Draft mine and I'll draft yours (mtgzone.com)

This is a kind of post that I enjoyed a lot in /r/mtgcube in reddit. If you want to give a draft to my cube (I have a brief description in its overview about its archetypes and intended strategies), leave a link to yours and I'll give it a draft too.

I also have a peasant cube in case you prefer it.

P1P1 was Isamaru because I wanted to see how viable Aggro White was, and it turns out pretty good! Saw Lurrus P3P1 and decided to lean further in, seems like a fun, beatdown format. Here's my Draft.

My cube is a color restricted JUND Cube that was just drafted at Cali Cube Champs. Excited to hear your thoughts!

I don't plan to add much from LTR but I want to elevate it to as good as possible for Cubecon'23!

Hey. I swear at some point I'm just going to print a proxy version of Lurrus that simply doesn't have companion, because people sometimes seem so fixated on making it work as a companion while giving up on other powerhouses and high-end cards for their deck hahaha. I personally would have included many of your 3+ cmc cards in the deck.

I drafted your jund cube, and went for a classic Rakdos Aristocrats. I tried to build a color restricted cube once, but I generally got the same problem as my first test draft of your cube, which was that i just picked fixing and good cards in each color and made a 3-color soup of good cards midrange. After I tried to focus on a specific archetype, I also got so many playables that I had to seriously think what to include and what to cut to make the deck.
