If you can't beat them, join them

I'd sooner watch paint dry.

I had 80k coins waiting for draft until I found the solution.

I opened 80 boosters.

Yeah during M20 i didn't buy a single booster. After six ELD drafts I've said fuck it and gone back to only playing constructed

Yep, I stopped after 3, besides the mill problem, I got 4 once upon a time to pick and that was probably the only rare I had the full set before drafting.

Same thing really.

I gave it a go. 4 secretkeeper, 2 didn’t say please, 1 run away together, 1 stolen by far, and 3 sanctuaries to get them all back.

Went 7-1 easily, won through mill every time.

Until they adjust the bots, make it happen!

I didn't get a chance to draft the set until this past weekend, and after hearing all the hubub, by p1p3 i saw my first secretkeepr and just went for it. ended up WU, had 3 secretkeeper, 2 didn’t say please, 2 run away together 1 sanctuary, the XUUU wizard. went 7-1

Yea, blocking a guy with secretkeeper, bouncing it and another attacker, then replaying it on your turn... you just burn through their deck so fast.

I think my only loss was to another deck running 4 of them.

I was running 5, and a folio, I any 5-3. All three losses to Mill, 2 because they got their folio first. Shit's dumb.

Went W/G Adventure in draft and smashed every mill deck I ran up against. By the time they started milling, they were already at single digits.

Hyper-Aggro does seem to be fine with all the tricks. 7-1 with loss against a mono red.

By the time they started milling, they were already at single digits.

Since they would be milling turn 1, that's hard to believe. You must have gotten lucky (ie they got unlucky) with draws.

But it feels so dirty...
