Legacy Cube (360) — Bun Magic Cube — “Fair Magic, Maxed Out”

Origin / why this list exists
Bun Magic is a famous example of “Fair Magic” as a design goal: a low-curving, efficient environment that explores the limits of powerful gameplay without relying on degenerate fast mana to be exciting. It’s also a cube that has been discussed publicly with real drafting primers, which matters when you’re buying a list you can trust.

What’s in the list / how it plays
This cube rewards tight play. You’ll double-spell earlier, you’ll fight over tempo, and you’ll feel like your decisions matter every turn. Decks come together quickly, and sideboards/interaction actually matter because games aren’t decided solely by who drew the one broken card first.

Who it’s for

• You want high power but still want games decided by drafting + play, not “lottery cards.”

• Your group loves tempo, midrange pivots, and clean interaction.

• You want a 360 that feels premium and intentional.

Legacy Cube (450) — BunMagicInspired — “Same Philosophy, More Room”

Origin / why this list exists
This 450-card Legacy+ list is explicitly built to capture the Bun Magic vibe—efficient gameplay and strong interaction—but with more space for archetype redundancy, build-arounds, and variety.

What’s in the list / how it plays
Think of it as “Bun Magic with a pantry.” You still get the low-curve feel, but you’ll see more draft texture: more pivot points, more niche packages, and more variation across repeated drafts.

Who it’s for

• You love the Bun Magic philosophy but want more variety than 360.

• Your group drafts often and wants fresh packs while staying coherent.

• You like archetypes that have a little more breathing room.

Legacy Cube (540) — Parnell’s Cube — “Legacy+ Greatest Hits”

Origin / why this list exists
Parnell’s Cube is a widely-followed example of Unpowered Legacy+—the “best-of Magic” feeling without requiring Powered Vintage extremes. It’s the kind of list people reference because it hits a sweet spot: powerful, iconic gameplay, but still draftable and playable.

What’s in the list / how it plays
You’ll draft real decks with real game plans: proactive aggro, controlling answers, synergistic engines, and enough fixing to support ambitious builds without turning every deck into 5-color soup. It’s “the cube you can hand to smart drafters” and expect great matches.

Who it’s for

• You want high power without Power Nine defining the format.

• Your group wants “classic cube” gameplay with strong identity and depth.

• You want a 540 you can draft for years without it feeling solved.

Legacy Cube (720) — California Premiership Cube — “Big-Event Legacy+”

Origin / why this list exists
The California Premiership Cube (CPC) is an established unpowered Legacy+ 720 environment—built as a deep, singleton “event cube” with a long history behind it. Bigger cubes can get messy; CPC is known because it’s intentionally constructed to scale to 720 while staying draftable.

What’s in the list / how it plays
More archetypes, more overlap, more weird lines that only show up once in a while—in the good way. This is for groups who draft a lot and want a cube that keeps producing new decks long after a smaller list starts repeating.

Who it’s for

• Your group drafts constantly and wants maximum novelty.

• You want a cube suited to events, bigger collections, and long-term replayability.

• You enjoy seeing fringe archetypes show up naturally without forcing them.
