Hello Ryan, your recording has one major issue: Please do not read the cards aloud, your audience can do that on their own. Just move your cursor over the respective card and leave it there for a few seconds. Then you have way more time to state which card you will take for which reasons. (Maybe have an inspiring look at one of Simon’s videos, he does that quite well.)

Since everything on the internet must exist with a contrary opinion…

I usually listen to the audio from the videos. In standard formats, it’s pretty easy to follow along since I know the cards. Hearing the rules text read aloud in the videos was really helpful for me.

Also, thanks for doing a draft! It was fun to watch!

Thanks for the feedback everyone. I don’t do drafts often so it is nice to get some constructive criticism. To KabelB, the main reason I read all the texts of the cards I’m considering to pick most of the current Magic community started playing at Zendikar, so most players have never cracked a Timespiral pack and therefore have no idea what most commons, such as Castle Raptors and Corpulent Corpse, do.
