08. Reimagining Magic Art feat. Beyond the Machina Chateau Cube

    • Games

Drew Pierce, a.k.a. Beyond the Machina, is an awesome artist and graphic designer who produces Magic-related work. He is also a cube aficionado and designer of a budget-friendly pauper cube. We discuss Drew’s affection for the madness mechanic and how he sculpts an environment around it, cycles and the New Phyrexian shrines, pack one pick one, different ways with heroic, how to value gold cards in draft, uses of auras, the origins of sagas and designing one’s own, pauper bombs, breaking board stalls, Drew’s art aesthetic, his design wit, logo design, benefits of various media, embracing error, politics in mtg art, music and film as inspiration.

Much, much love to lovis, who handled video post-production for the YouTube version of the podcast on Cultic Cube. I highly recommend watching this time, as lovis includes not only Magic cards but also loads of Drew’s artwork. Special thanks to super patrons Dylan Quern and Andrew Quist for their support!
