This pool drew me very strongly to blue and black, with white and green being very unexciting. I did end up making a fair number of blue cuts though. The most painful was stealer of secrets, but the deck isn't very aggressive, it's light on removal, and it has no way to give the stealer any form of evasion. I see a lot of people using lobber crew, but I'm still not sold on that card. With three multicolored spells in my deck, it realistically only deals one point of damage every turn. That's great for some decks. This deck has a few pretty sick bombs though, so that point of damage isn't very relevant. Hover Barrier is better with its 2 points of extra toughness and the fact that it blocks fliers. There are 18 lands in this deck since there are quite a few mana symbol intensive early cards, and it's a three color deck. 

Other cards worth mentioning:
staticaster- This card is actually pretty good in combination with a leashed splatter thug. If I wasn't playing three colors it would have made the deck. Outside of that combo though, it does fairly little in this format.
Electrickery- I want this card to be good so badly. It looks good. Even the art is awesome. It's a really bad card in this format with so few x/1s that really matter. I would have loved it last block though.

R/B/u  I felt the pool was all about the red and both black and blue were more supporting colors.  I am a little iffy on playing Rakdos, Lord of Riots as he is super color intensive. Other than that I am fairly happy with the direction the deck is going.

Only like 3rd time ever doing a sealed deck, but I feel like the white/green in this pool would be under utalized with the bombs that Rakdos brings to the table, wanted to do something other than what everyone else was doing. Goal is to get Fencing Ace out, pump him on on some "performance enhancing" spells and push through the damage. Ethereal armor with the Urban Burgeoning in the deck make for a quick +3/+3, also the 2 Urban Burgeoning if possible can keep 2 mana open for  New Prahv Guildmage flying ability to either give a defender flying if you dont have  Hover Barrier out, or ensure you have mana for a pump spell so you wont have to trade a blocker. If games go longer than intended, Doorkeeper with other defenders can easily mill 2-3 per turn, with enough defense to stall until you can mill out your opponent. I feel like Sphere of Safety has a lot of potential for blunting the attack as well.

There is probably room to drop a land or 2 in favor of maybe Sphinx of the Chimes , but I like it the way it is.

the First thing i saw was that your Booms were in U/B/R so i then looked at what fixing we got as well as what removal is in the sealed. With only having two gates, I am alittle scared of the mana base, but with what blue brings to the table i like it and think it may be need
