1.1 that's a very questionable pick. loyal pegasus is extremely luck-dependent card, especially if you're going second. both raised by the wolves and chorus of the tides are much better than it. kragma butcher is also an option to consider.
i think raised by the wolves is overrated, and i don' tlike chorus of the tides. it's either badly costed or has bad stats. at 4 for a 3/2, it dies to too much stuff. i only play it in green/blue decks with some form of acceleration.
i really dislike red in this format, but that's just me.
i like fast deck in theros draft, a quick enough start can put you in a strong position on just a couple turns. i'm not sure what you mean by luck dependent, if you're an aggressive deck and have another flyer out (white has a lot of those), you're good.
Oh, and one example, if you fall behind enough, you sometimes have to trade chorus of the tides with pegasi like that. which is shit.
it's a human, so it goes well with the other common pegasus that gives flying, retraction helix and the like help, and again, i was going for a quick deck1.2 unless you manage to pick up a couple of springleaf drums (fat chance), general is really bad. it's either chorus, kragma butcher or swordwise centaur here.
a turn 2 hypnotist can allow you to keep attacking without your opponent being able to block effectively for 2/3 turns. again, i was going for tempo.1.3 why do you hate choruses so much, man? it's clearly a better pick, especially given that you've seen zero stratus walks yet and, without couple of them, hypnotist isn't half as hot.
probably. it's a decent card getting there late, i was keeping a door open. probably a mistake.1.7 at this point, it seems like you've passed too much red to be considering going there. I dunno, maybe the right choice here is to hate on the eye gouge - with 2x skyguards, you don't want that shit floating around.
with 2 skyguards and the option of more heroic stuff to come, the combo of a heroic + a recurring enchantment is not too shabby.1.8 anyhow, if you were considering going red, should've picked up the brute here.
i've tried to play that card and the only time when it's useful is when you have a lot of ordeals1.10 dreamfinder seems like a better pick.
possibly, i was realizing that i didn't have as many flyers as i thought and wanted that out of the way2.6 from the viewpoint of hatedraft, revelry seems like a more dangerous card to your deck. mender is really slow, doesn't fly and you should race it easily. revelry, on the other hand, may break up some really fast tempo openings. well, at the moment you don't really have any targets for it, but you really want to pick 'em up in pack 3.
this is true2.11 same here - you're not going to play bounty and, at times, instant speed disenchants may cripple you.
as above3.1 & 3.2 - see, now your opponents got 2 more answers for these guys that they should've gotten.
i used to always play at least one, even more if i had wingsteeds and other heroic stuff so it wasn't a dead card.3.4 why no love for the last breath?
however by now i know my deck isn't going where i want it to go, and a fast start with that ordeal blows me out quite hard
i played 2 chimeras maindeck. with 6 maindeck instants/sorceries, they were consistently 3/3 and 4/3 in one case.3.5 eh, spellheart is almost impossible to build in your deck so hating it is kinda meh.
i already had one and only 3+1 heroic creatures (3 good, 1 quite pointless in this deck), and i was planning to play the other chimera already. played 3 mountains and was ok with the mana3.11 chosen really looked better here. especially since you've took deepwater hypnotist and god-favored general.
