Journey into Nyx prerelease on MtGO... and unfortunately the format is nothing like fixed enough to be playable.
Can't decide whether to write an article analysing the block's draft failures or just ignore the problem until September.
I tried a 3xJOU (is that new? I don't remember them offering them before release events started before) and it seemed better. 1 is a small sample size, of course, but there may be something to it. Bestow is one of the main offenders IMO and there's very little in JOU and it's more fair since it comes with a drawback.
Actually, no. Very "no". Anything with an integrated circuit inside is electronic (basically everything nowadays, even a microwave oven or a dishwasher. And that definition doesn't imply "digital". You can very well be electronic and analogic.
So I can't use my microwave to keep track of life totals anymore? Darn.
How good is the Trawler if you're not in white? Given that the team to our right is very likely in white I'd be inclined to avoid it as our second color.

Or a pacemaker.
I fully expect most judges will use discretion in such cases, but they really should spell out the exceptions in the policy documents.
Since we obviously don't know that we're going to be a dedicated heroic deck yet, I'd go with Ghostblade.
I wonder...are they getting desperate, or are they just trying to tank the prices of those cards to get more people playing Legacy/Vintage.
We passed a Trawler p1p2 as well. They're not high picks in my experience, so I expect to see one or both on the wheel.
His spark did, though. Which is pretty impressive by PW standards.
And is surviving dying really that big of an accomplishment? I mean, if a random minor character can do it....
I'm sure that's a problem Bolas has a solution to. For example, I could see him having Tezzeret pick up some spare soul traps while on Mirrodin.
