Flame Dragon Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 Since this section is now more active, and I just saw an epic draft vid, lets talk about drafting While I've never done one irl it seems like a lot of fun and a great test of skill. Recent draft gave me this Lands 17 Forest 4 Swamp 4 Plains 9 Creatures 14 Armored Warhorse 1 Stormfront Pegasus 1 Auramancer 1 Benalish Veteran 2 Griffen Sentinel 2 Assult Griffen 1 Brindle Boar 1 Lurking Crocodile 1 Scared Wolf 1 Stampeding Rino 1 Primeval Titan 1 Rune-Scarred Demon 1 Spells 9 Stave Off 2 Divin Favor 2 Pacifism 2 Spirit Mantle 1 Oblivion ring 1 Trollhide 1 Random black splash is random, but it gives me an amazing card. Also, this is the amazing vid.

Flame Dragon Posted August 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2011 [quote name='ArchmageCarn' timestamp='1312644912' post='5419569'] I first-picked a Primeval Titan IRL. [/quote] Very nice. Opening a mythic is always a huge bonus. Speaking of pikc order, once in an online draft in either the second or third pack I got passed an Elesh Norn, while being white. Wished that was irl, granted, don't think that would have happened there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Lightray Daedalus- Posted August 7, 2011 Report Share Posted August 7, 2011 Probably Yes...mostly when there are commons or uncommons in the pack that outclasses the rare.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Lightray Daedalus- Posted August 8, 2011 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 Oh How lovely...I was drafting Shards of Alara... I started really bad when I couldn't take on good artifacts for my Esper Deck so I tried to turn into a Grixis Deck... By the end of pack 2 I had a Half Esper/Half Grixis Deck and then...In my third pack I opened a mythic...it just closed the deal right there...XD [u][b]Wierd.dek[/b][/u] [b]Creatures[/b] 3 [url="http://magiccards.info/ala/en/176.html"]Kederekt Keeper[/url] 2 [url="http://magiccards.info/ala/en/42.html"]Etherium Sculptor[/url] 2 [url="http://magiccards.info/query?q=Deathgreeter&v=card&s=cname"]Deathgreeter[/url] 2 [url="http://magiccards.info/query?q=Thoughtcutter&v=card&s=cname"]Thoughtcutter Agent[/url] 2 [url="http://magiccards.info/ala/en/69.html"]Cunning Lethermancer[/url] 2 [url="http://magiccards.info/ala/en/62.html"]Vectis Silencers[/url] 1 [url="http://magiccards.info/ala/en/56.html"]Skill Borrower[/url] 1 [url="http://magiccards.info/ala/en/168.html"]Fire-Field Ogre[/url] [b]Spells[/b] 2 [url="http://magiccards.info/ala/en/171.html"]Grixis Charm[/url] [b]Artifacts[/b] 2 [url="http://magiccards.info/ala/en/214.html"]Grixis Obelisk[/url] 2 [url="http://magiccards.info/ala/en/218.html"]Relic of Progenitus[/url] 1 [url="http://magiccards.info/ala/en/75.html"]Executioner's Capsule[/url] 1 [url="http://magiccards.info/ala/en/37.html"]Courier's Capsule[/url] [b]Planewalkers[/b] 1 [url="http://magiccards.info/ala/en/60.html"]Tezzeret the Seeker[/url] [b]Lands[/b] 3 [url="http://magiccards.info/ala/en/224.html"]Grixis Panorama[/url] 4 Swamp 4 Mountain 5 Island =D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King of Nothing Posted August 11, 2011 Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 Griffin Sentinel (sp?) is extremely under rated. I had 3 in a draft once (actually made quite a decent G/W griffin deck) and was getting to the point where I was just doing 2 or 3 damage every turn with quite a few blockers still out and ready.
