My original vote was for Time to Feed but I don't think either finisher here will table so I would take Vulpine Goliath here. I prefer a 6/5 trample to a 4/4 when there are a lot of annoying flyers now that can have more than 4 toughness.

I think now is the time to grab a beater, and Scholar is better than the Fox.

Having played one mediocre and one terrible UG draft deck in this block, it's actually much harder to get finishers in JBT than with multiple theros packs.
We really must take either the Goliath or the Scholar here...

I think I want the Giant Fox here although it's very close. We have aerial formation if they have a big ground presence. Plus we can turn Goliath into a 4/4 flyer if we need to, for a lot less than 6 mana.

What does the fox say? Pick me. Vulpine all the way. Trample is very relevant. Honestly I prefer trample because it forces opponents to trade or just die. We have ample flying, and lets face it, aerial formation fox wins. Especially if he does a barrel roll. Okay I think I've stuffed enough references in this post.

Also hopefully time to feed tables.

Honetly, the evasion is not even the main sellling point of Scholar for me. Scry 2 as an EtB is very good.

I agree, the Scry 2 and flying beats the +2/+1 and trample in my opinion.

Horizon Scholar

It's uncommon, and Fox is common. This is only pick two. If we had beef, I'd take Time to Feed.

Dryad is a very good pick here.

Dryad. How annoying to pass 2 ordeals in someone elses colors.

I was so disappointed when I saw those two ordeals, but then I read down to the Dryad. Great for us.

Anyone else tempted to combo Fated Infatuation with Mnemonic Wall? Actually we have a lot of potentially game ending sorceries and instants it could recur. Plus, the top of our curve is fairly empty.
That said, the wall might wheel, but the dryad won't. I choose Dryad.

Oh yeah I forgot we drafted Infatuation. Wall will wheel for sure. If not, another one probably shows up.
