I would realise I had opened two mythics and a dual land and be deliriously happy even if I went 0-6, which you wouldn't with a pool like this.

P.S. I haven't got time to post a full deck list but clearly this is an easy Boros aggro deck perhaps splashing black or green

-1 card but I'm in a rush. I think the council is great but we don't have the black cards to support BB in a T5 casting cost. I like the synergy between Treasury Thrull and Bloodrush since it gives you reusability every turn. Wight is good and I would probably MD in if I was playtesting but for now I think Boros augmented by Orzhov extort puts us in a good position. 3 Court Street Dens is pretty clutch; basically locks down a lot of their board for the mid-game, especially if you get two out there. I think the 5-drop for 2 2/2 vig is pretty good but again this was kinda thrown together.
Limited Guidelines:

5.0: I will take this card no matter what: Pack Rat
4.5: Bomb and/or splashable creature or removal: Aetherling
4.0: Excellent first pick first pack, will sway me into same colors: Advent of the Wurm
3.5: Excellent first pack pick two, will confirm colors or possibly sway into second color. Gaze of Granite
3.0: Good in-color addition, or splashable removal/creature: Ascended Lawmage
2.5: Solid pick in-color: Bronzebeak Moa
2.0: Creatures 10-16; removal 6-7. Haazda Snare Squad
1.5: My 23rd or 22nd card, depending on removal. Wake the Reflections )
1.0: 23rd card if I don't maindeck an additional land: Murmuring Phantasm
0.5: This card will sometimes be sideboarded in: Uncovered Clues
0.0: I will shred this card for counters: Possibility Storm

Skullcrack is **** in limited, especially sealed.

Anyways, I hate the art on keymaster rogue .  "Oh, I'm a secretive thief in blue, the color of intelligence, I should probably go shirtless!"

I'd build this + 16 basics:
1x Angelic Edict
2x Assault Griffin
1x Daring Skyjek
1x Debtor's Pulpit
2x Dutiful Thrull
1x Knight of Obligation
1x Knight Watch
1x Syndic of Tithes
1x Balustrade Spy
1x Basilica Screecher
1x Gateway Shade
1x Grisly Spectacle
1x Wight of Precinct Six
1x Executioner's Swing
1x Immortal Servitude
2x Kingpin's Pet
1x Obzedat, Ghost Council
1x Orzhov Charm
1x Treasury Thrull
2x Orzhov Guildgate

I don't have an egosig because I'd rather my ideas be judged on their merits than on mine.
