Well, needless to say, I had fun this weekend. So, as I stated in my previous blog (if indeed these count as blogs), I'm gonna write about it.

First, I should mention that I had work the previous night, and that I had no time to get a nap in before the first prerelease. So, I ended up staying up for over 24 hours. The two "naps" I did have, I'm not sure I was ever asleep. But they were resting enough, whatever they were.

Anyways, the first prerelease event: Local store. I chose to go with the guild I picked for my Planeswalker Points thing, which is Golgari. And luckily, I ended up opening enough stuff to make a decent Golgari deck. Among other rares which weren't as useful (either because they weren't in Golgari colors or I never saw them during matches), I opened a [c]Lotleth Troll[/c] ...

Since I returned on the release of Avacyn Restored, I missed the pre-release. It in all honesty was never something that I was into. I didn't really understand the dynamics to it. Sealed was a little different back in the days. If I remember right, you got a starter box and then 3 boosters. That is what you ended up making your deck with. I think some things have changed in the format. Do not quote me on that though.

I ended up wanting to go to Grand Prix Columbus, which is a modern format. I started acquiring cards for this. Meanwhile, my better half was in the plans of making arrangements for our vacation. She happily attends my things when able, so I am ok with building my vacation around her needs. Turns out two things happened. First, I was unable to get the cards I needed in due

Here's the deck I ran at a draft at the local Prerelease that took me to first place (in a rather fast but fun method). I had a hard time deciding what to cut to make it 40, so I ended up making it 45.

[deck]1x Cathars' Crusade
1x Archwing Dragon
1x Burn at the Stake
1x Cloudshift
1x Cathedral Sanctifier
1x Angelic Wall
1x Devout Chaplain
1x Thraben Valiant
2x Seraph of Dawn
2x Spectral Gateguards
6x Voice of the Provinces
1x Kessig Malcontents
1x Mad Prophet
1x Riot Ringleader
1x Thatcher Revolt
1x Vigilante Justice
2x Kruin Striker
2x Scroll of Avacyn
1x Seraph Sanctuary
10x Plains
7x Mountain[/deck]

The lowest life total anybody got me to was 1 life. All my rounds were won in 2.

The main combo I went with was to play cheap creatures for blockers, get my Crusade out, and drop a Voice stacking the triggers so...

in New Tazewell, Tennessee will be having TWO events featuring the Helvault on April 28 2012!

Call (707)PWR-PLAY for more info.

 

It was a truly awesome night guys, Thank you.  So all that is left now is Friday,  WOOHOO

Don't forget on Friday and FRIDAY only Innistrad booster boxes are £20 off,  So for £109 you get 36 boosters.   I do know you can possibly get cheaper else where, and i wont blame you for doing so to be honest, but this is the best offer I can do. 

 

All hope you had a good night and got some nice shiny cards.

 

I can't thank you guys enough for being so awesome. So I wont bother anymore.
