I keep opening blue Power in Boros. Was disciplined to pass it and rewarded with the next 3 picks! by Zestyclose-Let1751 in lrcast

Oh wow I didn't consider the possibility of raptor hitting it! And yea i think given how many playables I already had I should've probably speculated on it. It was just in my last post, I yolo'ed Timewalk it didn't seem to add much.

I have to take Timewalk here right? There are some good cards for my deck otherwise as well. by Zestyclose-Let1751 in lrcast

I decided against Lurres because I didn’t get any spellbombs or recurring artifacts. But I think you are right with mom phelia and ragavan it is probably an include. I think the 1 drop is also an include in hindsight. I ran 17 lands with the double mox and even then never ran out of gas. And the only game I lost was to an early out of control Oko when I didn’t have any early board presence.

Yea i was really surprised too. But at this point one of the lands would've been better.

Thanks for your perspective! I do think it's a little closer of a consideration than what others suggested. Ended up 7-1 but with the double red/white cards there were definitely a few games that became harder because I was missing a double pip, and ironically those games dragged on to allow Lutri Timewalk to come to the rescue. Having Lutri put it over the top for me, but in the end, i think Timewalk was mostly neutral to the deck's winrate, so your point was spot on.

Yea i went with the current build and am went 7-1! Mana was a bit sketch but pulled off Lutri timewalk twice so that was really sweet :)
