I considered see beyond but there is better card advantage in this set.

but with 4 4-drops do we need a 5th? Yeesh, seems clunky. I'd rather ship my crappy land top decks to my library and net myself two cards.

U/G isn't a deck in this format, iirc. Absolutely no synergy.

We need all the four drops.

Roe wasn't about synergy I'm pretty sure. It was about big guys vs little guys vs walls.

That's why I don't like the idea of a blue card. When you go ramp, crappy land topdecks are like no.8 forward.

This draft is a lost cause more or less. We picked a big critter, then we picked some acceleration, and we passed two removals that completely destroy our game plan. What are we going to do about the leveler deck? Watch while it builds up and kills us?

Too early to say it's a lost cause. Green/red spawn - Broodwarden or Raid Bombardment both stand a decent chance against levelers. Spawn - Eldrazi can just power through. Levelers has a bunch of flyers which is why I chose leaf arrow.

Eel umbra. If we aren't getting removal we should pick up anti removal.

We had a chance at at least two good removals, we just didn't pick it. Umbra.

Which is what I ambiguously said.

Halimar Wavewatch

We seem to be UG, and we need early drops.

I think I'd rather have another eel umbra. Seems like the wavewatches are pretty easy to pick up, whereas the Umbra provides some resilience.

This draft is a mess...we should be in green black or green red right now instead of green blue >_>.

I guess another eel umbra since we're here.
