That watch! Treating yourself?

So many draftcasts with Whip of Erebos, it’s numbing me out! Simon had 1 or 2 with Whip, and the Channel Fireball guys have had several Whip drafts too. It’s crazy how it just completely warps the game, and you end up with one side with crazy 30-40+ life and the other guy just trying to hold on and usually losing. It’s gotten to the point where I always root against the player with the Whip, because I’m sick of it (and in any games I play with or against it too!). It’s a slow, miserable death, unlike something like Fabled Hero, which usually just kills you in 2 attack steps, and sometimes just 1.

Personally I don’t think you should have taken the Gray Merchant, he really wasn’t very good in your Green heavy deck anyway. Later in the draft you were talking about how you could splash via the Presence’s – Purphoros is an easy splash.
Shame to see you lose to a misclick – I think he probably had one of the Voyage’s Ends anyway, so you MIGHT have lost, but the misclick meant you would definitely lose, IMO.

The call with Purphoros is fine EITHER way that you make the call, so long as your explaining WHY you’re doing it.

What I mean is that you’re saying “look, i understand that X card is better, but I’m taking it because it’s the value of a booster pack and the entry fee for a draft” or whatever.

I have only recently started taking money cards, mostly because I’ve learned to better splash and make a coherent deck

in person, when we’re doing casual drafts, I rarely take money cards. I don’t care about trading too much unless it’s something for my commander deck because I keep my collection online mostly. If I could make it to shops more often or something I might care more.

Great vids, as always! Still think you ought to go back to beta!

It’s tough that MTGO is so unforgiving when it comes to miss clicks like that. Funnily enough I had a similar thing in the finals of a draft last night where i accidentally savage surged his guy to take out my own! It’ sooooo frustrating!
