Ruination Guide pumps your lands as well, since they are colorless.

Gotta say, while I don’t play Magic myself anymore, this is easily my favorite format in several years.

Nice draft, very challenging but rewarding archetype. Congrats.

Round 2, he didn’t forgot about Lumbering Falls, it’s just that he can’t activate it without green mana.

I really enjoyed this one.
Zendikar indeed shapes into being a great draft format and (in my opinion) a horrible sealed format that depends way too much on your pool.

While it was lucky to see so much blue after starting with the early roil spouts, I believe you drafted your seat very well. I’ve gotten close to 25 drafts under my belt so far, and I thought you made correct pick choices in a lot of packs where it was close. Especially for having so little experience drafting the format. Made for an enjoyable one to sit alongside and watch. Looking forward to exploring the format further and I’ll be following the drafts you post.
