(yawning) whoaaaa, that was quite a nap. Hey, so how’s the world doing? (awkward pause…) I think for the first time in quite a while, I simply skipped an entire set. At first, I thought all this quarantine would imply that I would be able to binge Magic without interruption. But I found that I simply had no appetite for a mentally taxing game that demands making decisions with incomplete information. Seems like I was getting my fill of that every day.
Draft log
P1p1: Not sure why the draft log botched P1p1, but it was a showdown between Massacre Wurm vs Enthralling Hold.
A reasonable choice, but the Wurm offers too much value even if it is at 6-mana. Probably took me too long to decided between them, since a day after this LR proclaimed it “a clear A”. In P1p5, a late Hunter’s Edge (strictly better Hunt the Weak) I read as a signal to move into green. It was pretty clear that GB was my lane and I built a thoroughly average GB deck out of it!
Summary
Overall the deck performed perfectly decently. A curve into some removal with a couple of powerful cards at the top end is a reliable, if dull, recipe for success.

re pact 1 pick 1, two questions:
my initial thought was removal on a stick, like this can dig you out. certainly format specific, like is 3 black doable, and how many 2 toughness or workable creatures are there. and then also is blue viable? like if there are eldrazi flying around i may go the other way.
however that restriction on the enchantment makes me worry, functionally i have to use it the turn they play the big drop and they know i have it so …..
overall you know me: I take the removal on a stick every time.
