MRD Tournament - Game commentary/Discussion

[grinnin]

Just to keep the momentum I'll throw mine up, as Cognis and I are probably not going to overlap.

Nyxathid
Smallpox
Pox
Grave Titan
Su-Chi
Vault of Whispers

[Cognis]

I'll take

Beacon of Destruction
Dragonskull Summit
Raging Ravine
Honden of Infinite Rage
Dwarven Blastminer
Elvish Visionary

[monopoman]

You took a Honden

I will take

Honden of Cleansing Fire
Honden of Seeing Winds
Izzet Signet

[Cognis]

The only card that I actually plan to play is Raging Ravine but thought honden could be a nice addition against weenie decks and works great with Goblin Sharpshooter, didn't really thought anybody would want it.

[Nicdanger]

Stirring Wildwood
Loam Lion
Gaddock Teeg

And again I'll catch up with the spreadsheet tomorrow . . zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!

[juzamjedi]

I take:

Cursecatcher
Wistful Selkie
Thieving Magpie

Aww is up

[aww1979]

I'll pick:

Goblin Charbelcher
Gemstone Mine
Gaea's Blessing

[jatill]

Fauna Shaman
Darksteel Citadel
Vampire Hexmage

[Shantak]

Nicdanger already picked Fauna Shaman

[jatill]

Ok. Divine Offering then.

[Shantak]

Genesis
Akroma, Angel of Wrath
Simic Signet
Capsize
Jungle Shrine
Stroke of Genius

Edit: Switched Jace's Ingenuity to Braingeyser
Edit 2: And Braingeyser to Stroke of Genius, if that's okay to you guys
Edit 3: ...and Stirring Wildwood to Jungle Shrine. I wonder if I should edit this post a few more times just in case.

[juzamjedi]

Jace's Ingenuity is not in Constructed Manalink; there are several alternatives available though. Select another one Shantak.

[Shantak]

Thanks for the info. I play with Limited often enough (I love my M11 decks) that I forgot this. I don't think any of the alternatives are instants, but Braingeyser should be a good fit.

Edit: While thinking further, I had a Stroke of Genius - there is an instant option!

[juzamjedi]

No problem at all, it was still your turn. I can't wait to make my next draft picks I already have them selected.
