Other Cube Draft-able CCGs?

I have a three-row card box with each row holding about 800 cards I think. One row has my Magic:TG Kamigawa block cards we draft from. Another has EVE:TSG CCG cards we draft from (usually starter drafts) and the Magic:TG lands. The third row is empty. What are some other CCG/LCG's good for drafting from a fixed pool of cards? Needs to be good two-player. OOP/hard-to-get status doesn't bother me. I have some ideas of my own, but I'm interested in hearing others opinions.

I bet UFS would work pretty well. It died AND WAS REBORN! And died. AND WAS REBORN AGAIN! Needless to say, you can find some cheap ones out there.

Epic is great for this kind of thing.

Pokemon and VS would work just as well as magic, although they are worse games (IMHO).

AGOT CCG would work too, but would want some simple house rules (ie, reduce or ignore faction penalties). Same goes for Warhammer: Invasion.

L5R doesn't work because most cards are too narrow to be played outside of constructed decks. WoW probably wouldn't work well - the faction/class system can really mess up limited construction.

Here's the CCGs (other then MtG) I've made (or am making) draft cubes for: C-23, Star Quest, Duel Masters, Hecatomb, Epic, The Spoils, Battlestar Galactica, Vs. System, Harry Potter, Battle Spirits, Towers in Time, and Battletech.

AGOT can definitely work. LOTR TCG and Star Wars CCG both have had cubes made for them- I even have a couple of lists for the Star Wars one.

Dude, could you F:ATmail or post your Hecatomb cube list? I have no idea what to include but would love to have this. That would be bad-ass.

Call of Cthulhu might work well for this. It has seven factions and it is very easy to mix 2-3 factions to make decks, like Magic: the Gathering. It is a good two player game, we used to play a three player variant a lot. For drafting you might want to weed out the high cost cards. The game also tends to have a lot of cards that have very specific uses that wouldn't work in a general/drafted deck.

I'd recommend trying it before you buy a lot though. Individual games tend to run quite a bit longer than in Magic. It is by Eric Lang (Chaos in the Old World, A Game of Thrones CCG, Warhammer: Invasion).

I have a bunch of old Netrunner cards. A friend said that was a great game for drafting but I never tried it. Each player builds both a runner and corp deck was the idea.
