So, gonna try my hand at running a draft so I can test out my Tribal Cube before I go build it. The major tribes are soldiers, merfolk, zombies, goblins and elves in their respective colors. Allies and slivers are also available in all five colors, and there are small subthemes of wizards and warriors as well.


Pack 1

Arm with Aether
Woodland Changeling
Tattered Drake
Goblin Electromancer
Zuran Spellcaster
Ballyrush Banneret
Cryptic Gateway
Dread Slaver
Clutch of Undeath
Sygg, River Cutthroat
Conqueror's Pledge
Puncture Blast
Veteran Armorsmith
Murasa Pyromancer
Reins of the Vinesteed

~SE++

Are we drafting for a duel or multiplayer? Puncture Blast if it's a duel, Sygg, River Cutthroat if it's multiplayer.

Edit: If 4-person multiplayer is confirmed, Sygg, River Cutthroat is a windmill slam first pick.

Right, forgot that. Draft as though people were gonna get split into 2 sets of 4 player multiplayer.

Conquerer's Pledge. The number of white Anthems in this format is insane, and boards stall pretty quickly in 4 player multiplayer.

I like Cloak and Dagger. It's an artifact that turns all our 1.5s into 2.5s, and any Rogue synergy is just a bonus.

I think Auntie's Snitch is a trap option because it encourages you to attack people early, and that is absolutely the worst thing you can do in multiplayer. It doesn't matter how much prowl recursion you pull off if everyone else gangs up on you.

Coralhelm Commander is fine. Note that it is almost never a good idea to cast it on turn 2 in multiplayer: you'll just draw removal and aggro from the other players. We play it as a surprise 6-drop 4/4 flying Merfolk lord when the chips are down.

Definitely the commander. Swinging in for 3 in the air on T3 is awesome if you get it on T2, and every time after that it should be a 4/4 flyer the turn after it comes down that anthems your merfolk.
