Can we really hate a mantle? 2 mantles? No one wanted them the first time they have to be pure Jund to really get value I think.

scout seems like an ok sideboard card vs. red or black aggro. We don't have any real 2 drops (excepting the famililars, one of which is off-color and they are both 1/1s that we would like to keep alive)

Scout is in color and is insane as a sb card

I wouldn't play it, even if I was going straight up against a rakdos deck. 1/1s just aren't worth spending actual cards on, even if they gain you life.

They are when they gain you 6 life.

Still seems like a huge waste. How often did you play the green gatekeeper in DGM draft?

A number of really solid cards here, really want to take Fervent Charge because it is so good.
Other good cards are Squee's Embrace, Goblin Legionnaire, Coastal Drake (that ability is really relevant) and the Flagbearer.

If I had three gates then as often as possible. Pretty sure it got me to top eight.

Honor guard. That ability is stronger than it looks.

In DRAFT? A 4 mana 2/4 that gains 7?

It's a giant spider that can essentially erase all the damage you took up to that point, minus reach. I think the problem here is when I hear draft I think booster and sealed, more often sealed because that's what I've played more of. Great card in sealed since you're getting all those gates, probably not so good booster draft but if you have two gates and are on like pick 6 in green it's awesome.

I have no idea how to evaluate these old cards. I wish we could take the volver though, or were splashing black for death. Living airship?

I think Life/Death is the pick. We have a lot of fixing.

Dega Disciple, Life // Death, Goblin Legionnaire, and Dead Ringers are the best cards in this pack.

Wait, does combat damage stack?

3 Goblin Legionnaire in a row. Weird. My pick is that Bearer.

Goblin Legionnaire was one of the best cards from this block. But of course, Combat Damage stacked back then.

On topic, Dega Sanctuary is a very good card in this format - a lot of lifegain for 3 mana.
