What's your ideal first hand?

This didn't really fit anywhere else on the board.


What 8 cards (or less if you can't think of a full 8) would you love to draw on your first turn of a game?  I'll post mine later on after a few others have had their say.

It all depends on what deck you're using :P

SoG
NJ
GoYS
Burial
Jacob
Captain
2 Other Cards:)

Draw three lost souls... Which probably will mean that i will probably choose for my opponent to go first. i have three dominants for three lost souls, guardian for protection, and not many people could block Jacob+Captain until they get set up.  It would be nice to have a four lost soul cushion:)

Depending on my deck, I might want to take out all my cards that aren't demons, plus TGoH. Any other combo that needs setting up would be good to have all the cards for in the first hand.

There's already a thread on this... we all decided that Hur was an excellent choice.  ;D

I used to get Miriam out against my one friend's egyptian defense deck every game we played, that was pretty awesome. :O

I don't really have a preffered hand, but there are cards I hate getting. For example, it seems like every game I play I draw the lost soul that sets a hero aside on my first turn. :'(

I am not talking about T2 unless I am explicitly talking about T2. Also Mayhem is fine now somehow!

That would be a devastating first hand.

Follow that up with a temple, Lampstand, and your Generous widow (after Davids harp) and then the Harp becomes virtually untouchable until you clear them out.
