We are in the market for more creatures, but Mardu Blazebringer isn't actually a creature. It's more of a Lava Axe/Diabolic Edict punisher card, and it's quite bad. So it's between the three instants for me. Force Away is the one I want the least, since we already have one and our two Bell Strikes fill a similar role. I think we would play a third Defiant Strike, it's quite good with our Prowess creatures, but I'd rather go for the Trumpet Blast here. I think we could use a finisher and I don't want to risk not seeing one later.
I am in the range of Force Away, Trumpet Blast and Defiant Strike. I would like some tokens before taking Trumpet Blast and Force Away is card disadvantage, so Defiant Strike for me. They never play around the third Defiant Strike.
Drafting Jeskai is always tricky because you need to know when to draft spells and when to draft prowess creatures. This pick is an excellent example.
Jeskai charm is an excellent card, but it is very hard to cast three-color cards on curve. So aggressive three-color cards are very tricky to play effectively. When we cast it, if we're ahead, we'll often win the game. But there will be other games it rots in the hand until late in the game, after we've already lost our tempo advantage.
Jeskai student is single-color, attacks into morphs (bluff attacks, but also to trigger raid), plays extremely well with our defiant strikes, and fills the most important slot in our curve.
After Jeskai student, I think the pick is close between the trumpet blast and the charm. Both are game winning mass pump effects that play well with our prowess creatures. But I think the priority for us should be securing enough prowess creatures to make the deck work. After all, we want as many prowess dudes as we can get, but only one or two trumpet blasts.
