I would consider Lightning over 2nd pacifism if it was an instant. But pacifism.

God I hope we open a wincon, because there isn't anything to kill people with in white at common that is a serious threat except an angel and a matchup where its relevant.

Pacifism.

Pacifism.

Green and Black the only colors with real creatures.

Pacifism is basically the only card in white in this draft format.

Nantuko Husk is a pretty awesome card, too. But I like red, and I like Jagged Lightning. More than Pacifism.

I'm sticking with pacifism here. I don't really want to pick a white card then pick a double red card. Let's stay white and stay open.

No idea. Greater good looks nice, but in Limited, the only time you want to sac a 4+ power critter is in response to removal. And there are not many of such critters around anyway. And the Reaver hits you for four any time it's chump blocked.

Bull Hippo

I want to take the Wild Dogs here, but I like the Looming Shade too.
I just think a 2/1 for

is too good to pass up.

Wild Dogs.

I'd rather have the Bull Hippo, I think.

Bull hippo. I think with secondary white we might be too slow to dodge drawbacks.

the custodian is one of whites better commons. Let's cut white.

Hill Giant is always solid, and this one has a randomly awesome upside, but Custodian looks very good and cutting White might be a good plan.

Custodian.

taking a terrible 1/2 for 3 is not cutting white, it's taking a card we actively hope someone else will play.
