Hillcomber Giant

This is worrying. No early drops again. And no good creature. Also, no Dampen Thought. But the Giants are coming, and we have the Beam, so we could do worse than the Mountainwalker.

Harvest is a good card, so is Raven's Crime, but we need critters.

If we are going then thallids is a viable deck so Pallid Mycoderm is my pick.

I think one can also make arguments for Krosan Grip and Aether Spellbomb

No reason to take Giant here with Mycoderm in the pack. I don't think the Thallids deck is good but hey, we play with what we get.

No reason to take Mycoderm with Aether Spellbomb in the pack. Spellbomb cantrips at least. Taking bad cards is throwing a pick away. I'd rather take Wom Harvest or something else terrible over the white cards. We can pick up filler creature junk later.

I'd rather focus on cutting a color that isn't white, guys. Green is still open, this pack is just dead for most everything.

I think we take Peer, hedge our bets.

That's what I said two picks ago. I'd be happy with Peer

Seekers is a wind drake.

I have a bad feeling about this deck.

Hard to say when it all went to hell. Shoulda taken the shiny commander I guess.

I think Seekers. That's a very late rebel and who knows maybe we'll get lucky.

Ugh... so we're playing WG ramp... which means all the saproling generators.

The actual correct pick is Vedalken Dismisser. This card is insanely good especially in our ramp deck. However, I'll take Skyreach Manta in the hopes we don't get stuck playing a terrible white green deck.

I like manta.

How the hell did we end up taking blinding beam in a ramp deck?

Mantra for me as we will probably end up at least 4 colours.

We took Blinding Beam as it is arguably the best common in the set (I think it's clearly the best). It doesn't matter that we are a ramp deck this can act as a 2 turn fog if you are on the defensive or make your creatures unblockable when you swing for the win.

My instinct is to go Avian and just say screw this and force rebels, since white and black look open. Since we're green though, I guess I want cloak. I feel like this is one of those times where I was hesitant to commit to a color and several people convinced me to and I still don't see why, why we're drafting green.
