Hey all! Glad to be a new member of the CPA!
I draft about once a week usually and it seems that I always make it to the top 8. That sounds decent but whats got me bummed is that I cant get any further than that. It's been getting slowly better but all the guys I play with are ranked over 1900! What keeps me going every Friday night is that I feel that if I play someone better than I'm actually doing myself good. I'm learning what cards are a must pick over others and what to expect from across the table. I'm also learning that winning in a draft has a lot to do with the way you play the deck you've made. You need to save your removal cards (Vendetta, Thunderclap, etc) for something that really deserves them for example. I know it will be a very challenging to beat the players that I play amongst but I will be persistant until I do. What I would like from you guys are any strategies that any of you find useful, any cards that are a must pick and why, and or any comments in general about drafting. Comments on how the three sets combine would also be apprectiated. Thanks in advance.
