Type 4 Question of the day

8 powerful cards came up in a draft this week, what would you pick? In what order would you expect the rest to go? Bear in mind the stack does not have Glarecaster or Nezumi Graverobber when considering T&N. I think the guy picked opportunity.

Opportunity is just so good it's hard to pass up. Aladdin's Ring is a powerful card in Type 4. Tooth and Nail can still be ridiculous even without Nezumi Graverobber and/or Glarecaster. One word - Bosh.
I would be surprised if Opportunity wasn't the first pick here. It's so good in any deck. Tooth and Nail is probably the second pick because it's strong in both aggro and combo strategies. The Charm is good but not first-pick material. I would expect Armored Guardian to go third. You'll see Twincast last I think.

I generally always pick instants before I pick anything else, because in Type 4 unless you find a Veldaken Orrery, instants are gold... so yeah, from this pack, I would say Opportunity.

My stack has 4 Deflection effects AND Fork and Twincast, so I don't much like the prospect of casting Opportunity generally. Tooth and Nail is ridiculously powerful if you've got the stuff. Otherwise... depending on what's been drafted I may take Crosis's Charm or Twincast - especially Twincast if people are running around with powerful spells like Tooth, Opportunity and Time Stretch.

I'd be tempted just to take twincast since it trumps every card in that pile. Although if I was really being Spike I'd just take the Opportunity. Especially if you have a 200 or less card draft stack.
