Great Passes

Limited forum

Anybody ever have a draft where the person next to them passed a great bomb to you? I drafted Khans last week and I opened Mardu Ascendancy, pretty okay pick for pack 1. I get passed Zurgo Helmsmasher from the guy on my right. I know Zurgo isn't the most amazing bomb in limited, but he put in some serious work for me that night.

I once got Chandra, Pyromaster passed to me. I later found out the kid that passed it selected to keep the foil Archangel of Thune in the pack instead. It was pretty nice.

Last week. Chaos Drafting.

I was in Green and Black. Pack three. Two passes. I'm looking at 12 cards - one of them is a Siege Rhino.

I'm in Green and Black, splashing white. Managed to get him out every time he hit my hand.

At a draft at gp nashville the same guy passed up Polluted Delta and a Siege Rhino. Not to me though, unfortunately

Got a foil Jeering Instigator, Mantis Rider, and Savage Knuckleblade in pick 2 of the three packs.

In the same draft, I was passed a Sorin, Solemn Visitor, a Siege Rhino, an Anafenza, the Foremost, and a foil Wingmate Roc. The players to my left and right were both pretty new to the game and seemed pretty set on trying to play "pure control."

Well, mine wasn't significant in a monetary sense, but the person to my right did pass me a Thousand Winds that I proceeded to use against him in both games. That card is crazy good in limited.

I was in a Modern Masters draft once, and passed a pack 1 Kokusho, the Evening Star for a Thirst for Knowledge due to the artifact-heavy pack it came in.

I was rewarded when third pack someone passed me an Arcbound Ravager and I was already heavily affinity. That day I learned how fun two Etherium Sculptor, two Myr Retriever and the Ravager could be.

Most memorable was at a RTR draft I got passed a foil Temple Garden. And now it's in one of my EDH decks.

Got passed 5 lightning bolts when it first got reprinted. That was a fun draft.
