The Benalish Daddies are BACK. We’re pioneering a new co-draft, where we draft and just play one game, then the other drafts and plays a game. Maximizes drafting and minimizes being trapped on the draw with a subpar deck. So let’s see how we did. Note how I apparently screwed up the portion of the screen to capture, emphasizing getting Chris’s rugged profile but cutting off about… 25% of the field. I did better on Chris’s draft though!

Draft

This was an interesting draft that I think speaks to the power of not overcommitting. It was a very murky first pack with some early gate payoffs and late blue playables, very little in the sense of “signals.” Then late Dovin’s Acuity and a pair of High Alerts put us in Azorius. I disagreed strongly with taking Windstorm Drake over Spirit of the Spires and I feel somewhat vindicated by the outcome.
