    Let me list the rares I got and you guys can tell me if they're worth something since I'm too lazy to look them up:
    Fathom Mage
    Gideon
    Diluvian Primordial
    Clan Defiance
    Frontline Medic
    Ogre Slumlord
    2x Obzedat's
    Foundry Champion
    2x Undercity Plagues

    edit: I'm not going to sell anything, I'm too lazy for that. I might trade with the one person I know that plays MtG though and I'd like to know if I have anything that's good trade material

    Deck lists for Sorin V Tibalt! Tibalt has a hellrider in his.

    So the tibalt deck has the worst planeswalker and doesn't even run the best burn spell? (Lightning bolt)

    Whereas sorin gets a fleet of awesome vampires

    Seems fair

    stupid FNM draft

    I drafted a decent gruul deck (3 madcaps, 1 spire trace, 1 alpha authority, burning tree emissary, 2 follower of the old ways, some 4/4 with trample)

    but I didn't draft the best possible gruul deck (I let a guildmage slip by and a couple of the 5/4 bloodrush guys)

    no money cards

    first round beat up a guy who was new to the game

    second round went up against a simic guy, won the first game with perfect draws, had out two madcapped creatures swinging for 10 combined on turn 4, game 2 got shitty draws and misplayed near the end which potentially cost me the game (i probably would have lost anyway), game 3 had to mull to 5 after getting flooded at 7 and 6, drew very few land and not many useful cards

    round 3 I went up against the hitler of dimir mill decks, mother fucker had a mind grind and a consuming aberration and oh god it was terrible. Game 1 I managed to burst him down to 2 life but then he locked up the board and started milling me, game 2 he just messed me up bad

    hands of binding is absolutely insufferable since it apparently functions as detain does and the effect can be used on a creature that is already tapped, preventing it from untaping literally forever unless you can get a blocker out in front of the ciphered thing or remove it in some way

    I did not draft enough (read basically any) removal

    I was doubly upset because in a previous limited event I had hands of binding and I assumed that shit wouldnt work because you can't tap a tapped creature you idiot so I was letting an opponent get away with bullshit instead of locking him down

    and it lead to me telling the other guy in round 1 that you couldnt use it to keep a tapped thing tapped because it was already tapped and none of the players sitting near me said anything and I felt super bad later because I had basically cheated the kid

    I still woulda won because I had madcaps all over the fucking place but still feel bad

    gruul was fun though, bloodrush is broken awful bullshit

    @kwoaru It seems like you though it said "tap target untapped creature?" That's usually only used in costs, a la cards like this.

    I wonder if it's just because they're newer, but right now the Gatecrash guild powers seem like, a lot better than the RTR ones. Evolve, cipher, and battalion are all at least more interesting to me than unleash or scavenge.

    So, i feel like the guilds make drafting a rigid experience. It seems to be all about who opens the bombs.

    ..aaand a 0-8 record over three swiss drafts.

    sort of, I realize now that it would have to say "untapped creature" to work the way I thought it did, but it never occurred to me that you could tap a tapped creature because that doesn't even make sense

    that shit is already tapped

    Of note, I also had a draft a couple weeks ago with 6 Basilica Screechers. I won that draft.

    You guys who are new to drafting, etc., seriously check out the videos on channelfireball.com from Luis Scott-Vargas. He is good at explaining what cards are good in what decks and when and why. He's got 4 Gatecrash drafts up, and he's only majorly punted the drafting section in one of them.

    are these videos on youtube maybe

    I havent seen a website load as poorly as channelfireball in fucking years
