GP Toronto: the follow up

In my previous post, I talked about how I got this hand in round 9 and was unsure whether to mulligan or not:



As suggested by Ryan Bogner, I took my decklist and generated 100 sample 6-card hands to see, on average, if what I would be mulliganing into would be better or worse than this hand. I went through each hand and decided if I would keep or mulligan, and then of the hands I would keep, I marked them as either better or worse than the original 7 (or they were inconclusive).

Here was my sealed pool:

Some thoughts on blocking

In this particular draft, this was my deck:


I thought this deck was pretty good. Certainly not elite, but it had enough good cards to win.
