Oversoul
The Tentacled One
So after reading Turgy22's article I thought I'd see if I could find and of my old decklists. I was usually not one for writing my decklists down. But I remembered a slip of paper that would have something if it still existed. And so I searched and found deep in my collection of actual, physical Magic cards.
This marks the first time I have looked at those cards (I used an actual deck when I played Rector-Donate against Spidey and Istanbul, but that was from cards pulled from a box containing a few decks I took apart) in well over a year. So of course this led to major nostalgia.
And I thought I'd like to actually do something with those cards again. But aside from playing against myself or using this message board, I don't have any opponents. All the friends I'm still in contact with that used to play have quit. But I don't need to build decks. I can do something different.
A draft! I've never been good at drafting, but some of you are. And the rest of you need practice. So join this game. The premise is simple. It's like a normal draft, but with MY cards. These are not repacks. You don't know what set your cards will be from. You have no idea what cards you'll get. NO ONE knows what cards you'll get. I am the only one who has some idea, and I'm not telling. The only thing I'll say is that these cards will almost invariably be Prophecy or older. And they'll probably be Revised or newer. My collection is pretty scrubby. You might draft Jandor's Saddlebags. But you might draft Masticore. It's a mystery. Oh, and I won't be putting Snowfall into this draft. That's all I'm going to tell you about it.
I don't know how many rounds we'll do or whatever. We'll work that out later. It depends on how many people sign up.
If you're still reading this, you have enough time on your hands to participate.
Okay, sign up here.
