The thing is that no matter how deep I dig into the archives in the site, I find only a very partial part of the old vids. I went through the entire archive, and only found a couple SOM drafts, one triple mirroding besieged, one triple new phyrexia and one NMS block (that was actually Marshall going solo).

I’m pretty sure there used to be more than that, but I can’t seem to find them anywhere.

But I’m watching draft vids of the format and I’m honestly not getting what’s so special about it. The mechanics are wicked cool – Totem Armor, Levelers and Eldrazi are awesome. But as far as focusing on synergy and constructing a deck, I feel like most of the recent formats had that in equal (or at least comparable) measures to Rise of the Eldrazi. I’m thinking Scars of Mirrodin, Innistrad and Theros (Return to Ravnica was cool in it’s way but I feel it was not as good as the rest of the sets I played so far).

So what’s the allure that I’m missing? what’s so awesome with the format?
