I'm getting ready to play in my first sealed event type stuff this Sunday in Indy. I've only played in local drafts really and typically I do pretty well running green/red aggro or red/white speed when I draft. Any suggestions on what is winning though right now?

If it's sealed, just make sure your deck is as proactive as possible unless you are just given a blatantly powerful durdle pool, i.e. multiple barter in bloods, homicidal seclusion, etc.

As far as drafting goes, don't overthink it. Every 5k draft open event I've done I've managed to make top 8 because most people don't actually have a clue when it comes to drafting. Keep a mental tab of your mana curve, pay attention to what bomby cards you are passing, and keep note of what bomby cards are getting passed to you.

My advice...see if Jeremy Dombek is there, if so, steal his cards.

...and return them to all the people he stole them from. I hate seeing that dirtbag.

of course...that's what I meant. Thanks for finishing my thought.
