Here we can discuss successful draft decks. We should have some guidelines so people don't post: "oh I got {angel of serenity} and won FNM 4-0."
So lets post up strategy, reasons for picking cards, even specific matches with skilled plays for the collective betterment of the community.
Last Friday I was fortunate enough to get my hands on 3 {Annihilating Fire}s, 2 {izzet staticaster}s, a {cyclonic rift}, and a couple of solid counterspells. Using Rakdos red creatures to attack, I kept my opponents on their toes, and with that izzet control I had the answer to every threat.
If I got both staticasters, I just won. Any 2 toughness creature or less was immediately downed, and anything with 5 toughness was then vulnerable to annihilating fire.
My attacker MVP would have to have been my 2 {Splatter Thug}s. what can I say? I love this nutjob! First strike is, in my opinion, one of the most important combat keywords out there, and this thug is essentially a 3/3 for 3 mana with it.
I hope to draft a deck this solid again tonight! Good luck tonight, all my fellow FNM drafters!
Ended up dropping after 3 rounds. My half of the pod wasn't playing red and I should have picked it up. I had 0 removal which is a recipe for disaster.
Junk - {lotleth troll} {deadbridge Goliath} a bunch of token making cards {conclave blessing} {Selesnya charm} {sluice way scorpion} {dreg mangler} a lot of decent cards but no removal. Got destroyed by rakdos unleashed. I was passed only 1 black removal spell {stab wound} which I passed for {dreg mangler}.
I play azorius crap (seriously 9 creatures in a sealed deck Lolz) went 4-1-1
I play decent Junk and go 1-2. I definitely made some mistakes. I threw away a 4 land Hand and mulled to 4 with 1 land. Then I keep a 4 land hand and top deck 7 STRAIGHT LANDS. I was irritated.
Played the enchantment deck today. Got three sphere of safetys, three ethereal armor and a bumch of other boss enchantments. 4-0'd easily.

No you didn't. If you can't read the first post don't post in here.
