The first thing to note is that Jumpstart packs aren't
restricted by color identity in the same way as other casual formats. Though
this pack is Green, the multicolored aspect of Jorn, God of Winter is all
upside. It's a bonus level that we'll sometimes be able to access. It'll be
easier to cast the Rimestaff if our other pack is Blue or Black, but even if
not, we can cast Into the North and search for our prismatic land, Shimmerdrift
Vale, and gain the second color with Glittering Frost.



In point of fact, this pack has a slight ramp theme. Limited
decks rarely have a strict game plan, especially in Jumpstart when diluted by
another random pack. But we do have the two cards mentioned to accelerate us,
along with Centaur Omenreader, a curiously snow creature from Future Sight.
These ramp elements will allow us to quickly deploy our snow payoff, Conifer
Wurm, our evil snow plow, Phyrexian Snowcrusher, and our, er, Gargantuan
Gorilla.



Jumpstart packs will occasionally upgrade one of their
uncommons into a second rare. In this case, I'm not sure it's actually an
upgrade, but that too is fine. It's good for these packs to play a card or two
that's more silly than strong. Smashing your opponent's creatures against your
gorilla's chest will lead to memorable games, and that's what we're truly
seeking in casual. Apparently, this gorilla hates the cold of snow lands, so
much that he gains trample. That's a win-win for us, especially if we have Ram
Through.
