It's not doing well against much right now as a non-budget version, so you may be in trouble. I'm not sure of your meta, but white is going to hose you big time w/ main deck Firewalkers and reinforcements.

Yes, in alpha/beta, to keep the players guessing as to what was rare, an Island was placed in one of the rare slots. Unlucky guy....

It was a Beta pack, and I felt bad that he got screwed on the rare. --Evil __________________ I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds. Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see.

screwed on a free beta pack? Hrm... yah. I'd sure love to be screwed over like that all the time. That said, I'd likely have kept it sealed or figured out how to search it first.

Doing my first M11 draft in a long time.4th, 5th, 6th picks I'm seeing Lightning Bolts, Aether Adepts, Pacifisms, Sleep, all kinds of stuff. Whats going on? Then first match, dude plays Pyretic Ritual to put a Volcanic Strength on a Roc Egg. It went downhill from there. Next dude was probably worse (cast 3 Golden Glow moths on one turn). Well we were all new once, hope they had fun and learned something.

I'd love to be screwed on a free sealed beta pack as well.

I've never heard that this was done on purpose. I always understood it to be a mistake. Anyone have any more info on this?
