Saturday prerelease p1!

Played BG this morning with a completely colorless top end. My goal was to be a bit removal heavy until Thrumming Hivepool was online.

A bit of a writeup in the reply.

Friday Prerelease decks!

Found some free time between the two events today to eat and more importantly post yesterday’s decklists.

First event I played RGW and RG in the second event.

Both events I went 2-1 with the loss in the last round.

Pictures from last night's 3-0 draft as well as pulls from prize packs!

My winning play for the 3-0 was pretty awesome. Aerith Rescue Mission, tapping their board, followed by Unexpected Requesting their largest creature, which allowed me to equip a Warrior's Sword for exactly lethal.

After a three week mathematics research trip, I finally got to get back into drafting #MTGxFinalFantasy!

Drafted an okay Dimir deck today. Went 2-1 after losing R1 to a strong Izzet deck.

Did not get to 1-shot anyone with Odin, but it was easy removal bait 😂

Looking forward to playing FNM!

While drafting I tried considering other colors, but I kept getting good Green cards that I couldn't help to pick. Didn't get any good evasion, but I think I got a lot of what Green likes to do in Magic.

Finally cracked open my prize packs from #MTGxFinalFantasy prerelease with @quela-m.bsky.social tonight!

Some really great pulls such as Ancient Copper Dragon Showcase, Vivi Orniter, and Sephiroth, Fabled SOLDIER.

Pictures include all the cards I pulled (including from sealed) that are over $3.

G3 I had a little luck on my side, oppo missed a land drop a couple of times and never found Blue. Was able to control them out long enough while I put together a strong board state.

Very happy to go undefeated today for an additional 3 booster packs!

Just got back from #MTGxFinalFantasy prerelease Day 2! Tonight was a win-a-box. 8 participants so we planned to cut to top 4 after 3 rounds. I won the first two rounds to secure a spot in top 4. We decided to split the box, so I finished with 9 prize packs!

Will post details about my deck later.

Forgot to mention 😅

This was a successful 3-0 list for me! Very happy to receive four more FF packs alongside my sealed packs!

Given that Final Fantasy X was my favorite video game as a kid, it was only fitting for the Counter Blitz deck to be my first ever commander deck.

I'm looking forward to cracking this open, but first I have to find the right sleeves, any recommendations?

Shot of all my rares/mythics as well as foils and borderless cards.

Any thoughts on splashing Black to add Cecil?

In celebration of passing my PhD defense yesterday, I participated in my first prerelease since Return to Ravnica last night.

I played an equipment focused Boros deck that used several of the new Job select cards. Let me know what you think!

My WUBRG Wednesday pick will have to be this versatile value pick. One of the first Un-Cards I saw in my first cube draft ever.
