do we need a weekday group draft thread?
so we've been doing a bunch of weekday mtga drafts in the evening, and it's been a lot of fun. basically one person streams on discord while the other people participate.
i thought maybe this would be a good place to post deck screenshots, discuss the draft, signal to anyone who's interested when you're starting a draft, etc.
maybe i should have waited until i had a screenshot of my own before making this thread but too late now

Currently walking doggo and will start a draft when I get home (30 mins). Wasn't planning on streaming but totally can if anyone wants to watch.
Re: do we need a weekday group draft thread?
Agh I promised Khaos but forgot to take a screenshot. It was a fun draft, we went 3-0! Quandrix splashing red for 3(!) Heated Debates, that 3 mana sorcery burn spell with Learn, and Elemental Mastery.
If I had played on my own without streaming I probably would have crammed a Creative Outburst in there too, but Juri convinced me not to (she was right). Bracketbot and Skels and I think Kore also joined later, it was fun! The games were interesting, there were lots of decisions to be made. I had a good time, I hope you guys did too.

yes, that was good. sorry for twisting your and juri’s arm telling you to keep that second 2 lander, i’m just too impulsive
Re: do we need a weekday group draft thread?
That hand was so obviously a mull, man. How could you

Re: do we need a weekday group draft thread?
we did the dumb dimir deck and it owned
Re: do we need a weekday group draft thread?
I got badly owned with Prismari and less badly with Silverquill
Re: do we need a weekday group draft thread?
this time I did the dumb dimir deck and it owned. 7-1, 1 loss was because i played poorlyKhaos wrote:we did the dumb dimir deck and it owned
i don't draft very often so i was in bronze league and some of our opponents didn't know how to play. oh well
i cut reject
highlight might have been discarding elemental masterpiece for a treasure, then using it for white mana for the glyphweaver side of our plague wind to play around wrath, and then our opponent wrathing. but there were a lot of sweet games
edit: we also divided by zero our own callous bloodmage so we could use the bojuka bog mode to stop their radiant scrollwielder

our weekday draft groups have a very good win% i think. the extra processing power certainly helps a lot!
Re: do we need a weekday group draft thread?
7-0 in mythic qualifier D1, with Juri spectating and giving excellent advice! Turns out Bookwurm is a good card in sealed.

Re: do we need a weekday group draft thread?
this deck fuckin whipped
through the combined power of juri philosophising about random lines we could have taken after it was already too late, and ashenai remembering that you actually have to pay into wandering archaic we were completely unstoppable

you cannot play what you do not keep

Re: do we need a weekday group draft thread?
in all seriousness, the quality of the deck does not guarantee a good record, and you managed to get the best possible result!
