Welcome to the 42nd episode of Cuberviews, a podcast where I sit down with friends to explore the world of Magic: The Gathering cube design! Today I am excited to be joined by Zach Barash to discuss The Cascade Cube, a rules modification cube where each player starts with an emblem that gives the first spell they cast each turn cascade. On todays episode we discuss topics such as the inspiration behind the cube, how cascade changes card evaluation, what archetypes thrive in this environment, the role of free spells, and much more. Enjoy the conversation and stay tuned for more insights into the world of cube design in future episodes of Cuberviews!
