Bitterblossom! Nothing pulls me into black sac aggro more than this card and Bob.

Rancor is probably the strongest card in my cube, therefore it has to be the strongest card in everyone else's cube too.
So I take that.

It's completely dependent on the RNG of the cube shuffle- probably just me but I'm cursed with having a third+ of my deck in a single pack. I'll be UR spells, and then pack 2 pick 2 will be something like
And the rest of the packs will be basically dead.
Probably a mild exaggeration but I swear this shit happens to me the majority of my drafts, no matter how hard I shuffle or what archetype I am.
I'd take Sower of Temptation; I'm crazy about that card, and it'd practically always awesome.
Wow, interesting pack. I like Ancestral Vision the most in terms of raw power level, but I'd be miiiiighty tempted to snag the Blood Artist and hope to wheel one of Gravecrawler, Murderous Redcap, Innocent Blood, or Rakdos Cackler (in that order).

Kiora, wheel Abzan Beastmaster. Draw cards off your 9/9 Krakens yo!
The power level just dropped guys

Interesting. Though I'll admit I'm running quite a few of those cards
I think in the dark I'm taking Keiga? I think there's a higher ceiling on Blasting Station, but if you say the power level has indeed dropped, I'm less inclined to think it's a better pick if I'm chaining off Reassembling Skeleton as my recursive creature of choice instead of gravecrawlers/bloodghasts.

Yeah, I feel bad for making a 'boring' pick, but Wayfarer's Bauble is the safe choice that I'd probably go with. Especially knowing that multicolour is heavily supported in Onder's list!

I'm happy taking Spear of Heliod here, maybe evolutionary leap if I'm not looking to be the beatdown.

I think I would take Elite Scaleguard. That thing is such a beast, and there are multiple cards that synergize well with it. It even has 2 power for Reveillark!
No one else posting a pack? I'm going to post another pack myself if you don't do something!

Probably Archangel, though I'm a bit worried going in on an archetype 5 drop this early. It's probably better enough than one of the cards that keeps me open like map, scalding tarn or tribal flames that I'm willing to do it.

Archangel is a bomb. I don't see how you take anything else here.

Yeah, I gotta pick Archangel here. Furnace Celebration looks good in this list, but I think overall its low power enough that I just want to take the OP angel.

I pulled a pack that didn't have any custom text to keep this simple.

I try, but it's basically fruitless
I think I'm on tombstalker here. A lot of these cards seem like cards I'd wheel for being in a strategy, rather than cards that pull me into a strategy.
Is diabolic Edict even good?
I think Nissa, Vastwood Seer and Outpost Siege are what I'd be eyeing, as they're both generically strong cards that get better when slotted into specific archetypes. Repeal, Seal of Fire, and Diabolic Edict are all fine removal spells that go into any deck, but aren't exciting enough to warrant a first pick.
