MTG: Kaledesh set and Pre-release

[Vanbael]

My fellow planeswalking furs, Kaledesh is releasing in little more than a week (the weekend of the picnic to be precise) and I’m wondering who among is excited for this set.  A lot of new mechanics out there, Vehicles are a thing, Energy is a resource, and it looks like a few old planeswalkers have reared their heads in the story once again.

And also, who is going to a prerelease event next weekend? Rina and I are going to  the midnight session and we’ll be at the picnic the same day.  Anyone doing anything with the pre-release?  Just asking and getting a feel for everyone’s opinion of this. 🙂

I’m super excited for this release! If there is a midnight session going on somewhere I’ll go to it.

I’m excited as its a new plane that no one has seen before, but my favorite sets already came out. Innistrad was awesome.

Also, elesh might be there with a brutal army! I am not planning on going to the release though.

What happens at a pre release event? I’ve played Magic before, not terribly good at it but if I don’t need to have pre ordered a box I’ll go!

Pre-release events are basically a sealed event game mode. Everyone gets 6 booster packs (and a pre-release promo card in this case) and are to build 40 card decks out of them.  Its a fairly casual form since it is luck of the draw mostly.

This video taught me, and The Professor is good at explaining the strategy of building a Sealed Deck.
