Draft Night

So, tonight we are drafting. I love to draft, mostly because I am not too bad at it.

We are drafting the funnest, and worst set to draft. DC’s worlds finest is a blast to draft, because in my experince if you see an insanity card you are picking it, whether you want to or not. Not only that, but it is a real challenge due to the chronic lack of 5 drops.

So, I have been thinking about the tactics and draft strategies that I can employ. Last time I drafted Worlds Finest, I drafted an outsiders/arkham inmates deck. This…wasn’t the best way to go about it. This time, I am going to narrow my thoughts down a little before I go into it, do a little research. So, off I go to the DocXmobile.

By looking at random punks I can give myself a reasonable idea of what is to come, and what may be a reasonable strategy.

My first thought is to try to go with Arkham Inmates/Gotham Knights as they both have uncommon search cards, and the Hook-Up to draw a lot of cards.

One that I would like to go with, is a Birds of a Feather style tactic. Drafting concealed characters with the pumps that rely on costs of resources.

Worlds Worstest/Insiders would be a nice tactic to go with. Draft a few of these then any really nice characters that come my way.

Arkham non adjacent could also be pretty nice, as they are all over statted, and there are reasonable support for them. Another nice thing about these are that there is little stunback in DWF which would make for interesting attacks.

Tonight I care not for my position, but I wan’t to draft a fun deck, and have reasonable notes for a draft report.

With this being the last week before the legend tournement, this may be the first and last time I get to test for it.

I have just got around to watching the Special Extended versions of the lord of the rings movies, and boy. It is worth it, now I have seen this, I doubt I can watch the regular movies again.
