Tales of Master Seshiro has been my underrated darling. The turn 2-3 ramping has me playing this turn 4, The vigilance attached to the counters really pushes it to the next level. Along with finding it wheeling consistently

@ooogyman 2 жыл бұрын

Green has a ton of these great cards that are wheeling. Boseiju is my favorite saga, and is definitely first pickable, and Harmonious Emergence which can create an attacking 4/5 modified land creature with vigilance (and thus can tap for mana after combat) by turn 5 (without ramp or enchantment discounts) is awesome.

Thanks Nicolai! I think these might be the most useful videos on KZfaq for getting a quick overview of the format. Please keep em coming!

I like the 'news' setting for this video series. I think it would be cool and different going forward. Can't wait to see how your future videos progress.

Great content, Nicolai! My drafting was poorly performing throughout both innistrad sets, but it has improved a lot thanks to your videos! GB and GW definitely my favourites so far, real powerhouses.

Yah I love green black so many ways to reuse enchantments so you get a few of the “ kill a creature get a +1/+1 “ enchantment and keep it going

I watched this video and played draft at my lgs. I made it to 3rd place 🥉 with Black Green. I don’t draft much and haven’t drafted in years. So Nicolai. Thanks so much for your videos and I learned alot

Nicolai, have you thought about making a video about the new sagas? They seemed a bit slow at the start of the format but I find them very powerful. You get a nice amount of value and a creature for a low cost. The life of umazawa is a good example. With so many 1 toughness creatures you often kill 2 of their creatures and get a 2/3 for 2 mana.

Love your regular meta analysis! I just started using 17lands Card Performance Comparison Tool and was hoping you could do a video on how you would use it? Currently I'm trying to identify late pickups that overperform in specific archetypes, so I'm plotting the In-Deck Win Rate in All Decks on the X-Axis versus the IDWR of specific archetypes on the Y-Axis. Ex: When We Were Young which averages 52.8% WR in All Decks jumps to 56.6% in BW, so if I'm drafting BW, WWWY could be a great value pick.

Surprised to see azorius so low in the rankings! It's been by far my best performing draft colour, with about 65% win rate.
