Time to hop into the Zendikar 8-4 queues and test the waters!  This ought to be amusing.

Picks are in bold.

Pack 1 pick 1:
Beast Hunt, Vastwood Gorger, Island, Kor Outfitter, Marsh Casualties, Adventuring Gear, Magma Rift, Whiplash Trap, Trapfinder’s Trick, Feast of Blood, Scythe Tiger, Mindbreak Trap, Punishing Fire, Nimana Sell-Sword, Vampire’s Bite

Marsh Casualties vs. the field.  First picks should be this good and this easy all the time.

Pack 1 pick 2:
Trapmaker’s Snare, Mountain, Caravan Hurda, Bala Ged Thief, Steppe Lynx, Guul Draz Vampire, Cobra Trap, Nissa’s Chosen, Turntimber Grove, Expedition Map, Quest for the Holy Relic, Tuktuk Grunts, Narrow Escape, Goblin Shortcutter

This one isn’t as much a blowout.  There’s cases to be made for Guul Draz Vampire and Goblin Shortcutter, but both those cards favor an aggressive deck, one I already blow out with my first pick.  Bala Ged Thief can help me beat slower decks by stripping their hand of relevant cards.

Pack 1 pick 3:
Oran-Rief Survivalist, Turntimber Basilisk, Kabira Crossroads, Mold Shambler, Trailblazer’s Boots, Disfigure, Spire Barrage, Highland Berserker, Kor Skyfisher, Plains, Bloodchief Ascension, Expedition Map, Whiplash Trap

I could have gone with any of the two drop creatures here or Bloodchief Ascension.  Of the four cards I didn’t take, I like Survivalist the most, and Skyfisher is the hardest for me to deal with.

Pack 1 pick 4:
Grim Discovery, Cancel, Plains, Pillarfield Ox, Beast Hunt, Kor Aeronaut, Landbind Ritual, Primal Bellow, Ruinous Minotaur, Stonework Puma, Demolish, Noble Vestige

This could have been Kor Aeronaut, but going with a double-white card here after passing Lynx and Skyfisher would have been suicide for my draft.

Pack 1 pick 5:
Grim Discovery, Shoal Serpent, Spidersilk Net, Kor Outfitter, Baloth Cage Trap, Spell Pierce, Brave the Elements, Bog Tatters, Sunspring Expedition, Goblin Ruinblaster, Swamp

I hadn’t picked a second color yet, and haste is good.  This could have been the ersatz Beast Attack (and probably should have been in hindsight).

Pack 1 pick 6:
Blood Seeker, Carnage Altar (FOIL), Nissa’s Chosen, Quest for Pure Flame, Kor Sanctifiers, Crypt Ripper, Ondu Cleric, Narrow Escape, Forest, Spreading Seas

Haste is still good, and the only other playables at this point are a hard to cast Nissa’s Chosen and Kor Sanctifiers, and I was still determined to avoid the fight over plains.

Pack 1 pick 7:
Ondu Cleric, Hagra Crocodile, Carnage Altar, Spreading Seas, Swamp, Hagra Diabolist, Hedron Scrabbler, Savage Silhouette, Seismic Shudder

Ally, check.  Strong effect, check.  Black, check.  Only other choices here are the two Landfall critters, neither of which I like as much as the Diabolist.

Pack 1 pick 8:
Trapmaker’s Snare, Joraga Bard, Brave the Elements, Swamp, Soul Stair Expedition, Tempest Owl, Mindless Null, Sunspring Expedition

The Bard is a really strong defensive creature and that combined with his creature type put him in my pile.  This could have been Soul Stair Expedition.

The Rest of Pack 1:
Vampire’s Bite, Turntimber Grove, Whiplash Trap, Plains, Swamp, Forest, Swamp

Vampire’s Bite might make the cut.  The rest won’t, though.  Maybe one of those lands should have been a real card (Spell Pierce?).  Maybe.  I think there’s value in letting the person next to you know that you’d rather not play around in a color.

Pack 2 pick 1:
Gatekeeper of Malakir, Desecrated Earth, Steppe Lynx, Kraken Hatchling, Forest, Seismic Shudder, Turntimber Grove, Umara Raptor, Gigantiform, Caravan Hurda, Makindi Shieldmate, Vampire Lacerator, Torch Slinger, Æther Figment, Ravenous Trap

I took the card that wins games over Gatekeeper, Lacerator, and Umara Raptor.  I’m not aggressive enough for the Lacerator, and my only blue card to this point was Whiplash Trap.  I chose the bomb over the removal.

Pack 2 pick 2:
Tanglesap, Murasa Pyromancer, Territorial Baloth, Makindi Shieldmate, Spire Barrage, Kraken Hatchling, Lethargy Trap, Vampire Lacerator, Quest for Ancient Secrets, Soaring Seacliff, Forest, Desecrated Earth, Goblin Bushwhacker, Turntimber Ranger

Nice Allies.  With Crypt Ripper and Marsh Casualties in the stack, I didn’t want to commit to a double-red card, so I took the green Ally.  He’s pretty good too.

Pack 2 pick 3:
Into the Roil, Plated Geopede, Timbermaw Larva, Ruinous Minotaur, Hideous End, Bold Defense, Heartstabber Mosquito, Summoner’s Bane, Forest, Unstable Footing, Oran-Rief Recluse, Explorer’s Scope, Soaring Seacliff

Sucks to ship along a Mosquito, but Hideous End will console me.

Pack 2 pick 4:
Tanglesap, Blood Seeker, Goblin Shortcutter, Makindi Shieldmate, Caller of Gales, Graypelt Refuge, Carnage Altar, Cliff Threader (FOIL), Kor Cartographer, Expedition Map, Lethargy Trap, Mountain

I was still toying around with the thought of being three-color Allies here, but if I’m going to do that, Shieldmate should have been the pick.  In reality, Blood Seeker is the most likely card I’d play out of this pack, and I don’t like him that much.

Pack 2 pick 5:
Giant Scorpion, Savage Silhouette, Adventuring Gear, Sejiri Refuge, Mountain, Reckless Scholar, Caller of Gales, Nissa’s Chosen, Cliff Threader, Cosi’s Trickster, Goblin War Paint

I’m not the landfall deck, and Nissa’s Chosen is too hard for me to cast.  Rock me like a hurricane, Scorpion.

Pack 2 pick 6:
Molten Ravager, Spidersilk Net, Soul Stair Expedition, Lullmage Mentor, Blazing Torch, Khalni Heart Expedition, Mire Blight, Welkin Tern, Tempest Owl, Island

This could (should?) have been Blazing Torch.  I figured I’d have enough removal that the Torch wouldn’t make the cut and Soul Stair was definitely making the cut in my creature light, Ally heavy deck.

Pack 2 pick 7:
Cancel, Bog Tatters, Shieldmate’s Blessing, Landbind Ritual, Zendikar Farguide, Bold Defense, Swamp, Vines of Vastwood, Pillarfield Ox

I’m really not cold at all to Bog Tatters with a Casualties and Disfigure already.  Vines can be removal or counterspell.

Pack 2 pick 8:
Sky Ruin Drake, Kazandu Refuge, Island, Vines of Vastwood, Spire Barrage, Bold Defense, Mountain (FOIL), Spidersilk Net

Should have been Vines number two.

The Rest of Pack 2:
Kraken Hatchling, Goblin Bushwhacker, Timbermaw Larva, Lethargy Trap, Savage Silhouette, Mire Blight, Swamp

Pack 2 started out really well and solidified me in my second color, but I needed a couple more Allies and a few more playables in general.

Pack 3 pick 1:
Torch Slinger, Steppe Lynx, Shepherd of the Lost, Summoner’s Bane, Journey to Nowhere, Cliff Threader, Highland Berserker, Quest for the Gemblades, Luminarch Ascension, Oran-Rief Recluse, Ior Ruin Expedition, Grazing Gladehart, Piranha Marsh, Sky Ruin Drake, Plains

Oog.  Not the pack the green/black drafter wants to open.  Other options are Recluse, Berserker, and cutting Shepherd or Journey.

Pack 3 pick 2:
Nimana Sell-Sword, Trusty Machete, Seismic Shudder, Turntimber Grove, Tajuru Archer, Kor Skyfisher, Mind Sludge, Whiplash Trap, Piranha Marsh, Swamp, Vastwood Gorger, Desecrated Earth, Bladetusk Boar, Kraken Hatchling

Two Allies!  Mind Sludge!  Big Knife!  This pack is deep, but not deep enough for me to wheel one of the three cards I want out of it.  There’s an argument for Sell-Sword or Mind Sludge.  Much less so for Tajuru Archer.  But Big Knife is Big Knife.

Pack 3 pick 3:
Plains, Mindless Null, Sunspring Expedition, Demolish, Needlebite Trap, Joraga Bard, Hellfire Mongrel, Summoning Trap, Shatterskull Giant, Cancel, Noble Vestige, Into the Roil, Hideous End

That’s a good card to double up on.

Pack 3 pick 4:
Ior Ruin Expedition, Giant Scorpion, Marsh Casualties, Vines of Vastwood, Ruinous Minotaur, Kazandu Refuge, Magma Rift (FOIL), Paralyzing Grasp, Forest, Stonework Puma, Pillarfield Ox, Gomazoa

That’s a better card to double up on.  Can I get the Pumas and Scorps to show up in other packs?

Pack 3 pick 5:
Jwar Isle Refuge, Goblin Bushwhacker, Hagra Crocodile, Makindi Shieldmate, Cliff Threader, Swamp, Mold Shambler, Spreading Seas, Ondu Cleric, Merfolk Wayfinder, Kor Duelist

Two Allies of the wrong color and two four-drops.  Shambler’s obviously better as I have no way to make Crocodile into a fireball.

Pack 3 pick 6:
Soul Stair Expedition, Crypt Ripper, Shieldmate’s Blessing, Shoal Serpent, Grim Discovery, Living Tsunami, Runeflare Trap, Island, Beast Hunt, Soaring Seacliff

This could have been Living Tsunami if I was vindictive, but I needed playables for my deck.

Pack 3 pick 7:
Mire Blight, Sunspring Expedition, Vastwood Gorger, Joraga Bard, Plains, Scythe Tiger, Forest (FOIL), Shoal Serpent, Quest for Ancient Secrets

I like this guy a lot.  He blocks forever and the vigilance in some Ally decks is relevant.  This isn’t going to be that deck, though.

Pack 3 pick 8:
Spreading Seas, Ondu Cleric, Makindi Shieldmate, Cobra Trap, Forest, Lethargy Trap, Soaring Seacliff, Runeflare Trap

I’m not excited about Cobra Trap, and I can’t get around all these walls.

The Rest of Pack 3:
Steppe Lynx, Turntimber Grove, Mindless Null, Gomazoa, Spreading Seas, Soaring Seacliff, Plains
