540 Card Vintage Cube | $100

If the Modern Cube is “tight, fair-ish Magic,” this Vintage list is the one where you open Black Lotus and immediately start making irresponsible life choices (the good kind).

Vintage Cube highlights

• Powered fast mana, powered problems. Lotus + the full Mox suite, Mana Crypt, Sol Ring, Vault/Monoliths, LED… this cube is built for explosive starts and “wait, you did what on turn two?”

• Iconic blue nonsense is fully online. Ancestral Recall, Time Walk, Timetwister, Force of Will, Mana Drain, Jace plus the whole cantrip/counter package means control and combo both feel real.

• Combo lanes that actually pay you off.

  • Tinker → Blightsteel / Portal to Phyrexia

  • Show and Tell / Sneak Attack / Through the Breach

  • Reanimator (Entomb + Reanimate/Animate Dead/Necromancy + Griselbrand/Archon)

  • Breach/Storm-adjacent lines (Wheel effects, Brain Freeze, tutors, LED, Yawgmoth’s Will)

• Stax and prison are here for the sickos. Winter Orb, Strip/Waste, Workshop, fast artifacts, plus disruptive white creatures (Thalia effects, Containment Priest, etc.) give you the “no, you may not play Magic today” deck.

• The land section is stacked. Duals + fetches + premium utility (Academy, Workshop, Cradle, Library, Depths/Stage, Ancient Tomb) lets drafters cast their spells and do degenerative side quests.

Who this Vintage cube is perfect for

• Players who want the “highlight reel” draft. Big swings, busted turns, insane topdecks, and decks that feel like they’re doing something unfair on purpose.

• Groups that like drafting archetypes, not just good cards. The lanes are strong and distinct, and the draft rewards committing early and knowing when to pivot.

• Experienced drafters (or brave learners). The power level is high and the decision density is real. If your table enjoys tight sequencing, stack fights, and “I can’t believe that worked,” this is your cube.

• Anyone who wants a powered cube night without the scavenger hunt. You get the classic Vintage experience in one clean package—ready to shuffle, sleeve, and draft.
