Today’s practice deck came together nicely.
It was pretty clear before pack one ended that I would be Green/White. My second pick was a Triplicate Spirits and I scoured a couple Dauntless River Marshals as well.
After pack one though it was clear I needed cheaper creatures. So I hunted those out and was rewarded in pack two.

I never really felt like today’s deck came together. I feel I ended up with a pile of good cards that lacked synergy. This is one of my biggest weaknesses and the one I am trying to overcome most.
In pack three I first picked a Jace, the Living Guildpact and second picked Jalira, Master Polymorphist. At that point I decided to get as much blue as I could.

Ob Nixilis, Unshackled was my first pick. I figured he’d be a good win condition so the rest of my picks were centered around him.

Today lacked a clear win condition. I didn’t draft any crazy cool bombs and am concerned with the power level of my deck.

I first picked a Hornet Nest and immediately decided I wanted Green/Red to take advantage of direct damage to the Hornet Nest. The idea of instant speed, flying deathtouchers is very appealing.

So today’s practice draft did not go as well as planned.
On pack one pick one I grabbed a Mind Sculpt. My thought process was, “if I get a Mind Sculpt in the first pack I can get a whole bunch as the draft goes on and just go straight mill. Furthermore, this is a practice draft so why the heck not?” I was hoping for 4 or 5 Mind Sculpts.

Day three of the September experiment didn’t feel so good. I felt like I drafted without a clear focus. See what I was able to put together and share your tips on drafting synergy decks.

During September I am going to draft everyday to see if I improve. Yesterday (September 1st) I drafted on MTGO and went 2-1. Sadly that was because the guys I beat conceded on the 2nd game of our match. Oh well.
