This was another ugly draft in which I didn’t really get a clear signal as to what colors I should be. Because of that, and some weak packs, my deck ended up quite underwhelming.
Round 1 I played against a mediocre looking White/Green deck. In the first game I fell behind early because he had a Hedge Troll and Nantuko Shaman with Thrill of the Hunt to back them up. I managed to catch up, and was about to win an ugly race when he drew Hunting Wilds to give him two more attackers and exactly lethal damage. Game 2 I had a good curve, Cancel for his Chronosavant, and finished him off with Weatherseed Totem. Game 3 was looking good until he had Kestrel for Utopia Vow and once again Thrill of the Hunt to beat me in combat.
Until tomorrow,
Rich
