I despise UB with a passion but goddammit this set is a blast to play for draft

It even has seven vocals in its name

1. Ramp/Selfmill/playing cards from grave (flashback variants eg)/Selfmill 2. 3/5/8/7 I really don't like zimone but I dislike landfall in general. Looks decent as a payoff. Wood Sage is a strong enabler and sometimes hits something which is cool but I'm not super excited about multicolored...

Idk I'd say so far this isn't an obvious roots build. So far you only have chatterstorm, a card I'm not exactly excited to play in a selfmill/gy deck. On the other hand, there are earthcraft and altar, two cards that love tokens, and you only have crab so far as selfmill. Do you know what else...

Landscapes are my go to lands for lower/peasant power level with a slightly higher retail limited power level in mind. I just love them.

I can second chain reaction, blasphemous act, slice and dice, starstorm and crater hellion Hour of devastation and breath of darigaaz also look fine to me. Having a real wrath cost 5 is a good measure for lower powered cubes I believe, although I see a lot of cards posted here recently that...

Off the top of my head I'd choose INN, MH1, MH2, NEO, FND but I do ignore most of the rares and mythics. I also think that BLB, MID, DMU, BRO, MKM, DOM, OTJ, SNC, WOE, MOM, AFR (+commander) and MH3 were great for lower power/peasant power level. Also M19/20/21 era. Best old sets are INV and APC.

Containment Construct, if there is enough discard this card looks pretty appealing to me. Since there seems to be a lot of cycling in the cube I'd pick that, especially since it's colorless. Untapped duals are also always worth a pick, even this early. Mind Funeral for selfmill also looks...

Personally, I like the patrician. It was actually playable in triple innistrad, a life swing of 6 each of your turns is actually quite good in a format where games often are a tight race. If you do have a lot of 1/1 tokens or pingers this card gets unplayable, though.

While I agree on your concerns with virtual gold cards (and it's something that doesn't get mentioned often enough) I find guttersnipe to be a bad example. RW and RG often are aggressive decks utilizing cheap removal or pump spells, and while a bear for 3 isn't impressive, a bear that is able to...

That's a tight one @henkdetenk I have a soft spot for the broker and also like sandblast and mulch but for me it's bishop or arcane sanctum. I like value through attacking on a nice body, costing 5 makes the card very reasonable for lower powered lists since you also need something in your gy...

I did not want to state that order is on par with shredder for me, I just like them both. This is a thread about p1p1 so I should have made it more clear lol Just wanted to say that I like the black cards in that pack. I see the flaw in my logic about not getting any black cards, but I like...

Lots of black in that pack so I'm not picking any of these as it would be very likely to not see a lot of black cards in pack 2, although I like shredder and order a lot and even the knight feels good to pick for me. Loch Dragon is very color intense but it looks like it could be a good...

opposition is a very silly card personally I'd just go with ftk because I hate opposition and ftk fits my preferred playstyle better. Edit: jackal pup might be a bad signal though and there is no other blue card in the pack. Opposition feels right, I'd still go with the kavu lol

Since it's just an updated innistrad set cube the power level could actually be fitting. As cheap morbid enablers in the common slot there are Prey Upon, Bone Splinters, Dead Weight and either Altar's Reap or Village Rites as well as a free outlet in Bloodflow Connoisseur. Hopefully that's...
