So I noticed that there were a couple of issues when I was watching Aston VOD (thanks for putting them up, they were a solid watch). Aston forgot to export his wishlist before he traded, therefore there was no indication of what he took (other than 29 cards + the two missed later on). Did this...

Man, it was a great card. Simple, elegant and full of play. Everyone else has sung praises already, so I won't go on. I feel a little sad now, as I voted for Stoneforge Foundry (Both times) as it is the card that excited me the most. This is coming from a guy that picks Jor Kadeen waaaayyy...

Harsh Justice That was going to be what I was going to suggest the name to be, completely forgetting that it already existed. Even then, if you used that name with that art people could still get offended? I think the art is the main problem, I think the only way that wizards got away with it...

I thought about this, and that was going to be my solution if we decided to go that way. The way we have set it up is that Grillo and Myself only play each other once. This is because when the other two are doing their grid draft one of us has to be there to give them the cards. The fact that...

I had a rather large writeup and I lost it all. :( I don't really want to do it all again so here is a smaller version of what I had taken 20 minutes to write before... I decided to go in blind and draft your cube. Here was the first pack I was greeted with: First point was, what is...

I think most of those were a given. US is a rather large place though, could have specified the coast at least. I am guessing Melty's from Finland, but I am just as in the dark as you on that one :P I can't believe with only 4 players it is almost a World Series event. That is some cultural...

A couple of options: Use a second copy of the card in the BLB in a clear sleeve to flip. Print a proxy and put it in (you own the card, it should be fine) Pimp out your checklist card. I go with option 3. Everyone loves my Jace checklist card.

So it looks like we have 4 people who are keen. I'm not going to assume that this will be the lineup for the league, so anyone else who is interested can still post. For prize support, I was going to suggest that 2nd place gets their entry back and the winner gets everything else. So how about...

We came up with this idea to enable some competition on Riptide(prize support, however minor, gives something for people to work towards). The grid drafts are great fun, just trying to promote people to play them is the hard part. People seem to be keen for normal 8-man drafts, just getting to...

To be honest it is a little sad to see a Penny Grid Draft that doesn't have my name on it. This should be some good experience for you too Grillo, since I don't think you have hosted a draft before :P

Yeah, I went a bit off the rail with Tidehollow sculler there. I don't know why I put it in there when I didn't put in Banisher Priest, I guess I just thought my list was a little light? It is more Thalia-esque in hindering removal with that two power instead of something like Brain Maggot...

I don't know if Mnemonic Wall is what Laz is after as a 'defensive card'. While it is technically a defensive card (it does have the word defender in its text box), what Laz it looking for is cards that can stave off the early attacks (to which I am assuming turns 1-4). Then you get to the point...

Yeah, there were some points in the draft I question what you were taking. Having those two sweepers early scared me a lot, and I like to think I nudged you down the token line to make you not use them. Then tried to keep picking things that give me a decent midrange punch (I kept complaining...

Also, after watching my draft video (I have no idea why I am watching my own video, and worse, enjoying it). I noticed that the Mulldrifter curse has been lifted! I love you drifty. Don't ever leave me.

The final grid draft in you 'league' so to speak and the first grid draft where I had my recording setup. It was an interesting draft. I seemed to be in 'Safra Cube' mode and kept picking high powered things with decent fixing rather than a cohesive gameplan. Here is the deck I ended up...

So I wanted to listen to your discussion, but didn't want to do it sitting at a computer for 2 hours. So I spent waaaaayyyy too much time trying to convert it to an mp3 file (which ended up successful). I also amped up the volume, as it was really quiet. I am sure there are others here that...

So I checked out my recordings and they weren't as bad as I was expecting them to be. Also, I hadn't changed my setup for the now monitor so the resolution when I uploaded to youtube was pretty blurry. As long as you don't want to read the tiny card text it is fine. But other than that if you...
