Title: 1st Place Booster Draft Deck
Post by: Gabe on January 18, 2010, 11:43:08 AM
I was blessed to play in an 11 person draft at our District Tournament on Saturday.  We used FooF/Roa + Kings/Patriarchs + Womens + TexP.  This deck is pretty amazing for booster.  I had no problems rescuing a soul when there was one available.

50 Cards

Lost Souls

6 LS generic
1 Female LS

Sites/Forts
Patmos
Halah
Lion's Den
Rome

Good Multi
Sword of the Spirit
Coat of Many Colors

Blue
Reuben
Simeon
Zebulun
Hannah
Buying Grain
Reuben's Torn Clothes
Obedience of Noah (un)
Courage

Good Gold
Moses (wa)

Green
Nehemiah
Amos
Miriam (un)
Cov w/David
Benaiah Snatches a Spear
Provisions

Teal
Joshua the High Priest
Zechariah (Ps)
Phinehas' Spear
Guilt Offering
Sin Offering

White
Joseph
Enoch
Daniel
2 x Transfiguration

Evil Multi
Dance of Death
Expelling the Jews

Brown
Mocking Soldier (Ps)

Crimson
Nebuzaradan

Evil Gold
Emperor Claudius

Gray
Emperor Galba
Emperor Otho
Balaam
Leper
Men as Gods
Heavy Taxes
Bearing Bad News

Warriors Moses plus 2 x Transfiguration was amazing.  Coat of Many Colors on Josh the HP allowing me to use Courage was potentially "Transfig #3".  Coat of Many Colors on Joseph allowed me to play RTC and won me the 5th soul in round #2.  That's the first time I've ever seen Coat played on Joseph so that was pretty neat.  Two CTB, Obedience of Noah and Provisions, was really nice too.

I also drafted a Prophets Moses but he didn't make the final cut.

You getting that draft is like Bill Gates winning the lottery.   :laugh:

Wow. That is a crazy good draw.
Or a draft where the other 3 players at your table were all RLKs....or owed you a lot of money :)

I'm not sold on that. With TxP, I think we will see better draws more often.

Two were experienced drafters.  One was a "RLK", as in 14 year old brother who is somewhat new to Redemption.  It was his first draft but he still knew better than to pass me stuff like AoCp, Gomer, TSA (k), Mayhem and King Neb (TexP).

Speaking of Mayhem, this was his 3rd TexP pack and he's already opened a Grapes and Mayhem.  Some people have all the luck! :)

I opened the Moses (wa) and passed my 2 TexP cards to take it.  I knew Transfigs would make it around the table at least once because who would take those in a draft unless you got Moses?

Nice.... how many battles total did you win with transfiguration? Cause that would be VERY hard to stop in booster.
