This is cool to watch as someone that joined magic around 2016-17. I built my first cube this year, and the difference in card choice/power is staggering! Loved to see it.
How can you cut away from Reid's cards? I absolutely love that you are showing a draft, but why cut away at least two or three times from us seeing his pick and possible picks? I don't need to see the back of Luis Scott Vargas head.
@wizardsmtg I really enjoy your videos guys, but a good amount of your videos have really low volume i have to set the volume all the way up just to hear the video. Great job on the production guys.
"Do you know who'll be drafting?" "I'm not sure, I was busy running from one place to the other" Was the Wizards R&D department in charge of this event?
This is a difficult format to follow as a beginner, especially for a cube draft. You did not give a side-reel highlight to all of the cards, esp. at start. I would also love to have these drafts in playlists with vids of them actually playing. Poor organization.
Wish they ran this back now that Magic Online is more popular (bc of Covid19) but they’re too lame to do anything that isn’t Arena. Also, Reid should have first picked the Underground Sea
Between the multiple times they focused on Reid's face rather than the packs while he was drafting and Zac and Marshall being the most horrible coverage team ever, this is pretty much unwatchable.
Magic has always had despicable tournament presentation. They're too cheap to pay the organizers (many of them are actually volunteering for free!), so literally, they get what they pay for. It's a damn shame, too. Were they to organize properly, the return would certainly be much greater than the initial investment. They've just never been willing to try, and probably never will.
Hey Wizards, make sure you do another one of these in the future. Much more interesting than usual drafts

Imagine someone who built one this year, jesus
Please do more pro cube drafts Wizards
I might be in the minority here, but I miss Zac Hill. Always liked his upbeat commentary.
Zac Hill is the Voice of Magic for me
Now, this is Magic
Watching this back 11 years later, Zac really knew his stuff and I'm shocked at how Reid chose his cards!
This has gotta be my favourite tournament of all time.
Man this shit brings back memories, really helped me build my cube
they should do this again but with better production value
agreed
Please show more drafts when you can. Sooooo interesting.
I actually really wish I could get another one of these
Why did Reid not take any fixing early on :(
Cube meta has changed a lot since then
So much! Archetypes aren’t entirely different but the cards are much better. It’s a crazy difference.
Cube meta has changed a lot since this person commented this
This looks so fun
Finkle is thinking, "I remember playing Tinker"
Yeah would love to see them play it out as well =/
Why just show Reid drafting without later showing his deck in action? Did he get thrashed or something?
Where is the card list for this cube?
thanks guys. Great job Rich and Rashad!!!
surprisingly, drafts help me learn a lot of the game
Why are these videos always so quiet, please start turning up the volume.
The commentary volume on some of these videos is so low.

I wish I could draft that cube. So awesome.
Guys... push the sound up seriously.
idk if you can help it but plz make the volume louder here on out or add subs. Keep posting drafts they are awsome.
great video, but you guys really need to work on your volume control. Most of the videos i have seen are soo quiet.
@wizardsmtg I really enjoy your videos guys, but a good amount of your videos have really low volume i have to set the volume all the way up just to hear the video.
Great job on the production guys.
way to go pall
making our self look smart and all
first time looking at it
am i supposed to get it from the first glance?
That sutcliffe glow up
Cube drafting is awesome. Just wish the camera was only on the packs and never focused on faces or from the other side of the room.
"Do you know who'll be drafting?"
"I'm not sure, I was busy running from one place to the other"

its weird but for a moment i thought this was uploaded a day after today (it's 29th of august 2013 today)
anyone knows what kind of sleeves are being used?
awesome. thanks for bringing up the cards eventually :)
Finkel was trying to build his Worlds' deck.
How many cards are in this cube? Sorry if they said it in the video, if so I missed it. Thanks
Wish they ran this back now that Magic Online is more popular (bc of Covid19) but they’re too lame to do anything that isn’t Arena.
Also, Reid should have first picked the Underground Sea
idk if you guys realized the pun but he says " stay out of blue, despise " and look at the card to the right
Awesome!
I have all volume controls maxed out, I am wearing an earplug and I can't hear one damn word.
Will the matches of this draft be uploaded on youtube?
i have to agree with you. they never have good sound quality. everything else is great though.
This is a phantom event, just like online? or do the players keep the cards after?
Have you already uploaded the matches for this draft or you are going too?
this goes 2 fast for me, do you have any videos that go slower? I'm just learning :D
Difference between regular draft and cube draft?
I apolagise but i confused draft with sealed pack, they only get the cards they picked
Lol marshall looks a bit rough
Dylan Kirkpatrick Marshall looks like creepy Rudy lmao.
@Caabooose It was a Liliana Vess not a Liliana OTDR.... Why don't you listen to what they say before criticizing them for not saying something???
do they get to keep those cards?
wheres the follow up videos?
marshall looks exhausted
VOLUME!!! PLEASE!
@25:30, they say he snags the parallax wave, but it looks to me like he took forbid.
the sound is always really soft
They gotta have a talk with there camera guy....
yea, i think it's 40k for first per pro events
Is there a rule that when you become a pro you have to constantly fiddle with your cards like a Wang?
What sleeves are they using? Are these standard ultra pro?
Yeah those are amazing cards for such terrible sleeves
:O Young marshall sutcliffe not in his suit is so cute
damn that awesome
search for "2012 Players Championship: Round 1"
Stuff like this, Magic is actually going big like poker. Thousands of dollars on the table there.
I later corrected this coment saying i had mistaken Draft with sealed pack. They only get the cards they pick
WHY ALWAYS SUCH FUCKING LOW VOLUME
this game looks wierd
how is it played??!
Do you get to keep the cards?
+TheDan Channel unfortunately not..
+TheDan Channel Probably not.
God this audio is terribly quiet...
Super fail at 6:20.
You never keep the cards in Cube. They always go back into the cardpool so that your playgroup can keep having Cube drafts. lol
Why the fuck does Marshall look like Rudy in the first few seconds.
you can on cockatrice and tappedout
Yeah they get all the cards they pull
He went 1 and 15 overall.
He was so greidy
drafts way more interested than constructed
he looks suprised in every pack
Thx for showing - but PLEASE show the DRAFT and not some random faces....
Are you sure? I don't think so. I mean balance is propably worth as much as the prize pool xD
you, at mtg, should have a better sound
Hence why you weren't at that event.
he didn't take parallax wave he took forbid
24 minutes in they forget to add in that Lillian of the dark realms can grab his scrubland, or any swamp to help lol /sigh
You don't get to keep stuff from cube... so that would be pointless
they're so stoned
Thrashed is an understatement. Thankfully he made up for it by "thrashing" the entire next year, right?
should have picked Elesh Norn
I was kidding
is easy to learn but you have to play to understand
29:30 i bet they have exalted.
Maybe if you are just learning you should watch a more beginner friendly format, cube is a little complex. try standard matches.
Between the multiple times they focused on Reid's face rather than the packs while he was drafting and Zac and Marshall being the most horrible coverage team ever, this is pretty much unwatchable.
Is just for smart people
Vizicate
unwatchable with this sound. :/
balance is a 1.50$
i was kidding XD
Markus looks dead lmao
yeah that was making me cringe as well
