Thats whats fun about cubes, you cherry pick the 1-10 cards from a set you think are interesting and add them, and ignore the rest.

I know a guy who basically makes jumpstart cubes. Like, modular 1/4th or 1/6th cube pieces, which are set up with the pieces for broadish archetypes plus more niche specifics, which he can mix and match to shape the end result. Its way too big brained for me to grasp, but it seems to work well.

Im not huge into draft, but playing cube with older cards is fun as hell. Its neat seeing busted combo pieces being used how they likely were used when they were printed, rather than what they became 8 sets later.

Ugh. What a dumb game lol
