The deck you drafted is very strong sans a few cards I would very rarely run. The 3 Grisly Spectacle and the abundance of low cost extort creatures you drafted make the deck very difficult to beat.
I have drafted Gatecrash extensively (read: 40+ 8-4s) and have won drafts with basically every archetype available. I tend to swing from one to the other depending on the week, and while I believe WB is very strong, it is one of my least favorite to draft. I think the best thing to draft in the current 8-4 environment is probably UB mill. It is severely under drafted at this moment and can have some ridiculous plays while still allowing you to play most of the good removal and card advantage (cipher is the shit). I have won about 50-60% of the 8-4s in which I have drafted that strategy.
I also think Simic is under-drafted and love the tricks you can play with evolve.
I think Boros is too over drafted to be a great
archetype right now, but certainly if you find WR to be open I would go for it.
