I wasn’t sure what to think when the draft ended. I have rarely drafted the Raid Bombardment aggro deck, so I wasn’t 100% confident with how I was valuing cards. At worst, my deck does do a lot of dome-ing…there are a lot of Spawn producers, and 3x Raid Bombardments….

Round 1 v Ru

Game 1 – on the play. His turn 2 Siege Runner got Spawning Breath’ed, Kozilek’s Predator came down on 3, and the dome’ing began. He chumped with Arsonist just to kill a Spawn, and on the next turn, Heat Ray’ed the Predator. Now, I played a Raid Bombardment, and started drawing lands. Then I drew a Bramblesnap, which would begin fighting his Battle Rampart. I dome’d, and got in for damage with Bombardment. He played Akrom Battleslinger, trying to kill the Bramblesnap, but I had the 2nd Spawning Breath for the blowout. He played a Skittering Invasion and Renegade Doppleganger, and Bramblesnap kept dome’ing. I drew Brood Birthing, which started making my Bramblesnap very large. One Regress later, he eventually died.

Game 2

Curved Goblin Tunneler into Spawning Breath your Tunneler, into Battle-Rattle Shaman. Eldrazi Spawn token showed him where the beatings happen. Next turn, Shaman started 4’ing. He played a Pennon Blade, which did nothing, and he soon died.

Round 2 v BU

He started with Null Champion. It got Spawning Breath’ed and he got timewalked. I played a couple token makers, and 2 Raid Bombardments. His death came soon after.

Boarded in Explosive Revelation

He started with Null Champion again. I called for the Spawning Breath again, but didn’t get it. I played Goblin Tunneler, Raid Bombardment, and Nest Invader and started racing. Nest Invader traded with Pawn of Ulamog, and he used the Spawn to level Null Champion up to 3. I cast Explosive Revelation, Champion died, I drew Wildheart Invoker, and continued dome’ing. He was missing blue, and Kozilek’s Predator and Battle Rattle Shaman quickened the clock. He found an Island, but the best he could come up with was Hada Sky Patrol. I played Battle Rattle Shaman, and he got knocked down to 5. He didn’t do anything productive, and died.

Round 3 v BUw

Replays said that he had Linvala and levelers. We’ll see how this goes…

Opening hand was Raid Bombardment, Kozilek’s Predator, Battle Rattle Shaman, Might of the Masses and 3 lands. A little slow, but Might of the Masses seems really good in our deck. He played Null Champion and Escaped Null. I played Predator and Battle Rattle Shaman and traded with Escaped Null. He cast Distortion Strike on his level 2 Null Champion, so I took 5, untapped and Flame Slash’ed the Champion. He soon cast a Mnemonic Wall, with no target, and got Might’ed to the face.

Commence opponent complaints……..obviously

Game 2

He was missing U for most of the game. He started with just a Null Champion. I started with Kiln Fiend and Flame Slash on the Champion. Some trading occurred, and I ended up with a Battle Rattle Shaman with Boar Umbra and a Bramblesnap. He cast Consuming Vapors, I sac’ed the Bramblesnap, and untapped and played Predator, letting me sacrifice a token when he flashed Vapors back. All he had after that was an Ikhil Outrider and a Last Kiss, neither of which did anything productive. 7/5 Battle Rattle Shaman took it down. (More complaining….I guess they were the worst draws of the draft for him…..)

Took another one down. See you next time!
