Good one!
I was waiting for some kind of shoe to drop with the augur......
I really wanted to draft the Wurmcoil, but you snagged right be fore me.
 

turgy22

Nothing Special
Haha... no. You took Evil Twin, instead. I thought the Wurmcoil was the best overall card in the draft. I was surprised when both you and Spiderman passed on it. Not that it's done me a whole lot of good this season... I think the decks overall are getting too fast for mine.

That was actually going to be in my next round of picks, but whatever I picked first (see how memorable it was?), I thought fit my deck a bit better and/or I didn't want it used against me by those players who had the same color. I guess we'll see...
 

turgy22

Nothing Special
You picked Sword of the Meek first. Definitely a good fit for your deck and, really, a good fit in any deck. I just didn't view it as having the same game-changing power as the Wurmcoil. Of course, now that the games are starting, it seems a lot better to have a bunch of small creatures that you can get out quickly than to have to wait six turns before getting a big creature in play.

Ah, yes, thank you. Yes, I was thinking that I seemed to be winning mostly by speed before everyone got out their big guns so the Sword would help with that. I guess it's kinda working, so far...
