from the get-go and not once get confused by banding.

Marshall takes a ride on the new Magic Online Cube train! What kind of cards will he choo-choo-choose!?!? (Note: Train analogy has nothing to do with these videos.)

Last episode’s non-commented bonus draft was received quite well, so I prepared another one. The draft is quite interesting because it results in a deck which is rather non-conventional without being overly greedy or outright bad. Afterwards, you get to watch my final M13 draft.

With Graham away, James brings in Limited Resources‘ Marshall Sutcliffe and forces him to favor comedy over playability in this M13 Draft. In some hands this could fail horribly.
