I think these ideas are too dry and don't have enough spirit of wonder. This isn't supposed to be a serious "every week" format, but a unique ~1 time event.

Isn't Santa Boros?

The original Pod thread happened way back in the Google group, in yonderyear.

Will do, but I don't have a lot of these cards currently, so I will have to decide how committed I am to the idea. Was thinking of making room for a tricolor slot.

Going to use this to try and get more PWs into the pool without increasing the # of PWs in a given draft.

I would feel like such a turd if I first picked Eidolon of Blossoms.

We should do it as a white elephant thing :p

What mechanism would you use to distribute the shards / wedges?

Sealed! (up to 4 players) Sealed Deck 1: Sealed Deck 2: Sealed Deck 3: Sealed Deck 4:

Surely there's some middle ground. Players rarely first-pick Gravecrawler itself, but will first-pick Dark Confidant or Liliana or something and end up in a Bx sacrifice deck.

Okay guys, I am reviving this concept, with an update. Now that I am doing this as an MTGO cube, it is easier than ever to generate a new list for each draft. My cube now has 360 "slots". Columns 1 and 2 define the slots a card is eligible for. Above, we have 5 Izzet spells eligible for 3...

Do we really need first picks to commit us so heavily in a direction? I'm perfectly happy to take a solid piece of removal in retail draft, knowing that I can still run it wherever the rest of the draft takes me. As long as we end up _somewhere_, do we really care for it being Pick 1? Players...

Hey guys, I was thinking of doing something special for the holiday season. Magical Christmas Land (MCL)! It's not very fleshed out yet, but the basic idea is to let players draft a Tri-Land, and that land comes with a bundle of cards from that Shard / Wedge. There would be some constraints...

That's super generous of you! Cards needed are in my current list: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Li9IvhqGz2y9WdQmS7n_E-g863Dctw4-yWdBWXCxJrI/edit#gid=0 BUT! I would probably acquire them before the draft so that we could play with the new toys.

Sign up below! 1. Jason Waddell 2. Chris: MTGO Academy 3. Aoret 4. Kirblinx 5. safra 6. Aoret's gf (probably) 7. 8. Maybe Jonas and Dom Harvey

I think you have to run cards that excite people. Some degree of power variability is good. I was super happy to have Kiora in my BFZ sealed pool, and would have had less fun playing if it were a River Boa. Infuse with the Elements was powerful in a unique way that caused me to build my pool...

100 card singleton looked like a pretty fun format. One of my old MLG colleagues used to write articles on the format on Pure MTGO.

True story, I once spitballed with Eric a RipLab competition where I would have people submit a brief description of why they thought a given card was the best designed card in history. And then I realized "I'm just going to accept the best description of Clique", and scrapped the idea.

The old "anti-goodstuff" movement from like 6-7 years ago I think did a lot of damage. Good stuff is essential. The question is, what good stuff do we run?

Just regular Dark Jeskai, I'm guessing.
