This is what I ended up playing.

Goblin Mountanier
Dragon Fodder
2 Elvish Visionary
Bloodthorn Taunter
Cylian Elf
Resounding Roar
Obelisk of Bant
Blightning
Gift of the Gargantuan
2 Jund Charm
Topan Ascetic
Drumhunter
Volcanic Submersion
2 Bloodpyre Elemental
Carrion Thrash
Bull Cerodon
Cavern Thoctar
Predator Dragon
Vein Drinker
Godsire
Esper Panorama
Jungle Shrine
Savage Lands
Plains
2 Swamp
5 Mountain
6 Forest

Round 1: Played against a RGW deck with a bunch of cards that I wish I had not passed. I lost game one because He had an aggressive draw with dragon fodder into Hissing Iguanar, then he removed my first couple of creatures and won. Game two I cam out the gates swinging with an Elvish Visionary into Topan Asetic into Drumhunter into Cavern Thoctar. Game Three I should have won but I was trying to get more then a two for one out of the Jund charm in my hand. Also in between games two and three I swapped a Forest for a mountain because I was having trouble casting the Predator Dragon. It ended up being my undoing because I failed to draw another forest for the Godsire in my hand.

Better luck next I hope.

  1. Yea, MTGO hates predator dragon…
    You gotta do screen shots, at least for your deck!

  2. Heya!

    Another draft, let’s see.

    Pack 1 pick 4: The Elf is okay…but I would have taken Bone splinters, since the elf is nothing more than a filler, and we can get that later.

    Pack 1 pick 8: I like both the Letou (as a filler) and blister beetle as a semi-trick here. Capsule is okay, but I havn’t found it that usefull yet.

    Pack 1 pick 10: I hate obelisks, I would have taken the Deathgreater any day.

    Pack 2 pick 6: The bloodpyre is good, but the Stinger is better. He might be one of the best commons in Shards and he gives you boardcontrol and 1 damage a turn. He’s really sick if you get a Quiteous Spike to go with him :)

    Pack 2 pick 9: I really disslike the Gustrider. Overpriced and never makes the deck. I would have taken the call to heel, since that is a possible splash/something another player might find usefull.

    Pack 3 pick 2: I think you made the right pick, since godsire is a true bomb. The only other real option would have been the Drudi…or possibly Bant charm.

    Pack 3 pick 5: I value the Blessing slightly higher, but your pick is good as well, a 50/50 I think.

    Pack 3 pick 7: I hate obelisks, and the Steward is actually a very good card that might accelerate you.

    Pack 3 pick 8: I think the Squire is better, in a stalemate he makes your single evasion guy that much harder to deal with.

    • Yea I definitely should have done this draft differently. I was trying to draft a more aggro deck and this was early in the format where I thought Grizzly Bears were key to winning. I did not have alot of experience drafting the set yet. Looking back on this draft I was way wrong with many of the picks.
