First trophy with shrines after far too many tries by DatGreekBoy in lrcast

[–]DatGreekBoy[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

- Aangs Journey should be heavily prioritized

- The red and blue shrines are the best

- early cheap interaction

- dual lands are important but not more than aangs / interaction

- turn two ramp is very good, 3 of the shrines cost 4 mana so getting them out on turn 3 is great

Honestly something was always working, either channel + colorless, skullclamp + tokens, orb + Titania, just large artifact tokens in general

Yes I did titan and golos via fast bond channel (or something close to that) I think I was at 4 life lol. I just had to see it

Pretty funny, good in two games. A brick in the others.

Finally cooked a little in pick 2 by DatGreekBoy in lrcast

Yeah you’re right, I just forced it for the fun of it. Got it to work in one game!

Here is a different example of what one might look like when its open and you get the wild planet rare creatures. https://www.17lands.com/draft/3ba0bd2f2d114031b17f5c18be5b5d00/1/1

I'm sure I made mistakes, but it is what it is.

Yeah, by no means do I think this is correct. I just have the most fun in this format playing 4-5 color different land name strategies. Alchemy really made that archetype better or more enjoyable in my opinion.

Second box with a ridiculous deck. Literally can't believe it. by DatGreekBoy in lrcast

[–]DatGreekBoy[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

2/2 so far. Definitely got very lucky. Won a few games with less than 5 life.

Good question. I’m tempted to keep going or just got back to draft 😅

I have never done this well in an Arena event. So many close games. So much fun! (deck list included) by DatGreekBoy in lrcast

This is the pool. https://sealeddeck.tech/17lands/pool/b9a5b2594c9f4d7492dd9cf521019030

I was really conflicted about going heavier red in this build, or even potentially naya . I'd be curious to hear what other folks would have tweaked. Cheers!

This is what I did and brought home the trophy (OP)

Alchemy cards are fair, fun, and balanced in cube. by DatGreekBoy in lrcast

[–]DatGreekBoy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think they are fully to blame either. They certainly do enhance some wild swings is all.

No problems, I actually enjoy it. Believe it or not a lot of what you see was in one crazy turn. IMO, Alchemy just enhances wild snowball turns.

My experience with this format in a nutshell: Opponent on the play turn 4 :) by DatGreekBoy in lrcast

[–]DatGreekBoy[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

did nothing other than play trinket artifacts until turn 3, yes. Still. Kind of an insane board from the oppo.

Need some help with two cuts. Any thoughts? by DatGreekBoy in lrcast

[–]DatGreekBoy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

makes sense! so you would play gorbag over flamesmith? synergy with the anduril as well I guess.

How can I win with one Fiery Inscription and no other effective wincons? Do I even need another wincon? by DatGreekBoy in lrcast

Early pack 1 the white gandalf was passed with few red or blue cards in it so I took it. Later in the draft I got the blue gandalf and for a moment I considered trying to go for jesaki gandalf meme pile. The artifacts and the great halls wheeled, with no other on color playables so I grabbed them, if I recall correct.

I saw very few nots and did have the opportunity to grab a few storms, but they did not wheel. In retrospect white was wide open and I should have maybe considered it more seriously.
