MTG Salvation

Please ignore the financial value of the cards for the purposes of this discussion.

Looks like a really weak pack. Picked Mana Bloom for the color fixing+pseudo-acceleration, but I'm not too happy about it.

I'm surprised people are picking Keening Apparition. As far as two drops go, Frostburn Weird strikes me as at least as appealing. I guess the former sends a clearer signal, though, as it's the only mono-white card in the pack. Speaking of white, the 8/8 is tempting.

Frostburn Weird actually seems surprisingly playable. Really relevant body that can get in some damage later for flexible casting cost sounds good.

Frostburn weird is a good wall and is difficult to block, in a pack that appears to have almost nothing.

I think mana bloom is the safest pick. Really REALLY weak pack. Doesn't commit you at all, its fixing/ramp, mainly fixing.

I'd either pick the Bloom (repeatable semi-land) or the Blistersquall. Probably Blistersquall for shutting down creatures.

Blustersquall seems mediocre to me besides the alpha-strike potential. It doesn't kill anything and only taps critters down for a turn.

Risen Sanctuary.. by an enormous margin..

The 8/8 is the only bomb in the pack. But it does cost seven and require two colors.

blustersquall-honestly the only card in that pack that can win the game.

When in doubt, I usually go with the fatty, but Blustersquall is really good. Cast it overloaded on an opponent's turn then alpha strike? Sounds good to me. This set's Sleep. (Not as powerful, but easily splashed and versatile as heck.)

This pack is weak. The 8/8, Goblin Rally, and Blustersquall are contenders, but I picked the 2/1 Swampwalk. Black is strong in this set and Scavenge is a good ability. A disappointing first pick, but a good card.

Blustersquall / Goblin Rally seem like the strongest picks to me.

Personally thought, i'd go with Goblin Rally.

Frostburn Weird. Out of this pack it's the strongest pick, yes it kinda shoehorns you into Izzet with the first pick, but it's the best in the pack. 1/4 for 2 that not only is a decent wall, but suddenly if left unblocked (and with an excess of mana) you have a 4/1 beater. Yes please.

I was thinking about Goblin Rally, but four 1/1s seem a lot worse than a 4/4 for this set. I guess there are a few pump cards, but much of the time you're just going to be chumping with them. That's okay but not exciting.

frostburn weird is the easy pick. pretty weak pack. the weird provides a good early blocker which turns into a good beater later. even if you go just red or blue it's still playable, just a bit worse is all.

Tough decision but I think Weird is the right pick. Versatile and powerful.

Meh, blustersquall looks like a bad sleep (not that that alone is much condemnation) but it let's you get through only once, not twice.

I went with the bloom because it's a gold set and I never feel in draft I have too much ramp or fixing.

Honestly chorus of might seems strong; in selesnia it's obviouvs, but for golgari it will be possible to scavenge for 4-5 counters onto a creature and swing in for lethal. I can see WGB being a powerful combo and this is similar to over run.

Bomby 8/8 and try to live the dream.

I voted for the Risen Sanctuary, but I forgot that Mana Bloom fixes as well. That's probably really important in a set like this. I could also absolutely see an argument for the Weird.

Weird in here is the strongest pick, all im saying to those people picking Risen Sanctuary remember this, its your first pick. Meaning either you are hoping white and green stay active, or you're drying up. The Weird actually allows you to play 3 different guilds if necessary, depending on the next picks. (albeit, UU or RR arent as appealing, but still quite doable.) The fatty would get one of the last picks from me, even though draft/sealed is slower format, 7 mana is still alot, and with no trample, good luck getting through on the first couple of turns.

Pretty tricky, this one. The fatty is cost-efficient, Weird is reliable, and Mana Bloom helps with color fixing, but I went for Blustersquall. Sleep is usually always playable in limited, and instant speed, better splashability, and the ability to just use it as a Dispatch is effective.

The best cards are Sewer Shambler, Goblin Rally and Druid's Deliverance, but the first is the easy pick, really.
