[MtG Arena] Draft Tales

[BlueTemplar]

So, I'm playing my very first drafts of Throne of Eldraine ever,
rare-drafting as usual, and in the 3rd draft (the previous went 4--3 and 2--3),
the rare I see in the first pack is... Happily Ever After !

I say to myself "Challenge Accepted !"...
but after a quite agonizing draft I realize that there's no way I'm going to make it work :

(It's really the "more than the starting life" condition that kills it, even with Foods it's such a high bar towards the end of a match...
also I realized that for the color condition, the permanents couldn't be in your graveyard, which gives me only like 1.5 black permanents in the deck !)

So, new plan : I've been somewhat heavily investing in artifacts since they still can work even with an horrible mana base (going from DomU's Domain to ToE's Adamant is quite the culture shock !), so I settle on this :

Lo, and behold, I *somehow* manage to get a 6--3 !

And all while getting into Platinium mid-way !!

P.S. : Weapon Rack + Animating Faerie // Bring to Life (+ Emry, Lurker of the Loch) is quite the neat combo !

P.P.S. : My last loss was against Torbran, Thane of Red Fell... guess what was the first rare that showed up in the next draft ?

Brutal !

One of those games where you feel bad for your opponent...

Shouldn't have used that The Temporal Anchor ...
