Deck Description

Ok so I knew today was a good day when the first card I picked at draft tonight was Kiora, unsurprising for fellow draft players I decided that'll go into G/U, so I was happy picking Anticipate and Skyriders.
Things continued in a strong vein when I then pulled Gideon, however I was happy to treat him as splash only after all even without other W cards the W mana made the Skyrider and Stalwarts better so I stuck to pulling G/U after all more fixing/draw to hit the 2 Planeswalkers. Can't be bad right?!
You know that feeling when you pull a third Planeswalker at draft... well now I do too!
Unsurprisingly I kept pulling G/U looking for yet more draw/mana fixing amidst much murmuring of disbelief from fellow drafters!


However the true moral of the story is this: 3 Planeswalkers a draft deck does not make, I went 1-2 overall with 2-0 1-2 0-2 as the results, however I was still surprised quite how badly it did; I though with all the fixing/draw that I'd be able to hit into combos like Gideon/Warcaller or Behemoth/Tokens, Token/Warcaller or even just to stall into Kiora's Ultimate.


Upon discussion with other players some felt that Anticipate/Seek should be dropped to run more large creatures, I however stand by the fact that with Kiora it lets me fetch up to 8 cards deep into my deck and the consistency/reliability it offers is too good to drop, also Ruination Guide in for the Incubator was discussed, anyway if you've reached this point of this extensive monologue (well done!): then please I'd like to hear how you'd change!

How to Play

Well there were 2 (arguably 3) major win conditions:

1: Tajuru Warcaller with all those little Scions or Gideon helping by making Knight Allies into 2/2 blockers + temporary +2 anthem for turn

2: Kiora's Ultimate to sweep the board and then have 24 points of damage on the board.

3: Same as 2, but you use the other Kiora!

Yeah it was kind of nuts really, I mean even though I came 4th of 6 players (our pod was the small one) at no point can I claim it was a bad night; after all I had the 2nd most expensive deck there! Someone pulled a Misty Rainforest Expedition Land... but that happens at every draft...right?
