Oh what a pleasant surprise, LSV drafting my favorite archetype in the new format. I honestly can't think of anything I'd rather spend an hour on this evening.
Really unquenchable thirst over blow easy? Idk it might be close but idk if that's "easy" by an stretch. Vizier of Tumbling Sand over Emberhorn Minotaur or Open Into Wonder seems dubious at best.
I think Unquenchable is easily better than Puncturing Blow as it deals with creatures of any size for less mana. I think you're right that Emberhorn/Vizier was close, but those are the two cards he even considers and I think with 2 Cunning Survivors the cycle on Vizier edged it over Minotaur to LSV. I don't think Open to Wonder is really in consideration there; it requires too much to be good and often feels win-more.
You are not an idiot. As LSV mentioned, if he had lost his Cunning Survivor with the block a bit earlier in the game instead of the Vizier, he would have had access to 6 mana on that last turn and he could have cast Inferno Jet for the win. However, he only had access to 5 mana and therefore could not cast Inferno Jet.

Xenogfan lSV was doing a blind draft with Gaby on twitch just now, great for another hr.
Pack3 I woulda liked to see you take an opportunity to force someone to side in Nissa's defeat :-(

Thirst is 2 mana removal, blow is 4 mana removal.
Thanks again LSV!
LSV playing U/R? Sign me up.
Sweet deck! too bad about that one game!
Wait did he punt match 2 game 1? wow, even pros get tunnel vision sometimes
Yes, couldn’t he just have attacked and exerted and the inferno jet? Its more than enough, right?
Am I an idiot or did LSV have lethal at 31:00 if he just played Inferno Jet and attacked?
Cody Herring not enough mana
Inferno jet costs 6 he couldn't cast it.

Very tactful and positive answer to comments that tend to be very negative. Props dude!
Gah, for some reason I thought he had 5 mana out. Silly me.
