During this episode Stu and Anthony discuss the Old Gnaw Bone Method coined by D.R. Wilsey our regional Dragonologist. Team Uber Bear uses the methodology to categorize and evaluate the attributes of dragons in cube as well as to decide their inclusion.
 
 Using the Old Gnaw Bones Method to gauge the power of a dragon.

1. Is the dragon impactful when it enters the board?

2. Does the cost translate to the effect provided?

3. Win more versus needed?
 
4.  Finisher?

5. Environment dependent- Old Gnaw Bones can be exceptionally powerful in lower powered environments.

6. What archetypes does the dragons chosen support?

7. EDH Brain versus Cube Brain.

During this episode Anthony and Stu are joined by special guest Jordan Eckenrode aka the MTGCubeTuber as we discuss "Armies in a Can." Armies in a Can also known as the go wide strategy consist of specialized creatures that typically generate tokens and if left unchecked will quickly take over a game. The team breaks down each creature included in the discussion by trigger allowing both curators and drafters alike to parse and view their choices at a much more granular level. 
Next we launched the Uber Cube Clinic- The One Drop Cube, where Stu, and Anthony reviewed and suggested changes to Jordan's cube.
