That wasn't much of a commitment.

I feel like at some point that I am going to have to make a claim on a deck and go with it. I still am not sure of what I am doing.

What you are doing is fighting for basically all shazzeh's cards!

Nobody went for the mill deck, which makes me sad.


Some of us haven't even really shown what we're going for yet. The more niche a deck concept is the less the cards are likely to be contested and so the early picks aren't the cards that define how the deck will play, but are just the component parts that were at greatest risk of being taken by other people for their decks.

I took Sword of Body and Mind. In a format with 40 card decks, that's "Connect 3 times and you win by mill".

Rashad didn't even go for the mill deck in the pro version. His first round Glimpse was a decoy.

I mean, if you smack someone in the face with a sworded guy three times, they probably weren't coming back anyways.

I love that ajunior's solution to fighting over U/R is to move into U/G, the only other Blue color pair already taken.

I mean, I suspect ajunior and I wont fight over much but fixing, but he could end up fighting with thatmarkguy a lot.

I expected a response like this from you... You are correct in that we won't be fighting over much but fixing but let me add...

You moved into blue after I did!! :) :)

I was never really in red anyway, one card doesn't do that. I actually have a deck in mind finally, and it would take a lot of curve ball picks these next two rounds for that to change.

And here I was hoping that claiming the Misty Rainforest would discourage others from bothering with Breeding Pool and Simic Growth Chamber. :)

What? The Misty Rainforest goes and I immediately start snapping up fixing, because it will be gone soon.

OK, *you* taking UG fixing didn't surprise me. AJ taking UG fixing did. Didn't expect anyone else to jump into G on my right (was wondering if someone on my left might, but they'd be BG, RG, or WG) - sure didn't expect someone to do so with a doublegreen cost card like Eternal Witness.

I also feel like the shocks are more important than the fetches in this format, because there is 1 shock for each 2 color pair but there are like 7 fetchs for that shock.

If I didn't use an early pick on Tarmogoyf I might be inclined to agree. Tarmogoyf likes fetches more.
