So we're playing your cube at the next event — that's great! Here are a few important things to remember.
Before the event:
Include only English cards. Not everyone in the community can read German (or other languages), so make sure your cube is accessible to all players.
Share the list. Cube players love knowing what they’re getting into. Share your cube list with the community before the event! If you’re not sure how, check out https://cubecobra.com. Also consider preparing a short (max 5 minutes) but informative introduction to your cube — highlight themes, mechanics, archetypes, and anything else that’ll help players draft meaningfully.
Prepare the boosters. Yes, preparing boosters can be a drag — but it’s much worse if you’re doing it during the event. Pro tip: cube shells may seem fancy and unnecessary, but they make a big difference for a smooth draft. You're not expected to own them — if you don't, coordinate with others in the community.
On the day of the event:
Bring all the tokens the cube can produce. Board states can get messy fast. Having a good assortment of tokens helps keep things clear. Pro tip: If your cube is on Cube Cobra, you can check which tokens you’ll need by going to Analysis > Tokens.
Bring dice. If you've ever had to represent a +1/+1 counter or a planeswalker's loyalty without dice, you already know why you should bring plenty.
Enjoy! Having people play your cube is a very special thing. Have fun with it!
