Drafting a 5-color deck is weird to me (I haven’t been around in Invasion block), so I decided to try and aim for a Domain deck too see how if feels.
This means I picked the best spells from all colors, with emphasis on playability/splashability, starting from Shards (and of course aimed for Domain spells in Conflux).
Pack 1
Pick 1
Spoiler:
The best card in the pack and highly light on mana requirements.
My pick:
Pick 2
Spoiler:
I prefer to stay closer to red so I don't take Resounding Silence.
My pick:
Pick 3
Spoiler:
Not sure if Charm > Dragger, but Dragger is highly more splashable and its cycling is blessed.
My pick:
Pick 4
Spoiler:
Yes, this is starting to look like a domain deck. Good splashable spells.
Really, I'm mostly valuing splashability and raw power over building a consistent deck here. This means I have to keep my eyes open for mana fixers.
My pick:
Pick 5
Spoiler:
Usually the gargoyle is way better, but I won't have that many artifacts and fixers are a must.
My pick:
Pick 6
Spoiler:
My pick:
Pick 7
Spoiler:
My pick:
Pick 8
Spoiler:
I still prefer the fixer over a playable card in this deck.
My pick:
Pick 9
Spoiler:
My pick:
Pick 10
Spoiler:
My pick:
Pick 11
Spoiler:
My pick:
Pick 12
Spoiler:
My pick:
Pick 13
Spoiler:
My pick:
Pick 14
Pack 2
Pick 1
Spoiler:
Not much chance of picking Akrasan Squires in this draft.
My pick:
Pick 2
Spoiler:
My pick:
Pick 3
Spoiler:
Not splashable, but I can't ignore its bomb-ness.
My pick:
Pick 4
Spoiler:
My pick:
Pick 5
Spoiler:
:)
My pick:
Pick 6
Spoiler:
This could be useful, as I don't mind discarding the cards I won't be able to cast because I won't have the mana, if it forces my opponent to discard playable cards.
My pick:
This walkthrough contained too little text for my taste, one of the reasons is technical difficulties displaying the image for Scornful Æther-Lich. It’s been about two weeks between the draft and now, and I’m lazying off about writing more about it (plus I don’t remember it by now). Will try to make it up in my next walkthrough.
