Another FNM draft

Went in hoping not to draft Green\White... wound up drafting Green\White. Oh well.  :)

I did throw some black in as there was a slight crack for a couple good cards. The green creatures were a good curve, plenty of interaction. I also tried to get some artifacts for Revolt, which actually worked!


That was my deck... (not the greatest photo as it was for a buddy) Wound up 1st place, 3-0. Only lost one game the entire night to the Winding Constrictor/Wildly Bandar combo. Man that sucked.

Notes from drafting:

  • I wanted to be green if possible, so strong.
  • First pick was black. Ha
  • During the first pack, I tried to stay true to "pick the best card" 
  • I was shocked to see a Renegade Freighter in pack 3! I couldn't get it fast enough. 
  • During construction, I did not like the G/W combo. Felt weak, threw in B at the last moment and it worked. Had some mana fixing and drawing which helped.
  • The big beaters from G really proved to be game breaking, no one had answers. 
  • Almost always I was able to get Revolt by sacrificing an artifact. 
  • No one pulled great value from the 20 or so players who showed up. I would have thought at least one "whoa" card would have been pulled.

I honestly thought when I first played the deck, I was gonna get trounced by Red and Black decks. I never played one... and my critters were curved well, big enough, and just were good.
Who knew.

Second FNM draft, second time I won packs. (btw, no value in those. Doh!)

[update] Forgot to say that I got a Fortune's Favor FNM as a top 4 finisher. Anyone need it? :)
