A few choices. We can get Frogtosser Banneret and go deeper into Rogues, but IDK how many rogues we're getting around here.
We can get the merfolk and go WU merfolk.
Or we can get Ezuri and start getting into elves.

I think I actually like Glen Elendra Archmage the best. It doesn't help us get it into Merfolk or Rogues at all, but it's just a really good card.

I probably should mention: Rogues are something of a minority in the draft, but Wizards do have some good support cards in the Cube.

I hada Freeblade but then they started charging for it. So I got an Archmage instead.

I think it is important to note Elves is wide open. So wide. Elves is basically gaping.

I'll take the Archmage tho.

But Freeblade... I think Schoolmaster is the best bet with our merfolk anthem.

Glen Elendra Archmage doesn't have many targets to counter in this cube, so it's just a bad Wind Drake without Faerie support. Not sure if three decent Elves in pack 1 pick 4 is enough to assume that Elves is open.

Split decision, guess I'll just wait and see if anyone comes along to break the tie. If not, how do people usually settle ties in forum drafts? Never ran one myself....

I hope we can grab that Fluxmage on the wheel, but yeah, Master is the pick.

Yeah, I was actually really excited about taking the Fluxmage, until I saw the Master.

All the allies...?
Moonglove Changling seems playable or mask. Whichever is fine by me.

Kinda wish we'd gone allies now. There's been at least one ally in every pack so far, and generally at least one decent one.

I'd go for the Runebinder. Some zombies are blue, and producing 3/3+s later in the game is... relevant? IDK.
