That's actually solid reasoning.

Correction, in constructed the second copy is a Forked Bolt :)

Yeah, I believe it was confirmed somewhere a while ago that the third set on Ravnica would not be about its guilds. I do wonder how Rakdos is against Bolas, but Domri Rade is with him? I would have expected that to be the reverse. Though of course, if Bolas promises destruction, wouldn't both...

Yeah, pretty cool!

No idea what's up there, but your post is broken!

I think that would be the combination without blue actually, incidentally the only one you didn't list :)

Sweet work Aston! That already looks so much more polished than the first video! You're still switching sides after the draft though ;) You also sneakily gloss over the second Birthing Pod that appears, that might take people off guard. All in all, quality content, and I could follow the action...

Oh alright, I'll admit I'm not going to test the 3/7. Still though, that flavor text is such a big win. I don't mind them printing vanilla creatures like that :) I do think there's a few additional vanillas that I could see myself running, depending on the environment. Expedition Envoy...

Have you read the flavor text though? It's strong! :D

In fact, let's see what cards I want to test out. Hero of Precinct One Benthic Biomancer Pteramander Slimebind Catacomb Crocodile Drill Bit Orzhov Enforcer Priest of Forgotten Gods Undercity Scavenger Electrodominance Immolation Shaman Light Up the Stage Incubation Druid Trollbred Guardian...

Yeah, I'm eyeing that one as well. Seems super, super sweet!

Drafted astraedm's. I m'emrakul-ed p1p1, into Search for Tomorrow over elves, because "delirium". Ravenous Chupacabra or Walking Ballista is an interesting p3, but since I seem to be interested in ramping and diversifying card types, it's got to be the Ballista. P4 Eternal Witness sounds great...

For those wondering why Mystic Speculation is in the 3 cmc column; it's a custom (Reevaluate) that costs {2}{u} and does Mystic Speculation + investigate, but instead of buyback it returns to your hand at the beginning of your upkeep like old Squee does. Also, Guttersnipe is a custom as well...

Here, I did another one! First picked Demonic Tutor, picked up Winding Constrictor soon after, ended up with only two creatures that use +1/+1 counters, but it's still worth it I feel. Accidentally left in the Hardened Scales on CT, but that should definitely be a Martial Coup, which lets me...

That fills my heart with gladness! :D I'm guessing you don't have a paid account on CubeTutor then? That would allow you to upload custom scans, but it does cost you $5 a month. I run enough customs that I'm very happy with the option, but I can imagine it's a bit much if all you have is Swords...

Did a bonus draft of Aston's. This cube is much higher power than I'm used to, playing cards I consciously cut from my own cube over the years in order to achieve a more even power band. I find it kinda hard to navigate. So, let's do it again! P1p1 Birthing Pod, doing it! Then Metamorph...

Drafted Aston's. See Sword of Fire and Ice pack one and automatically think "Ugh." to myself. I once lost a really shitty Modern Masters draft to that card, simply because I happened to be blue red, so I've turned pretty sour on the Swords. Those are my personal feelings towards the card though...

Meren is really good in sacrifice decks, but from experience (ha!) she can be super oppressive in a deck that has multiple ways to recur her.

Order! That Vengevine won't return to the battlefield if you discard those cards like this :) That's a ridiculously good turn 3 though. Attacking for 12 on turn 3? Eesh!

Drafted Rowan's! P1p1 was one of my favorite cards ever: Rise from the Tides. With the win condition determined, all I needed was to pick up spells, but I got distracted by a p1p3 Tatyova, Benthic Druid. But then I thought, ramp spells are spells too! And then I picked up a Courser of Kruphix...
