Only thing I disagree with is not taking Zap. The card looks terrible but it's not awful and replaces itself. We might be good enough in GW but there is a chance that red opens up and we don't know if blue is a splash just because of tower drake. 5 mana 3/3 is fine but there are a lot better cards in black if that opens up.

I thought about Zap, but in the end I figured it would be more important to take the creature that kills all our creatures. And I think I would rather splash for black than red. Black/green has some really powerful stuff in this block, including the all mighty SPIRITMONGERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR. He looks at Titans and LAUGHS. Also, there's that consuming spell that gives +2/+2 and -2/-2 for 1GB.
And black has Dead Ringers, which is a really powerful removal spell.

Hobble

Is it just me, or is this pack really bad for us? Terminate, the Battlemage, Death Bomb are great, but the Charm and Call seem underwhelming.

Eladamri's Call is awesome. I don't think there's been a game of limited I've played where I didn't want to draw a specific creature.

Hobble is decent removal in our colors, but Call is too good to pass.

Call is pretty good, lets us find our bomb.
Hobble is a sorta pacifism that cantrips.
Magma Burst is removal with the potential to kick.
Terminate is self-explanatory.

I think that Call is the pick, but wouldn't be against moving into another color.

I think I am biased by others but Call seems fine. That's a crapton of removal to pass.

seems good, I didn't even realize we might actually play blue.

Pretty sure Gaea's Might is unpassable in this format.

In fact, I'm 100% sure of it.

The pick is Gaea's Might.

Sunscape Battlemage

Does anyone remember, are there are profits to be had by bouncing creatures? (Silly me, look at the Battlemage) Then the Drake might be nice to have.

3 mana 3/3s are pretty sweet.

Drake.
