Evolving Cubes and the Power of Novelty
Episode description
Andy and Anthony talk about a few loosely related Cube topics. They kick things off with a pick from a spooky cube, reflect on some recent drafts and how different playgroups can evaluate environments drastically differently, some individual cards, and the power of novelty.
Our listener submitted pack 1, pick 1 this week comes from listener Anthony’s very spooky Horror Cube.
