Yeah, I don't even agree with my pick. I'll abstain it for now until I see some better arguments made for the other picks.
To be frank, I'm not too sure about my own pick either. This is a pretty bad pack overall, but there are still several decent choices that can all fill a role, depending on where our deck goes. This kind of pick is much easier pack 3 when we know what our deck needs. I mean, it's easy to say "our creatures already have evasion!" when we only have 2 creatures that can attack. Similarly, we don't have heroic cards yet, but that doesn't mean our final deck won't have any.
I have no idea where our deck is going yet, but I do have an idea what ur is usually about in this format and it's a pretty aggressive tempo deck, especially if we're lucky enough to get a few Flamespeaker Adept (I mean, we already have 2 voyage's end!). UG is more of a tempo deck, but I don't know if it really needs blockers. I think evasion for the green fat is more valuable.
Overall, I think aqueous form, coastline chimera, annul and even spark jolt are all valid picks. I prefer aqueous form because it has bigger potential. I think chimera may be somewhat safer, but I'm not going to be happy about our ur deck if we feel chimera plays a role in it. It may be my natural bias towards aggressive decks, but I don't feel ur control is very good in this format.
