I've only been to a single Magic event before, back in July of last year, which was a draft for the Baldur's Gate set, I believe? And this Sunday I'll be going to a sealed prerelease for this set and I'm excited but nervous! Getting to watch this video certainly is helpful, and I'll probably have to watch your other video on building a sealed deck, too!

Thanks a lot for the Guide. I played a kind of Grixis Midrange type of Deck at the Prerelease, and although I played 2-3, I had a lot of fun. Prerelease is and will propably always be one of my favourite Events when it comes to MtG, it's small scale, competetive but in a fun way and I get to meet new people. If you get the Chance, go to Prereleases, even though a lot of things about MtG changed in the last few years, I had as much fun today at the Wilds of Eldraine Prerelease as I had years ago at my first.

Pre-Released yesterday and had a great time, though, like LOTR, my deck ended up never using the set mechanics.

Hey Prof, great vid and a good opportunity to ask/suggest a future video. When making a 40 card deck, how do you cull it down to 40 cards. I've been playing sealed for years and this part still gives me and many newer players trouble. how do you work all the great cards you opened down to 23. knowing that each card more than that eats into the probability of hitting your bomb? how do you overcome the magical Christmas thinking of 3-for-1ing your opponent with this sick combat trick that synergizes with your deck so well, or just one more solid creature to fill your curve annndd that bit for a cheapy color fixer that you rationalize because it replaces itself. and so on until youve got 35 must haves, but dilute further to insure proper land ratios and boom, 56 card sealed deck.

Looking forward to tomorrow I can't get to understand Ashiok Anywyay. The static ability can't work here, so what's the line? Turn5 create the nightmares, and then get value by drawing? I mean it's good but, doesn't sound as bomb as say, that mythic dragon that lets you chain into a 4drop and immediately deal 6 in the air. Maybe it's just a slower yet very good card and I'm not good at evaluating it
@ApoEdvarg Жыл бұрын
On second thought, I understand that there's little pw removal, and at turn5 with 5 or 6 loyalty, it's very resilient. Still, it takes some time rather than outright close the game, right? Incremental value by drawing the extra card, maybe ending up decking the oppo, but I guess the point is, gumming up the board with the nightmares that can just grow and grow. I kinda see the point now, but still unexciting to me as a card/strategy
