Tiny Leaders: Reborn

 Experiments in Design      Recently, I had the opportunity to head-up the Winter League in my favorite format: cube. Out of all the cubes I curate and have showcased on the server, the OG - Server Edition - felt the most appropriate. The league was a great opportunity to try to extend the circle of cube enthusiasts and dabblers on the server as well as gather additional data for curating the cube. Going in, I knew I had several points to address.     First, I had to determine the overall structure of the league. Some readers may remember the poll leading up the start of the league. As a refresher, there were two: one asked about drafting, and a second about match structure. I could have simply decided on a structure I felt made the most sense and moved forward with planning based on that, however as the saying goes "your experience may differ" and I wanted to make the league as accessible as possible. As an aside, I did find it interesting that participat...

Summary of Changes Edric, Spymaster of Trest – Removed from Watchlist Metalworker – Removed from Watchlist Underworld Breach – Removed from Watchlist Light-Paws, Emperor’s Voice – Added to Watchlist Happy new year gamers!

Games involving Light-Paws often hinge on a very narrow window of interaction. If the commander is answered immediately, the Light-Paws player usua...

  Hello everyone, It’s been quite a year in Tiny Town. 2025 brought a lot of meaningful changes, some big, some small, that reshaped how we operate, how we connect, and how Tiny Leaders: Reborn continues to grow. Committee Evolution & Structure One of the earliest changes this year happened within the Committee itself. Fishe stepped back from her role as a Core Member, and I transitioned into that seat. Around the same time, the Committee expanded with the addition of new Consultants: Esper, Adri/Urza, and Cosmerian . Not long after, Lyon also joined the Core Members, bringing that group to three, our favorite mystical number. These additions kicked off a broader effort to better define how the Committee functions. Alongside this, we formally introduced the Advisor role, which had existed informally for a while. Fishe, Olivier, and Plaguerat stepped into those seats, continuing to provide valuable experience and some long-term perspective. Another big step was the creation o...
