If I'd been in your place, I'd have taken the Stronghold too, much more versatile. Thanks for the Cursed Scroll though, I'll make good use of it.

 

[BigBlue]

The problem with the stronghold as I see it is a ton of land destruction out there... so I hate to build too much around it... Well, that and the odds of pulling it from a deck are low too... but I saw some good utility creatures... I had been looking for a U/R build, but people above started taking cards...

Why all the Mountains? Anyone know? I hate those generators which add mountains instead of commons...

 

[DarthFerret]

The scariest thing about picking in the middle is that you are picking enough cards to kind of define your starting color(s) with very little guarantee that you will be able to keep on that same tack. Also very frustrating that I did not have first pick of my own packs (I wanted that Wrath.....Dang you Trashman). As was stated above, if I had thought that through a bit, Unlimited would not have been in my pack choice. But, c'est la vie. I am actually pretty happy with some of the picks I did get to make. Never really saw myself going that color in a draft before.

 

[Spiderman]

I agree DF. I just wasn't sure where I wanted to go. The Confiscate in Melkor's pack kinda defined it, but not sure if that's where I wanted to end up... oh well

 

[Spiderman]

On Mooseman's picks: Nice with the Slivers. It'll be interesting to see if that works.

Just a reminder to keep all discussion in this thread, so the draft thread stays as managable as possible.

And Modus, watch those signals. You don't want to make them too obvious.

[turgy22]

Not a problem. Oh, you want odds? How about 87%? I guess it depends on how busy I am at the time, but I'll try to periodically update the colors from now on, if it'll make things easier for everyone.

And thanks for starting things out.

 

[BigBlue]

(moved from draft thread to appease turgy... shoulda known better)

With each successive draft, this list is becoming more manageable...

Course, by the time it rolls around to me I don't know what'll be left... Mountains, for sure!

Colors... Hmm... Spidey & I are in the same division and appear to be going the same direction... crap...

 

[Ransac]

You're complaining about you and Spidey gunning for the same? Try being in a division where everyone is drafting green.


Ransac, cpa trash man

 

[BigBlue]

Ahhh... good point.

I have Melkor to contend w/ too, but fortunately I draft right before him.

 

[Mooseman]

Did I make my picks correctly.... 1 card from each person for another 10 cards?

 

[Spiderman]

Yep.

 

[Rakarth]

Ok, my pc has broken and I can't get on the uni pc's long enough to complete the draft. Is there a chance I can ask for a small extension on the draft time? My new pc should arrive tomorrow or Friday at the latest and tomorrow I should be able to borrow a friends in order to do this thing properly.

Pretty please

Rakarth

 

[Spiderman]

Sounds okay to me, since you posted a heads up...

 

[Ransac]

I'm cool with that.


Ransac, cpa trash man

 

[Mooseman]

Works for me...

 

[rokapoke]

It's fine by me. The sooner the better, though, because I'm itching to make my next ten mediocre picks!

 

[turgy22]

Yeah, I already PMed Rakarth and told him it was fine. The situation is obviously out of his control, so I'm cool with it.

 

[Mooseman]

It's fine by me. The sooner the better, though, because I'm itching to make my next ten mediocre picks!

I'm aspiring to have mediocre picks...... like Ransac is aspiring to be funny..... someday....
