Pick 2: I could’ve gambled a little more on Green and picked Jagged-Scar
Archers, and if I could rewind I would do it.
Pick 31: I had few Kithkin and I wasn’t guaranteed to play them all, and I
don’t like to play with vanilla bears especially when they cost WW, so
Wizened Cenn was dismissed. I think Fertile Ground was very important in this
deck, and I could not imagine the picks to come. As the deck turned out,
I’m quite happy I picked it here.
It’s one of the worst decks I’ve ever drafted, and it’s certainly the one I
would be most sad if I had to play three rounds with it.
I think Briarhorn is the right pick Pick 1, but after that I don’t see how things
could’ve ended that much differently. Looking at the big picture, maybe
Merfolk? But it didn’t seem good at the time.
Round 1 I played versus Blue/White Merfolks.
I mana flooded big time both games. Yet, with all that mana, I did not have a
Blue to play Mulldrifter.
The matchup was impossible to win, so at least the “loss to mana
flood” hapened in a match where I could not win even with good draws.
Green/White has absolutely no chance of beating Merfolk.
See you tomorrow!
