Morning ladies and gentlemen,I decided to take a dry run at doing a draft video on MTGO. This particular draft had some really tough decisions during the draft and I'm not completely confident I made the best decisions during game play considering available information. As such, I'm posting this here looking for feedback regarding any aspect of the draft, gameplay and even commentary. I know there are quite a few limited players on here that could provide some worthwhile feedback  . http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=3C64AACF8F02D2E8 -Glenn

I started to evaluate picks, but the biggest issue is the focus of your deck, as well as the cards getting passed to you, changes by each pick you've made. All I'd really say is the infect deck seems fairly open and some choices made seem biased away from infect. P2P1 cystbearer, pick up a throne of geth earlier, etc. It would have been fairly solid. As it was now, I think some of those wins came because it was a swiss queue more then anything. P3P1 untammed might would have been available to you. The gargantuan shouldn't table ever unless no other player is in blue. Its a 7/7 flier or infect typically.

Yeah, I wasn't quite sure which direction to go in and kept waffling back and forth. I think that ended up hurting me in the end so more focus is definitely good. I haven't had a chance to run the Gargantuan but my feeling was that two 7 drops might me a little too much, especially considering how top-heavy my curve was already.I've been trying not to draft straight BG infect because I think that deck basically drafts itself and doesn't make for interesting viewing. I do like trying to get the Proliferate/Poison deck going but it's difficult to take a chance on that sometimes. Anyway, thanks for the feedback .

Managed to produce another SoM draft, feel free to check it out:http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=A2803AE7DE5C1FD5 I know I missed a major signal in pack one but it seemed to pay off in pack two and I got a bit of a break in pack three. Anyway, I enjoyed the draft and some of the games were quite close, so feel free to check it out and give me some feedback. Thanks in advance! -Glenn

your hesitancy throughout the the video is incredibly frustrating.. p1p4 throne of geth > silver myr
p1p7 strider harness > dinosaur
p2p1 i like cystbearer more than the slice in an infect deck
p2p2 slagwurm is not the pick
p2p4 while arblest is good in the infect deck, creature count.. contagius nim, or, if not a creature, untamed might is nuts
p2p5 IRON MYR OVER SCUDDER?????? WHAT? why do you even consider the blue when your blue cards are utterly horribly at that point?
p2p6 = cystbearer, stop talking myrs
p2p7 i'd take carrion call over mamba
p2p8 = sylvok replica, how was this even weighed vs spider? sacking a 2nd on p2p9 does not make the spider the right pick
p2p12 with your big creatures that doesnt have infect, tainted strike > defiance overview after pack 2, if you want u/g infect, should have taken the exoskeleton really high p3p1 = untamed might
p3p3 if i was drafting the infect deck properly, snap take tumble magnet
p3p5 in the infect deck take instill infection
p3p6 skinrender fits perfectly into the infect curve
p3p9, likely i'd take the defiance there

Why did I just read Coolio's comments and see the comment "p3p6 skinrender fits perfectly into the infect curve" ?
You are drafting with people that are pass that card along and you are having problems drafting? Might want to reconsider this venture...
