Also, the version described on that Wizards page is very different from the Winchester I'm used to.


Is it possible you're thinking of Winston draft?

Incinerate.
Those who fear the darkness have never seen what the light can do.

I've seen angels fall from blinding heights.
But you yourself are nothing so divine.
Just next in line.

This is a cross between Winston (for more than two people) and Rochester. I'm gonna try this next time I bring out my cube. Also, incinerate.
Grow old or die trying.

Pile 2 looks good to me with the Wrath and Mauler.

Pile one allows us to go control with Mana Leak or aggro with Molten Rain ,

Pile two allows us to go control with Wrath of God or aggro with Lightning Mauler (plus prevents the control player from getting Wrath).

Pile three has Keldon Marauders which is delicious in aggro.

Pile four has Consuming Vapors which is a very strong control card, and Slayers' Stronghold which is a very strong aggro card.


Pile one is weak in comparison to everything else.
Pile three doesn't net us as many cards and narrows are options more.
Pile two and four are simply amazing. I think I prefer pile two because the aggresive card is a creature, and you need creatures in an aggresive deck.

Pile 2: Wrath was too good to pass, and they also get a good creature in the deal. More cards!


PILE 1
Molten Rain
Sarcomancy
Mana Leak
Crystal Shard

PILE 2
Grand Coliseum

PILE 3
Keldon Marauders
Gatekeeper of Malakir

PILE 4

Apparently I'm the 'control player'. Pile 1 for me.

Oh man, I want vapours, but 3 solid bodies are a bit much for me to pass up.

Pile 3, but I want to be convinced on 4.
