Finally, it’s over.

I guess I should introduce myself first. I’m a magic player who mostly drafts, I took the break from magic almost everyone does from dissention to eventide, started drafting again with Shards/Shards/Shards, and I’m also @metaknightmare on twitter. When I started back up, I was terrible (I picked etherium sculptor over tower gargoyle once). However, eventually I became relatively good in the format, and usually ended up in the top 3 of drafts at my nearby store. I haven’t made the investment to fully get back into constructed yet, but I plan on it after my finals this year. After Shards/Alara/Reborn became M10, I started winning even more. These two formats were ones I understood, ones I could draft well, and ones I could win with.
