P1P1 – Apparently I just always open and get passed the same cards especially Rares.
P1P6 – Decided to just keep it in Red rather than take Onyx Goblet here. Both cards are pretty similar in the impact they’ll have on a game except sometimes they just scoop to an early Lightning Talons.
P1P12 – I know I could take Creeper here but Deathgreeter seems like it will fit the deck better more often. As a side note I really wish I could open something that would put me into a different archetype sometime.
P2P1 – Oh. I’m sure some of you would take Connoiseur or Spray here but Overlord has won me tons of games in BR in live drafts and on the beta server.
P2P3 – Same deck every time?
P2P4 – Land for Overlord here but Blightning is really really close.
P3P1 – One time can I win a draft!?
P3P2 – Another close pick here. I went with the overall theme here and I was also kinda short on guys. I really wanted Bligtning again or even to splash Rhox Charger.

I decided not to run a Forest even though I had the Panorama to search for it since I already have four sources and Hellkite will never be a problem to cast.
Round 1 I played against GRb. Game 1 I Blister Beetled his Blood Cultist and we both played monsters for a while. Eventually he built Cavern Thoctar with Lightning Talons and I had to start chumping it. I drew Archdemon of Unx and then drew a 10th land a couple of turns later to play the Sigil I was holding and attack him for an exactly lethal 15 damage. Game 2 he played Cultist again when I had a bunch of X/1s and I was forced to sacrifice them all to Thorn-Thrash Viashino making it 8/8. It attacked on the following turn and traded for his team except my Rockslide Elemental was staring down his Algae Gharial both of which were 8/8. After a few turns of draw-go I peeled Hellkite Overlord and he had no answer. I’d like to point out that Goblin Assault was awesome for me in this match as well allowing me to do a bunch of cute things with Bone Splinters Viashino and Archdemon of Unx.
Round 2 was against GRW Power 5 or greater. Game 1 he somehow mulliganned to two on the play? I can’t imagine ever going below 3 and 4 is also probably a good time to stop if you have decent cards at all. Anyway I won this game very easily with a guy and Sigil. Game 2 his draw was nuts including a pinger which killed almost every guy I’d drawn and eventually a huge Mycoloth. Game 3 I mulled to five and still had a pretty good draw including Goblin Assault and Thorn-Thrash Viashino. As per usual I never drew a fourth land and died to fatties.
Until tomorrow…
