This week we have Garrett on for his very first Khans of Tarkir draft. Never having drafted the set before, he didn't have much to say about our picks, but as usual, he really shone during play. This is especially evident in round three, where he clearly should have been in command of the controls. Enjoy!
Even though our first pick, which pushed us into our colours to begin with, never really came out to play, we made what I think was a pretty superb Temur deck. It had an aggressive curve with some removal, and a couple of big finishers.
I was a little trepidatious about splashing the Mantis rider, but with all the tap lands and the Mardu Warshrieker for white mana fixing, running it was basically free, and it paid off.
Though we had learned not to be greedy after last week, the lesson of "keep calm" was pressed home to me again this week, as you'll see in round 3.
All in all it was fun, and we'll probably be having Garrett back soon, after he's had some experience with the set.
Thanks for watching, and we'll see you next time.
