Cube League is the premier Pokémon TCG Cube Draft tournament! All events are completely free and contribute to an invitation to the (roughly) biannual Champion’s Cube, a live streamed, invite-only Cube event with a significant cash prize pool!

This month’s event will feature Finnimation's Ex-Standard Cube, a Ultra High Power Cube featuring a lot of Gen 7 Pokémon! List and visual can be found here: https://cubekoga.net/Cube/ExStandard

You must join the Pokémon TCG Cube Draft Discord server to find the entry code and participate in this event.

To accommodate different schedules, there will be four different draft times:

  • one at 12pm CDT Friday, December 1st,
  • one each at 12pm and 6pm CDT on Saturday, December 2nd,
  • and one at 6pm CDT on Sunday, December 3rd

Players who have successfully joined the Discord server and signed up for the tournament are assumed to be registered for the 12PM Saturday pod by default. To sign up for any alternative timeslot, please register for the tournament here on Limitless, then react to the associated announcement in #announcements in the Discord. If you miss the 12PM Saturday draft time, you are still eligible to draft in the evening slot or Sunday slots, but anyone who misses all slots will be ineligible to draft and play in the event. Timeslots may also be removed due to insufficient demand.

The draft will be conducted with a Google Sheets automated drafter created by the Cube League Admin team, and all matches are played in Untap.in. Both platforms are free and easy to use, and they do not require you to own any cards digitally or physically.

Tournament Rules

  • You must be in the General Voice Channel in the Discord server at or before your desired draft time. From there, a headcount will be taken and people will be divided into pods. If you are not present at that time, you may be dropped from the event.

  • This event is played in the Cube Draft format. Participants draft their decks in pods of 6 to 8 from a predetermined pool of cards shuffled into randomized packs. Pod sizes are determined the day of the event, and they will all be the same size so as not to grant any advantage to smaller pods.

  • After the draft, players build their decks from their draft pool and submit their list visuals to the cube’s page in CubeKoga.net. Decklists are due 6 hours after the start of the final pod, at midnight on Sunday into Monday. Lists must be created in the respective event page, and they will automatically become public at round 1 start. If your list is not submitted by the deadline, you may be disqualified from the event.

  • Each round will have a 5-day match timer. If all matches are completed early, the round will advance accordingly. The results of any incomplete matches at the deadline will be determined by the Cube League Admins based on player communication and availability. If neither player communicates or both players are equally at fault, a double match loss will be given.

  • All Swiss and Top Cut Matches are Best of Three.

Prizing

Top finishers for this event will receive Cube Points. Cube Points contribute toward qualification for Champion’s Cube, a cash-prize event, and placement on the Cube Point Ranking Leaderboard. Cube Points will be awarded as follows:
