MagicCon: Las Vegas Cube

MagicCon: Las Vegas Cube

Pastimes Events is excited to bring you the MagicCon: Las Vegas Cube.

Thanks to Alex Hurley who worked hard to put this together and stuff as many little references, puns and themes in to celebrate the “Entertainment Capital of the World!”

The 15 card boosters are built so that every pack will have a multicolored land. The typical “Rare” slot is full of synergy cards and bomb spells. The “Uncommon” slots contain all the multicolored cards and the rest are randomly distributed among the “Common” slots. 

Color Pairings Primer

Area 51 (White)

The truth is out there - We’re sure of it. Can you fight your way to the truth and investigate the mysteries out there? Don’t fear the abduction! Strive to identify the flying objects in the sky… before they take you away

Loan Office (Blue)

We’ve got an offer you can’t refuse, in fact - quite a few. You’ve got some tools at your disposal as well; can you manipulate your own fate and get out with the deal best for you?

Pit Bosses (Black)

Let’s play a game! Do your best, the terms might not be exactly what they seem. You may end up sacrificing more than you intended and losing more than you thought.

Games of Chance (Red)

Step right up! Win a prize! Not just one prize. Keep going, press your luck! You can win more, and more, until maybe you lose it all.

Lush Desert Life (Green)

Vegas has a life all its own, and the sand dunes and rodents remember.  Nothing stays buried for long.

Sightseeing (Colorless)

All the sights and sounds that Vegas has to offer! See it all, so much to do and see. Maybe we can uncover some of the more interesting mysteries of this old city. So much history, so many mysteries.

Always a Winner (Azorius)

Brag about your Revelations as the Master of miracles.

Just one more Question - Dimir

Always be asking the questions and tormenting your opponents with endless choices.

Put on a show! (Rakdos)

Set the scene, Light up the stage, pull the strings, and create a show stopping performance with a theater full of horrors.

Chaos for all (Gruul)

Master your luck by embracing the random. And with a little talent you can start doubling your winnings. 

What was yours is mine (Orzhov)

All that glitters can be gold. Extort your opponent and count every penny you’re owed as a small step towards victory until you can entreat the heavens or parley the damned for an overwhelming board presence.

City Celebration (Selesnya)

Join the dance, see a show, sing a song and trash the town by going wide with tokens

What are the chances (Izzet)

“Play” the odds by tilting them in your favor. Extra chances are rare to come by but applying them to your rolls and flips can sway chances in your favor. Who needs luck when you can brute force heads with ten flips. Maybe you’ll win out with a legendary thumb. Maybe you’ll be demolished in a blaze of fireworks and glory.

Rodent Infestation (Golgari)

Squirrels and rats and squirrels and rats and squirrels. Create an endless fodder of rodents that can quickly spell doom for your opponent, chittering included.

Gold Rush (Boros)

There’s not a moment to spare, if you don’t get there first how will you get your fair share? Give your opponent FOMO of not being able to play the game by rushing them down.

CUBE THEMES

Themes across all colors, rooms, “or” (Fact or Fiction), Song/Dancing/partying, Fear cycle and Enduring cycle

The Sights, Sounds and Smells

Taking time to smell the roses sure, but take some time to see the sights. Eat all the food and even the landmarks are breathtaking, from Spheres and Pyramids and all the lights in between. Sometimes a short stop can reap huge rewards, and sometimes a location is a real tourist trap!

The City and The People

This town is full of characters. Some are all show, and some are all tell. Most are here to have a good time. Can you muster up a party and take this City by storm?

The Chances

You may want the odds to ever be in your favor, but the best way to guarantee it is to take them into your own hands. There’s no testing of luck if you’ve already bent the chances to your favor.  You really have to make heads or tails of the situations.

The Consequences

If you can’t win big you might be losing big. We hope you set aside some of your winnings to pay back the people that helped get you here.  Sometimes the choices you make can really be damned. Sometimes you can choose to turn someone else’s biggest downfall into your biggest windfall.

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas

Everything is on the line. Someone is out to get you. It all comes down to this. Have you got what it takes to survive the City of Sin?
