    My favourite part was 1:15 "I heavily dislike green in this format", but the draft steers you to all the greediest green cards, and proceeds to burn you with opening hands EVERY. SINGLE. GAME.
    Well fought.

  • @randomaccount6146
    @randomaccount6146 7 дней назад +8

    1:30:00 btw because of the new combat rules you could assign your damage in the predamage phase so that you only kill the spinner of souls and distrubute non leathal damage to the rest of the creatures then assign leathal in the regular damage phase. This way the spinner gets 0 triggers and you still kill all creatures.

    It’s so interesting seeing kenji build draft decks, I would never consider splashing a single burst lightning, not saying it’s right or wrong (I don’t know lol) but I’d never think of that

    • @vanillacrem3
      @vanillacrem3 8 дней назад +2

      Singleton Burst Lightning also splashes well in UB (for similar reasons as Kenji's deck here, as UB is the best color pair for Campus Guide and Micromancer and is also hungry for removal).

      I don't like it, especially in such a mana-hungry deck with lots of double-pip cards - this deck, for example, had a LOT of double-green casting cost cards, and the lone mountain, along with drawing burst some games, contributed to some of these losses.

    Draft could have alternatively gone towards a more consistent GR (incidentally the highest winrate home for both Gx generally and Felling Blow specifically), but with that kind of variance it's hard to imagine that making a huge difference.

  • @nbrisendine457

    Awww man that last turn was a really rough one, sometimes they just have the nuts I guess. With the benefit of hindsight it looks like leaving back Bigfin and planning to cast Felling Blow to clear the 1/1 flyer leaves you at 1hp to a single Involuntary while still presenting lethal.

      Attack with colony and wurm, leave back turtle and bouncer and kill the flyer with bouncer. That way if they have removal + involuntary you survive on one life. Since that is like the only combination of cards you lose to I think it's the right play, but that's always easy to say in hindsight :)

    Rewatched the drafting, aside from the elf, at one point you could have taken a 'barrier', and there was the Thespian/Burst pick... other than that it was just the packs and you picking the best cards for your lane.

    I think not taking Llanowar Elves is clearly a mistake. Not only because it is the best green common but also it has a unique unreplaceble effect. So imho it´s the much stronger sign (getting and sending) than Beserker. And imagine you have two Komas in your deck with Loot 😉

    to be quite honest these opening hands were to be expected. fixing wasnt good, the curve basically starts at 3, so many expensive cards, and all of that with virtually no ramp in the entire deck. Koma is great when cast, but I feel like in a deck without ramp koma in your starting hand might as well be a mull to 6.
