Dunno about draft, but made some sealed pools and played a couple games. Aggro.

Not if you're called Blake and have Panharmonicon.

Who has two thumbs and just reached 2nd place in his first ever Sealed prerelease? This guyyyy :) ! Oh and I also cracked a Chandra, Torch of Defiance. Today is a good day.

And yeah, aggro rules (even though my only loss was to a control build). Boros in particular, which I played, is lookin’ pretty neat.

I just got 3rd of 37 with BW control (and the deck that won, my only loss, was also BW control). So control is definitely viable here.

I wasn't feeling well and was not playing tight. I had a RW deck with Fumigate, Pia Nalaar, Multiform Wonder and a few removals, energy dudes and decent vehicles. I also had Captured by the Consulate.

My white was a pretty easy pick but I could have gone U (Torrential Gearhulk) or B (slightly deeper than U, R, or R and I could have shaved some mediocre artifact creatures).

Fumigate was excellent, but I did not play it well. My deck was pretty aggro which didn't help. Generally I kept committing rather than relying on the life game to catch me up.

Still, it won me games and kept me in games I was losing. Captured by the Consolute was also not great in aggro with little air assault. I only cast it once on an Ovalchase Daredevil...but that's sort of terrible if he uses removal on it (he had Whirlermaker!).

I won match 1 easily behind fumigate. M2G1 I straight up punted when I misread a complicated boardstate late in the game, and made an attack that left me open for lethal. G2 went long and I could have maybe won to steal a draw, but I conceeded due to pay out.
M3 my opp conceeded to me because of pay out, then proceeded to grind me out (with Whirlermaker) in a long friendly game. I did ALMOST win this by topdecking artifacts with Pia on the board, but I was always a couple damage short. We didn't bother to play another game.

Probably just a coincidence, but I played 3 black decks.

So although the decks were pretty aggro, I did have multiple board stalls. I guess "sealed". The vehicles, other than the rare ones, seemed a little underwhelming. It could have just been Sky Skiff matching up badly against other fliers.

Multiform Wonder is great, although kinda bad against thopter generation, and at least once I kinda ran out of power.

Flavor Wins: I killed a Long-finned Skywhale with Skywhaler's Shot
Flavor Fails: Someone played Malfunction on my goat.
