Just got to say, you've definitely earned distinction as an MTGS hero

Because he's the hero MTGS deserves, and the one it needs right now. So we'll global him. Because he can take it. Because he's not just our hero. He's a silent guardian, a watchful protector. An expired rascal.

Hmmm.. So this is a bit more difficult. The cards that stand out to me are Gravecrawler, Brimstone Volley, Harrow, and Volraths Stronghold. I think Brimstone Volley is ok, just like any removal, but its not really a strong reason to move into that color. Harrow is good if we want to push into a 3-4 color control deck. Gravecrawler and Stronghold are on color, but represent strengthening different avenues of attack: the former being aggressive with the possibilities of building synergies between it and other picks; and the latter moving us towards a more controlling, grindy game that takes advantage of recurring strong etb effects. What are your thoughts? I dont think theres a "right" pick, its just more of a question as to which kind of deck do we want to build towards.
From your choices, I like Volrath's Stronghold better, exactly for the reasons you mentioned. But after seeing this pack, my thought is just to pick Izzet Signet and be done with with. It helps us with Mind Twist and it is our second signet very early in the draft, meaning we are know looking to draft an Upheaval/Wildfire/Burning of Xinye deck, artifact.dec, or even 4/5 color goodstuff.dec.
I would pick Izzet Signet here.
