It's Day 7 of Bloomburrow Draft Superweek! I hope you enjoyed all the Draft videos leading up to the global launch of Bloomburrow on MTG Arena! If you missed any, you can find all 7 of them on my channel. Enjoy!

[@DestroyerX2000]

WE LOVE BLOOMBURROW DRAFT TOO!!! :) thoroughly enjoyed Superweek and very glad that we now get to join in the fun. For now back to my own draft, but I'll watch this one tomorrow.

[@NicolaiBolas]

I'm glad you enjoyed the superweek!

[@Zelein]

41:30 - I genuinely facepalmed alongside you at the exact same time. The horror. Great videos, I'm so glad I got you recommended to me by Game School Dad

[@NicolaiBolas]

I'm glad you've been enjoying my videos! Getting surprised by text on a card is always a bit of a whoops.

[@allfunlovermtg]

I think I might have seen all 7, great job getting so much sweet content out so soon! I know it's not easy ;P #Raccoons!

[@NicolaiBolas]

I’m so glad you enjoyed them and I appreciate the kind words!

[@benwonsey26]

Been loving racoons, sweet deck with more synergy than first expected

[@NicolaiBolas]

Racoons is a lot of fun!

[@jbenhaim5751]

For “Agate Assault,” the word “agate” is pronounced like “AGG-et” or “AGG-ut” rather than like “a gate.” I know, it’s not intuitive, but it soon feels more natural to say it that way.

[@NicolaiBolas]

Thanks for the tip! I actually started saying it right after reading this comment (and a couple other folks who pointed it out too). I appreciate it!

[@blahbluh10]

Just got my first trophy in this set eith Camelia! Definitely think you made the right choice passing it, there are 2 so it would have been contested, but boy is squirrels a fun archetype! When you get camelia and scavengers talent on the board you might as well be immortal ! Sac a food for a squirrel and a buf, chomp with the squirrel token, get a food, rinse and repeat ! So much fun !

[@NicolaiBolas]

I got to play a Camellia deck myself and I agree the card is awesome!

[@sethemerson1564]

Can you make a video explaining how to reckonise if your deck is aggro control midrange late game

[@Gamerwilliams97]

Love your videos "A-git assault"

[@vendorbruh9977]

That's how you pronounce the word. Everyone saying "a gate" is wrong. I'm in the jewelry business and agate is a kind of stone.

[@NicolaiBolas]

Thanks for the tip!

[@4stringjoe2]

I've gone Frogs in Sealed twice. Once without the Stun ETB creatures that was awful. And once with them and it rocked! I like their gimmick and it's fun to play. But it feels like you really need those stuns to make it work. At least that's been my experience so far...

[@NicolaiBolas]

I have had a similar experience in Draft. It feels like you really need high rarity cards and Pond Prophets to make the deck work.

[@scizo8882]

#Racooonz!!!

[@insidious]

I think Stickytongue Sentinel deserves a bit more consideration in this kind of deck since it's an Expend enabler and if you end up with some high value enter the battlefield effects (Hunter's Talent immediately comes to mind) it becomes a lot more powerful. Remember that it's optional, so at worst its a 3/3 Reach.

[@NicolaiBolas]

I haven't loved the Sentinel because I feel like the game is generally close enough that I don't have time to bounce things to my hand. I definitely know it can be played as a 3/3 Reach at worst.

[@wcooper0077]

Why didn't you just cut a land? Seems like a great 16 land deck. Fyi posted before first game played

[@doctor-goggles]

4 mana might not be a ton, but all of his most impactful plays are 4-drops. you really want to hit that 4th land, and hit it on turn 4, in a deck like this. IMO.

[@NicolaiBolas]

The creatures aren't as useful at ramping me to play things ahead of schedule if I miss land drops. That is often my logic in those sorts of spots.

[@forshort6769]

Why didnt you cut a land with such a low mana curve? You even had 2 mana creatures?

[@kylewark8163]

Raccoons!
