You know, I was thinking the same thing.

Thanks!

It was my first try, so it isn't as lovely as I wanted it to be, but it turned out pretty swell.

If we can start one up tonight around 9:30-10pm EST, I'm in. Work at 9am, but I can deal with less sleep to draft, especially since I'm missing the M13 Prerelease this weekend

AGar · Post Post #832 (ISO) » Thu Jul 05, 2012 8:52 am

My work week restarts this week so I'm out.

Sudo_Nym · Post Post #833 (ISO) » Thu Jul 05, 2012 9:51 am

I could in for that.

I'm doing one right now. /out for later.

And there's Untrod seen off

Made the plunge. Just bought playsets of every common/uncommon in ISD/DKA/AVR. Going to hand pick rares and go off and running into the world of paper magic again

Congrats! That's the best way to do it. It even works in MTGO.

Anyone going to the midnight pre-release of M13? And/or Saturday/Sunday pre-releases?

Untrod Tripod · Post Post #839 (ISO) » Fri Jul 06, 2012 8:25 am

won an 8-4. Bonfire too stronk.

InflatablePie · Post Post #840 (ISO) » Fri Jul 06, 2012 5:43 pm

Won a draft tonight with UW. p1p1 raven, p1p2 seraph, p1p3 into the void. p2 had a Herald, Eman-Angel and another Seraph, and p3p2 (yes, pick 2) was an Avacyn.

That paid for my draft, and the prizes paid for my Sunday prerelease costs. Woo!

hey guys, it's really hard to beat double druids familiar

that is all

Sudo_Nym · Post Post #842 (ISO) » Fri Jul 06, 2012 7:01 pm

I also found it really hard to beat double Latch Seeker + Lifelink soulbonder.

Shadow1psc · Post Post #843 (ISO) » Fri Jul 06, 2012 7:12 pm

I think Latch Seeker is underrated in Avacyn draft. In U/G soulbond or U/W it can get in against a lot of decks with few answers. Great card.

Sudo_Nym · Post Post #844 (ISO) » Fri Jul 06, 2012 7:14 pm

Elguad Shieldmate is another underrated one, I think. Evasive creatures are already hard to deal with, and Hexproof removes a lot of answers. There were a couple of times I had Righteous Blow in hand and still died to Latch Seeker because of Hexproof.

ISO · Post Post #845 (ISO) » Fri Jul 06, 2012 8:00 pm

its not hard to imagine passing avacyn... You make it sound like it should never be done, but I think it should be done like at least half the time.

for a foil cathar's

I'd take the Avacyn personally

the one time I got to play Avacyn (had access to her two other times with enough mana, but won before I could play her), bonded her to a Shieldmate just to be almost perfectly safe

chesskid3 · Post Post #847 (ISO) » Fri Jul 06, 2012 9:59 pm

I just drafted Avacyn.

Not a bad deck all in all. U/R agro. Win in 6 or not at all ftw

Especially pack 3, that's really not all that unsurprising.

Elgaud underrated? I don't think anyone says it's a bad card, but it's not a bomb.

Latch Seeker gives me nightmares in Limited.

I think Elgaud's strength is that it provides a lot of protection in the decks that want it. Like, in an aggro deck, you don't really want Elgaud unless you've got Lumberknot. But in UW, Elgaud's ability to make an angel bounceproof can seal games.
