Battle Box: No Setup, No Bad Mana, All Magic

Andy and Anthony discuss all things Battle Box, one of their favorite casual ways to play Magic. A Battle Box is a great thing to have for quick games between and around matches. Without the variance of land draws it’s both very approachable and gives spikes an opportunity to test their skills in detailed aspects of gameplay.

Our listener submitted pack 1, pick 1 this week comes from Milkshake1988’s spell’s only cube, which really commits to the bit.

Discussed in this episode:

• Brian Demars’ Danger Room
• Ben Stark’s Battle Box
• Anthony’s Original List and much tidier current rework
• Andy’s Graveyard Themed Battle Box
• Degenerate Turbo Cube Draft
• Oko Bridge in the DMC

Check us out on Twitch and YouTube for paper Cube gameplay.

You can find the hosts’ Cubes on Cube Cobra:

• Andy’s “Bun Magic” Cube
• Anthony’s “Regular” Cube
