Probably going to be attending a prerelease this weekend, any bombs I should be looking out for specifically?

Geth's Verdict is pretty amazing and Dismember too. Also some combo cards would be cool. Just trying to see if I overlooked anything when I went through the spoiler.

think black will be heavily drafted in 3x NPH with tons of removal at C/U

Blind Zealot (Intimidate helps get her threw and is a 2/2 body if anything)
Dismember
Grim Affliction (which is a disfigure since its adds the counter then proliferate)
Parasitic Implant (slow like zealot but cheap)
Geth's Verdict

and if needed
Enslave
Ichor Explosion

and the Rare
Life's Finale
Glistening Oil (not a fan of)

There's a lot more removal, and a lot more ways to deal with small creatures.

G/U Infect is pretty decent with the 1/4 flier guy with 3U: Proliferate. So is W/U skies, considering how many playable early walls there are. There's barely any good black infect cards in NPH so G/B infect isn't nearly as good (thankfully).

The Phyrexian mana guys are amazing and you should play any of the good ones even off-color. 3/1 first strike turn 2 is a massive play even when he has 1 toughness and is an artifact.

I think Apostle's Blessing is really underrated. It's a 1 colorless mana "win target combat" or "counter target spell targeting a creature you control".

Red has a load of removal spells too, as if it needed any more.

Red hasn't got *that* many. There's a bad pyroclasm and a 3 damage for 3 with proliferate. Gut Shot is good just because there's so many 1 toughness guys in the format, but it's basically a colorless spell.

Geths verdict is not that good in draft. There are alot of tokens and myrs in scars block. You will rarely get value out of it.

True, but its still an amazing piece of removal.

i must advise people to not trust the ratings on that site as it cannot be right 1/1 infect second pick???? geth's verdict 3.4 th pick no this is never correct. geth's verdict is like 8th pick at best and the 1/1 infect may be 6th but i am not sure as i have not drafted green infect in new set as of late.
