I drafted this deck with which I am horribly inexperienced, and I'm not sure if I built it correctly given all of the options it has. Please, if you have time, give your opinions on how you would build.
Because overall the deck is trash. People gave you suggestions to be somewhat legacy competitive and you shrugged them aside to try and tune this janky pile. I'm surprised anybody assisted you after you posted your list.
In a for profit model that seems like a fair price. In order to draft full block sets of the past you would have to personally buy a box of each and host. If one pack of each costs you 20.00 retail, $15 for the convenience of having the older packs provided and a place, with other people, to play. Their payout should be in older packs though.
Sorry to tell you this, but only legendary creatures can be used as "commanders" in a commander deck. Also remember that legendary enchantment creatures are still legendary creatures and that your deck must be at least 100 cards. Although, I think a planeswalker may be tournament legal in a commander deck. If you are having more trouble and nobody online can answer your questions, there are usually Friday night tournaments/draft events you can go to which may have someone who can answer your question.
pretty sure 3 years is long enough to figure it out on their own. Nice necro...
Hi, I'm new to EDH like your buddy. I got into it because two of my employees play regularly and running a business leaves me little time to draft. If you want to detour slightly to the Tri-Cities (Kennewick/Pasco/Richland) in Eastern Washington we would love to have you for a game. Also, my business is a cannabis dispensary - we will roll out the green carpet for you, providing you are of age. PM me for further information. Happy travels!
I have drafted GTC a few times now, not impressed in the slightest. I have yet to actually enjoy my time playing the set, even winning most of the matches. I will be anxiously awaiting RTR/GTC/DGM.
Nah, that can't be right at all. The thing is, even if your primary plan is to be as aggressive as possible, there are definitely a nonzero number of games where things just don't play out the way you want them to. In a draft, I somewhat understand cutting a card like this (even though I would never, ever do it), because you only have to win six out of a possible nine games. It's certainly possible that in a number as small as nine games, you'll never have a situation where your "plan A" of aggression doesn't work and you need to grind out a victory some other way.
However, if we're talking about a high level sealed such as a GP or even a PTQ, we're now talking about having to win perhaps 7-8 matches or more. That means we might play three or even four times as many games in the course of a day than we ever would in a draft. That creates a pretty large sample size of games, and the chance of hitting multiple games throughout the day that don't go as planned is much higher. For this reason, you should always play cards in your sealed that are extremely powerful, even if they don't fit your deck's "plan." Playing stock archetypes is going to be much more effective in draft and even there I find it to be significantly worse than being creative in your deckbuilding.
Nah man, I would never play a card that provides inevitability in the form of a constantly growing stream of attackers and chumps. That would be the wrong play for sealed, an environment with some of the highest variance limited games MTG has to offer.
Also, can we slow down on passing packs? Pack 6 came and went in like 3 hours flat.
Yeah, sorry, some folks were pitching a fit about us taking too long on picks and that pack seemed like a no-brainer. I'll leave a minimum of 12 hours for team members to post before passing.
Don't take offense. Apparently I have Asberger's or something, I always manage to upset people without meaning to.
Maybe watch your caffeine intake or something? 1 day without a pack does not warrant a public complaint against me. You didn't address me directly - but the pick order is public so you may as well have. Just put to bed any future gripes or superfluous threads, because I promise I will pass packs as I have the time. If I foresee a period in which I cannot pass in a timely manner, you will receive a PM.

Hehehe.
Very good point, this does seem like the appropriate time for a hedge.
