Introducing The Dynasty Cube

The Dynasty Cube is a long-form draft league that allows you to draft through the history of Magic in the format of a fantasy sports dynasty league.

At the moment, I've just finished spinning up a Discord server to host and manage the league through - if anyone is interested in being sent an invite link, please DM me!

Here are some of the finer details of how the league works:

Drafts are done in a "season" - a draft plus all matches for a given draft.

Teams are allotted a certain number of "points" to spend on the cards they draft to build their deck for the season.

Each card starts with a point value that goes up each time it is drafted or kept into another season, or loses points if it's never drafted.

After the draft, players may also make trades with other players. Card values do not change with trades, and both cards and future draft picks may be traded.

After completing a draft season, each player may designate any number of cards from their pool as "keepers". In the next draft, keepers will be automatically drafted for that team rather than being available to the other teams.

The current list includes most draft-worthy cards from Alpha through Legends.

Each season, the next chronological set/product will be added to the pool for the next draft, excluding cards that are deemed problematic to the format. If adding this set does not add a sufficient number of cards that 8 players can draft 45 cards (360 cards available worth no more than 1 point), the next set/product will also be added to the pool.
