Pack's up a little early.

Pick 13 will be done as it was last time: With a twelve-hour time limit. 14-15 will be autodrafted by KC, and we should have a little extra time with the start of pack 3.

Either the Wear / Tear for the sideboard or the Wake the Reflections and hope we get at least 2 more gates and at least 1 more Sunspire Gatekeepers (which would give us 3 token producing targets).

I'm probably leaning more towards the Wear / Tear since I seem to remember that one of the packs had a Sunspire Gatekeepers that got taken in the first pass around the table. I don't remember if that pack was just bad where it was their only pick or if they are drafting a gatekeeper strategy (there were 3 Orzhov Gates that we passed) which might make it difficult to get the additional gatekeepers that we need.

At the same time though, in the next pack we might be passing to the person with the Orzhov gates instead of getting passed from that person (or it could be the reverse).

+1 Wake of Reflection

I just looked through the list of Artifacts and Enchantments in DMG. Why on earth would we ever want Wear / Tear. The only artifacts in DMG are cluestones, and the only enchantment that I'm even remotely threatened by in DMG is Unflinching Courage, and from what I've seen there aren't exactly a ton of people running both green and white.

My only internal debate was if people would have Unflinching Courage. If that's a small chance, then let's go for Reflection

+1 Wake the Reflection

I feel like Wake the Reflection, while being pretty iffy in block draft, is even worse here. I'd much rather have Wear / Tear in the event that our opponent does end up having something like unflinching courage.

Siding with Wear / Tear here. I'm wary of Gruul War Chant and Krasis Incubation in addition to the already mentioned Courage. In general, we've more targets for it in DGM than we have for Wake, too.
