This draft is from the Top 8 of a 4x prize Coldsnap Release event. The tournament number is 807013, so go check out the replays. My username is Battlefield Medic. I was surprised at how well this draft went. Nobody seemed to like Green so I got lots of great stuff for the first and third packs. Not the second pack, because of how much Green I had to pass in pack 1. Don’t worry that I’m only posting the drafts that I win… there are some real doozies that I lose on the way.

Until tomorrow,

Rich
