Trophy from Secrets of Strixhaven

[u/Livid_Description838]

Woo! Just got my first draft trophy in MONTHS. After a few 3-3, 0-3 runs in SOS and HOB before, I’m proud to say pulled a trophy jamming B/G aggro.

I got the tip from another redditor who said they’d miss HOB quick draft, where they could easily jam B/G aggro, because the AI often skipped black in the pool. By the time I logged on SOS quick draft was up, but lo and behold the strategy still worked lol

Started off 0-2 and was really expecting to go 3-3 at best, but the lifegain combo worked out well. I got the sign posts for golgari: 2 [[pest mascot]] 2 [[bogwater lumaret]] an [[old-growth educator]] and [[moseo]] who came in clutch for my last 3 wins. being able to recur [[mindful biomancer]], [[thornfist striker]], and even the mascot at the end of the turn was CLUTCH.

The secret fav that pulled me out of the 0-2 hole was [[leech collector]]. collector plus lumaret is a nasty combo. 2 damage each turn for 1 black adds up fast.
