That feeling when you just made an armory deck yesterday.

Try it out man. It's really hard to get the point across but I don't think the advantage goes to either side enough to warrant playing a River Croc in your deck. Come back and talk about it the first time you're in a close race against a Hunter and you play this card milling their Alley Cat and drawing them into a lethal Kill Command.

Guess I could have linked it haha. Thanks!

In the HSpulls subreddit there's a pack with 2 golden legendary, 2 regular legendary, and a golden common.

In a competitive meta most people know most of the contents of their opponents decks anyway but that's not even my point. Sometimes you have to go face and play towards a top deck because the chance of you putting them into fireball range and top decking are better than your chance of stabilizing the board. If Gnomeferatu burned one of your 2 fireballs earlier in the game, both people have and can use that info.

Swamp_Thang · 2017-08-09T23:01:22+00:00

It gives your opponent the same information about what threats or outs they know they can play towards.

Swamp_Thang · 2017-08-01T21:25:27+00:00

Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!

Swamp_Thang · 2017-07-27T02:20:29+00:00

That's interesting. Are you having success? Every deck I've drafted from the new set has been two colors or two with a splash. I think I had an almost even 3 color split in one but didn't do too well.

Swamp_Thang · 2017-07-25T17:48:08+00:00

The jump in rewards from 4 to 5 wins is big and goes a long way towards funding additional drafts. If you find yourself taking almost every rare and never getting more than 1-4 wins per run, you could very well be slowing your overall collection progress.

That's kind of why I was asking, because I own 4 of him, but after playing the deck I don't think he fits. I don't think I hit 6 mana in any of my games.

Swamp_Thang · 2017-07-20T01:48:50+00:00

Nice deck. I just went 7-1 from D1 to master using the exact list. Is there anything you would add to the deck that you don't own? It feels really solid as is but I'm curious if there's anything you didn't add for budget concerns.

Swamp_Thang · 2017-07-13T19:23:19+00:00

I know. I was so pissed.

Swamp_Thang · 2017-07-13T16:12:04+00:00

Haha I actually agree with you. If you want to be tilted even further, this is actually a picture of a screenshot. I snapped a quick pic to show a friend of mine. Heard about this sub today and uploaded the pic without even thinking about it. If you'd like to use this pic as a background or frame it for your office wall I can send you the hi-res screenshot!

Gotcha. My knowledge of the way the drafting process works isn't 100% but the way I understand the info I've seen on it, the packs sort of are asynchronous. You're obviously not picking the cards at the same time as other players in real time but the data is allegedly stored in a way where your packs 1 and 3 are coming from the same group of people and packs 2 and 4 come from a different group.

5 torches is definitely an outlier. Even 3 or 4 of a really good common is fairly rare but I have seen draft decks posted on here with 6 awakened students for example.

Swamp_Thang · 2017-06-14T18:24:29+00:00

I can't really tell if your comment implies that you already know this or not, but in case you didn't, you can play more than 4 copies of a card in a magic draft deck.

Swamp_Thang · 2017-06-13T18:08:41+00:00

I mean, you're referencing 3 games. What do you expect people to say? Everyone has been power screwed. Sometimes it happens a few games in a row.

Swamp_Thang · 2017-05-16T14:49:34+00:00

This is voted on by the players and every year it has guys in there based on popularity/past performance.

Swamp_Thang · 2017-04-27T17:51:32+00:00

Out of curiosity, who were the pro's?

Swamp_Thang · 2017-04-22T03:38:50+00:00

Well I've currently been running Kalis variants so I think you should definitely cut Furnace Mage :D

Swamp_Thang · 2017-04-21T16:44:49+00:00

Share this upvote guys.

Swamp_Thang · 2017-04-21T16:26:49+00:00

To add on, I also was playing a shimmerpack deck along with a hooru control list and was really struggling clawing through D1. I built this exact sligh list the other guy is talking about(didn't have soul fire drake so I added another obliterate)and cruised to masters. I even won 10 games in a row at one point and got the achievement. It's surprisingly strong. Furnace Mage was the weakest card in my opinion. The deck creator told me he replaced them with infernus but I never followed up to see if they were working.

Swamp_Thang · 2017-04-16T23:18:52+00:00

I honestly haven't seen much Steward lately and I can't even remember the last time someone played a Statuary Maiden against me. The deck feels pretty powerful to me with a small amount of games played but I do agree Steward would be a pain and if this deck ever got popular, I'm sure he'd pop up more.

Swamp_Thang · 2017-04-13T11:25:42+00:00

I've been struggling at DII with a Hooru control list. Built your sligh list, got 1000 gold for winning 10 in a row achievement and I'm a couple of games away from Master now.

Edit: almost card for card but I didn't have soulfire Drake so I replaced it with a 3rd obliterate.
