Got to 5 wins, then I lost to a couple red decks on the draw that I could have stabilized against on the play. A little disappointed it didn't go the full 7, but that's because it was fun and I didn't want to stop playing it.

Okay, this is pretty neat. Mirari's Wake into Finale of Glory for X=10 is something you should experience at least once. I like how the token and enchantress themes overlap here. It's got me thinking about retooling my Selesnya section.

Man, I must be doing something wrong. When we had the sealed cube I didn't go have a run with less than 6 wins. This time I've only had one 7-2 run and the rest have been in the 2-4 win range. I wonder if it's because I keep trying to draft it like my cube, instead of building generic value...

That looks a lot like the first deck I drafted, which was a pure UB heavy control deck with Lili and Sharknado. It only ended up going 2-3. I stomped any midrange or aggro deck I faced, but I kept losing to UGx ramp decks which went over the top hard. The big mana top end in this cube is...

It's up? I thought it wasn't out until the 21st. Brb, spending all my gold.

I ran Night of Souls' Betrayal for a while, and it did some sneaky work.

I will say that this set is pretty stacked for black 3 drops, though:

Well, a 3/1 for 3 ain't nuthin' to write home about, but a zombie knight is always relevant to my interests. I dunno, though. I ran Caller of the Claw for a while and holding up 3 mana every turn for when combat went south was always pretty awkward. Black does have a lot more sac outlets...

What do we think of this guy? Benalish Marshal I've got him an Chainwhirler in for a bit of devotion and monocolor incentive. He's also a pretty tasty hit off of Winota to suddenly make combat math very awkward. Plus Knight synergies!

I still like Kiora, Behemoth Beckoner, but maybe that's because I just like the character because I played her deck a ton in DotP 2013 when I was getting back into Magic in a serious way.

This is cool. Expands the UR draw 2 theme into green a little. Plus I'm just a massive mark for any Mirage callbacks.

Meanwhile... "See the Truth" Sorcery Look at the top three cards of your library. Put one of those cards into your hand, and the rest on the bottom of your library in a random order. If you cast this spell from anywhere besides your hand, instead put all three cards into your hand. This...

This thing doesn't have any haste or an ETB. It's just a big dumb green Baneslayer if you're into that sort of thing. Green doesn't get many Baneslayers, most of its premier cards are Mulldrifters. I'm not sure green really wants a Baneslayer, but it might be worth testing.

Find // Finality vs Casualties of War I like the modal nature of Find//Finality, but the 5 for 1 blowout potential of casualties also makes for a nice ramp incentive for rock decks.

Human Warrior Discard a card: Tap ~. It gains indestructible until end of turn. There's a lot to like here. Baseline it's a sweet aggro creature with a threat of activation effect, which I always like. Then there's the obvious discard synergies with madness and reanimator, and it's a human and...

Their clothes look like they're in the Tolarian Academy. I'm gonna guess Karn put it up as a memorial or something.

Primal Might is nice. I like that the absolute floor is Prey Upon which is a card I have run at one point or another. It's a nice green fireball to put your Nissa or Mirari's Wake mana into.

Yes.... autocorrect...... (Please ignore that I'm typing on PC....)

If you can run Baneslayer safely, you can run Archangel of Thune. They're roughly comparable.

And why yes, I would like to staple a Lawnmower Elves and an Elvish Visionary together. How did you know?
