Pack 1, Pick 12 —July 4, 2013
Pilfered Plans
Well I'm guessing yes. There was no other opinion. Has everyone else submitted theirs already KrazyCaley?

Was waiting on you guys and one other group that also had unanimous votes for a pick but hadn't mailed it yet. Still waiting on them, but thanks for sending it, Gurei. Now I can focus on bugging them. :D

Normally in a draft I wouldn't main deck any of these cards.
In a situation where the cards aren't really main deckable you can either hate draft, pick a sideboard, or pick a card that is main deckable only in a certain type of deck you can draft.
None of the cards imo are really strong enough warrant a hate draft. None of these are really side board material as far as I can tell.
There is one card that could potentially be main deckable if the cards just happen to fall along that strategy
+1 Wake of Reflections
While we probably won't use it, if by chance strong token cards come our way like Advent of the Wurm and we get some easy to get token creators like Sunspire Gatekeepers Wake could very easily end up in our main board. If the cards don't end up like that then no terrible loss considering what we picked it over.
Though I'm not anywhere convinced on the pick though and if someone can present a good argument for another card I can easily switch my vote.

Normally I wouldn't touch Wake the Reflections with the dullest of sticks, but that's an argument I can go with. Otherwise, I'd consider hating Hidden Strings , as it could be potentially annoying (on a fliers, mostly).

I would hate having 2 of our best blockers tapped when the opponent is attacking. We do have ready but I'd prefer not to use it because of this card
+1 hidden strings

+1 Wake the Reflections
This is something i can actually see us using maybe. If we happen to have sunspire and this at the same time, an extra 2/2 for 1 could make the difference

I feel like Mutant's Prey is in a similar situation to Wake the Reflections, but it's also a bit better if it works out. Or have we decided that someone very well may be drafting u/g? I don't remember.

Yea. Someone took the beetleform Mage (I think). So someone is probably drafting simic

Well here's to hoping we pop an Advent of the Wurm in the next pack.
+1 Wake the Reflections

@GureiSeion - Can I presume Viashino Firstblade is the pick?
