your explanation of how to use fountain port bell is SO USEFUL. I would have never thought of drawing the card before deciding whether to put the land on top. I had a feeling that that card was actually pretty decent, but now I’m convinced that it’s very playable
Glad you found it helpful! I can’t take full credit for that as I saw someone post about that trick in particular on Reddit. But I thought it was important to include. I think the Bell is mostly a UB card since it helps the graveyard as well but any deck without a lot of 1 drops can play a copy.
Thanks for the comment! My advice would be twofold: 1. Don’t “lock in” too early. Push into the best colours where possible, if it’s a close pick or there’s nothing exciting in the pack (Green and Black, I would not include Red in that category). But don’t force the issue. You still want to be taking powerful cards. The colour disparity (outside of UR) is not that huge. 2. Don’t be afraid to take a good Blue rare early. Even though it’s the weakest colour, the rares and Shoreline Looter are great when backed up with blue’s better commons (Lightshell Duo, Dire Downdraft, Dazzling Denial, and the Draw-3). I posted a UB draft video that shows how you might navigate that way. Hope this helps!
Lizards being ranked as A for you is interesting - why do you think the statistical tier list on Arena doesn't reflect it, as apparently Arena stats actually have it below Frogs, Bats, and Mice.
BR is currently the 3rd-best two-colour archetype on 17Lands, although BW is gaining on it. Individual card win rates will be skewed by the win% of their respective decks. Not sure about Arena Stats, I haven’t seen that before, I’ll have to check it out! Black is gonna be the reason you get into the deck, if Green and White aren’t available. You get to wheel the Scales of Shale and hopefully some late Red cards. It’s certainly a half-step behind WG and BG, maybe call it Tier 1.5!

Great content! Just started drafting and this will definitely help me better decide my picks
@@danielrsalim97 Thank you I appreciate it! Glad you’re finding it helpful :)
Thanks new sub
@@CrissQ27 thank you so much!!
This is top tier content. Love seeing it.
Thank you very much! More coming soon :)
Thanks as always 👍
Thank you for watching and commenting:) more vids on the way
Force white on first pack will be golden!
Definitely a good place to start. I'm happy to be in Black, Green, or White early on.
Any tips how to actually get the good colors and cards? Everyone wants white, red, and green and it’s impossible to get what you need
Thanks for the comment!
