I love Flash, and taking it first is exciting - will it live up to the hype?

Wow that round1 game 3 was the most insane comeback i've seen in a while. Chaining together the perfect sequence of answers. That was incredible.

I like that LSV posts even lost drafts, cose you can see what went wrong/unlucky, And the fact that he explains almost everysthing makes this channel awsome. I've learned a lot over last months by watching. Thanks a lot Luis.

Nooo Not Flash, I crave the Ws! Something I reluctantly accepted in my cube design is that if a combo doesn't have redundancy, it gets a ton of Ls just through inconsistency. Flash and Opposition are like the posterboys of that. I think if you don't have redundancy in some of these powerful buildaround effects (including tutors, or strategic parallels as broad as Academy:Tinker), those buildarounds become traps, however powerful they might be. That's a big part of why I love reanimate, and prefer Sneak to Show. If it's just the one copy of the effect cycling the draft, you're basically following up the draft to tutor or die.

@Stokkeland23 7 ай бұрын

Don't really understand the decision to not Flash in the Worldspine Wurm and threaten lethal in game 1 and choose Atraxa over it. I mean he just cast a sweeper in Toxic Deluge. I think that's a pretty big mistake.

@latitude990 7 ай бұрын

I was thinking the same. I guess the assumption is that the opp has a counter, and if you main phase wurm Archon can beat it. Idk it's probably close, I'm sure LSV just does all these decision trees in his head in 3 seconds lmao

@JEstey10000 7 ай бұрын

Remember, at the time LSV was expecting his opponent to follow up by reanimating an Archon of Cruelty. The Archon would have forced the sacrifice of one Wurm token (plus a discard), gained 3 life to push the opponent out of danger, and profitably blocked one of the remaining Wurm tokens... and since a 6/6 Archon survives after blocking a 5/5 token, it even gets to munch the last token when it attacks next turn. (Sure, in the actual game, the opponent's reanimation spell was Persist, which made the Archon a 5/5... but LSV didn't know that when making this decision. For all he knew, it could have just as easily been Reanimate, Animate Dead, or Necromancy. Also, even a 5/5 Archon makes the Worldspine play worse than the Atraxa play, IMO.) Flashing in Atraxa made a lot more sense in that situation, IMO: it refilled LSV's hand while keeping his board empty, so he had plenty of cards in hand to ditch to an Archon's discard trigger, and no creatures at all to sac to its sac trigger.

Kind of tragic that you never drew Channel early as well. Your deck had many possibilities for "oops, I win" starts and even a tutor to help assemble them. No power, but definitely felt like you could expect a 2-1.

@Zii_Vii 7 ай бұрын

I had a thought about the drafting and deck building for cube, do you think it would be doable and fun to draft as a team, no comms as usual, and build 3 decks with the collective pile afterwards? Or 4 in the case of 8 man draft. I was thinking this might spice up the team draft aspect in an interesting and punishing way and possibly force some unique choices and decks. So as an example, if you took flash and a teammate took a bunch of fatties for show and tell or something, you could have more potential to draft the 'perfect' version of a draft archetype. This would allow an extra chance for those unused bombs and spec picks in the side to find their partners for the combos and pop off. It would also make land picks more valuable because even if you can't use it, a teammate probably can. Again, no comms so you can only work off of signals and what you know about the players or have strategized beforehand. To make it extra spicy I think keeping the same time for deck building would force good team communication and cooperation. Anyway, just a thought. It sounds kinda fun and definitely fun to watch! 😁

@jedrzejkraszpulski442 7 ай бұрын

This just sounds like team sealed with extra steps. If you get a big pile at the end, you'll pretty much just pick the best card out of each pack ignoring colors and strategies.

@walabyla 7 ай бұрын

Hey, do you manipulate packs? in the sense of having at least x cards with property z in a pack (colors for exmpl)? Or is the card pool just shuffled and go? Cheers

@mattwc93 7 ай бұрын

The packs are completely random.

@dementievatz 7 ай бұрын

In MTGO drafts, the packs are built so that you never get the all white pack for example. But since LSV team drafts on an outside app, they might be completely random there.

@@turbobrew Yeah, you kind of need an eldrazi in hand right when you get the combo in play, otherwise you either don't have enough colored mana to cast something else, or they destroy one of the combo pieces before your next turn.

Because there are far more scenarios where drawing a marginal equipment over a real card will cost you the game. Healing salve can sometimes win you the game, too, doesn't mean you should run it.
