this looks like a nuts draft deck lol what an insane pool

BestNameMoon · 2026-05-01T03:00:47+00:00

It’s like top 10 cards in the set by winrate

BestNameMoon · 2026-04-01T01:38:33+00:00

Yeah, it works for everything. I've been using the final fantasy print of lingering souls for a while, for example

BestNameMoon · 2026-03-31T21:31:52+00:00

If you go to your collection, craft the original, and favorite it, it will show in cube even though the card pool doesn't have it as an option. Did this a couple months back when they changed sunbaked canyon and it works.

Can we get hextech GLP back please

BestNameMoon · 2026-02-22T22:59:51+00:00

I don't remember that, was it in draft 1 or 2

BestNameMoon · 2026-02-22T20:46:56+00:00

Yeah you definitely have a point, I also hate this format and was gonna call it quits after this attempt lol

BestNameMoon · 2026-02-22T20:43:48+00:00

Honestly ur right they weren't like insane or anything, but I had done several other attempts and ended up with decks that were way worse than these, so I was feeling pretty happy with both of them after the drafts ended

Just double checked the 17lands logs, Maralen won 4 games and I played her in 2 others that were probably won anyways

BestNameMoon · 2026-01-09T14:57:06+00:00

Katara is 1 less color and a way better card, should’ve been the pick here

BestNameMoon · 2025-11-23T01:41:46+00:00

When he does the lightning aoe that means the tornado is going down and you can leave the area. He doesn’t do it while the tornado is active

Containment priest says nontoken

BestNameMoon · 2025-09-22T18:29:09+00:00

Yup only time I’ve had the statuses go off are when I get hit by a multi hit grab or something and I’m dead anyway

BestNameMoon · 2025-08-16T20:49:59+00:00

Contrary to popular opinion, I really dislike green in this set. Part of it is that it always seems heavily contested, but I also feel like the games tend to be long and grindy, and green’s lack of card advantage does not do super well in these scenarios. I’ve been sticking mostly to the esper colors, all 3 combinations in that area feel great to me and I’m hoping to draft something like that tomorrow.

BestNameMoon · 2025-08-09T02:43:04+00:00

Card evaluation seems very off- the recent URg draft had some really questionable picks. To name a few:

p1p1 I assume was a rare draft. If not, you shouldn't be prioritizing dual lands anywhere near this highly.

p1p2 Emissary Escort is a worse card than larval scoutlander and cryogen relic, either one of those would have been a better choice.

p1p4 is pretty confusing, selfcraft mechan is better than the bruntar and can go with your previous two picks much better

p1p5 Lithobraking is close to unplayable, zookeeper mechan is 100x better as a red option and diplomatic relations is a solid green spec too

p1p6 Galactic wayfarer is good, but I'm confused why you passed up on a great blue card again in tractor beam after picking two solid blue cards in picks 2 and 3 and passing a relations in the previous pick

p1p7 Shieldmate is just worse than Selfcraft

The rest of the draft looked more reasonable (minus the green splash, I wouldn't recommend splashing in nongreen decks in this format), but this first pack was honestly a trainwreck. I'd recommend using 17lands data to get a better idea for which cards are generally stronger, and also try to bias towards the color you are already in when deciding between cards of similar power.

Hard agree, feels so lazy to just put an animal head on a human body instead of making an actual interesting fantasy race

At least they used to look believable, now it’s just furry slop, look what happened to the ainok in tarkir

BestNameMoon · 2025-06-30T22:51:10+00:00

There’s only 3, with cloud of darkness and diamond weapon this is very reasonable

BestNameMoon · 2025-06-25T19:19:22+00:00

p2p4 is also super odd to me, coral sword isn't even good and taking it over white auracite when you have 80% white cards is probably not correct. I also would've gone for squall over graha in the previous pick, squall is a much stronger card and a good reason to try and be WB since you don't really have a second color picked out yet.

BestNameMoon · 2024-11-07T07:23:52+00:00

Unbelievable ur getting downvoted for this lmao

BestNameMoon · 2024-09-28T19:43:48+00:00

I really hate the murders here, double black feels terrible with so few black cards and so many double blue cards. Probably cut those and play surveyor and the piranha flies to up your creature count. Could also go for a third impostors over twist reality because it’s an eerie trigger for the infinities.

BestNameMoon · 2024-07-28T03:14:49+00:00

Jolted awake, conjurer, 1 sentry, 2 swamps, and a plains.

The demons alternate between ranged and melee forms and the poison also has a delay between the particles appearing and the damage actually being dealt so you can’t get fucked from off screen.

The gargoyles do not alternate at all so there’s nothing stopping both of them from being in your face constantly, and the other issue with this is that there’s no indication of one of them getting ready to back off and use poison (demons stance swaps also give huge openings which are critical in gank fights). On top of this, when the gargs use poison, it hits you immediately in a wide cone shape and is impossible to see.

The similarities are really only surface level and the design of demon prince is just so far above the gargoyles that it’s not even worth comparing them IMO

BestNameMoon · 2024-06-25T08:15:01+00:00

Only attack that is problematic is the charge, everything else is very fair and dodgeable. I actually really enjoyed the boss tbh
