Journey First Impressions

I won my pre release. And it was a fun one. Picked black, had green as a secondary and splashed white. I built it accidentally, but a deck full of constellation creatures does business. A few times I was able to give all opponent creatures -2/-2 in a turn by just playing out permanents. The random bits of damage and life gain I kept eeking out through normal play really showed how powerful the BW deck can be in the new limited. I will try to brew up a standard BW enchantment deck and see if constellation and Ajani's Chosen together  can compete with the top tier decks.

Of all the new stuff, Dawnbringer Charioteers was the single most powerful card I saw all night. It just might have the oomph to be a constructed staple. In every game it was allowed to stick around, it just won on its own. Backed up with Gods Willing or Ajani's Presence, it is an unstoppable force. The only other card that caused me any issues was Godsend. It looks absurdly powerful, but actually doesn't do a whole lot on offence. You can still chump block all day. Where it shines is on defence, the ability to flat out exile your best threat makes combat math miserable. It is a fun draft card, but just that. It's mana costs are too much for standard.
