Post/gloat over your best EMA opens. For me:
> Vindicate
> foil Chain Lightning
> Sinkhole
> Sensei's Divining Top
> Sneak Attack
> foil Deathrite Shaman
> Force of Will
Also found some pretty solid stuff in cards people threw away after drafts: Cabal Therapy, a playset of Rancors, a foil Night's Whisper, and an Ichorid.
Anyone pull that foil FoW?
Only opened one pack at the moment...
Got a balance.
Pre-ordered a box. Got a Force of Will, Natrual Order, and a Balance. Rorix Bladewing was my foil rare.

Every goddamn Friday someone references it now.
Thanks for opening boxes, I switched to buying singles.
I have enough bulk in boxes as it is.

Gee Bill, why does WotC let you open two foils?

Hell no, I just bought a handful of packs individually. So far my value to expenditure ratio is way positive thanks to that FoW.

>Braids, Cabal Minion
What the fuck did I do to deserve this shit?
Can't you get a proper playset of Force of Will for the price of a box?
Or two or three playsets of equally staple-like cards?
Like, what's the point of bragging when your box contents are actually worse than 4-12 singles. You certainly didn't extract more value from drafting it.
Oh neat. I just opened the last of my EMA packs.
Force, Wasteland, Sylvan Library, Chrome Mox, Natural Order.
My FLGS does EMA drafts for $35. I pack 1 pick 1'd a Wasteland, so that was a good start. Ended up with an Argothian Enchantress later on too, which I needed to get for a Sigarda EDH anyway.

I did well for $260 spent, and had a shitload of fun, will probably collect the full set and make a cube out of it.
