What exactly is a cube? I see a lot of lists but it just looks like a collection. What is a cube for?

A cube is a collection of cards used to draft with. Most cubes are powered and have some crazy expensive cards in them. Most have all of the best cards printed in a single color. If you ever get the opportunity to cube draft you should do it. It's really fun. Hope that answers your question.

Yeah, you can draft or play sealed with a Cube. Play experience will depend on how well the designer understands archetypes and makes appropriate selections. I run a Peasant (common/uncommon only) Cube that is very similar to Klug's and it is really well balanced. My buddies and I draft it about once a month, tons of fun when we do!

I recommend investing in a Cube, I haven't regretted it for a minute.

I've had one for 4 or 5 years now and its constantly changing with new sets coming out to add/remove cards.

I keep a list up to date on google docs

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AlHIOoL0opWbdEVvM3dpQXFVYXZDSGlWbGlXNEM4NHc&hl=en#gid=0

We end up playing at least once a week with it.

The best Magic format.

You draft from a box (the cube) that contains the best magic cards ever made...
