I'm not sure about drafting a three-color format, but Tidehollow Strix looks like the best card in the pack to me. |

Resounding Thunder This kills a lot of monsters, and if you ever get to cycle it, it becomes prime removal. |

I like Wind Drakes, so Screecher for me. Not opposed to removal, though. |

Resounding Thunder This is quite a slow format and 5 colour control is incredibly powerful. This is a prime removal spell which, if you get to be 5 colours is awesome. Strix would be my second choice. CG - great choice of draft though, |

Jund Charm A lot of good cards in here. Sculptor and Fiend for the artifact deck, Paladin and Squire for the Exalted deck. Repeatable removal in the battlemage. Still, Jund rules. |

Jund Charm is probably the most powerful card here... the building blocks of other decks frightens me, however. |

Starting by picking multicolored cards is a really bold strategy. And by bold, I mean unwise. This format isn't that slow. My pick for this pack is Sigiled Paladin, wishing that we had taken the drake. |

Remember, we're drafting alara reborn 3rd pack. We are almost 100% going to be in 3 to 4 colors. I think Jund Charm is entirely playable here. |

Charm... hoping the rest of the pod fights over the rest. |

Advocating Lush Growth with the caveat that I have 0 idea how this format works. |

I seem to recall Esper being quite good, so I'll go with Glaze Fiend over sculptor, although it's pretty close between those two. |

| Post subject: | Re: Alara block draft! |
The problem with Paladin is the WW. In this format, it's hard to make a good deck going for only two colors. Oh, and did I tell you that Jund rocks? |
