revolting... seriously revolting.
I opened a nice promo of Paradox Engine, also pulled an Aetherworks Marvel.
That ends any highlights of the event.
I had zero bombs, very little ramp/mana curve. No one color stood out to use. LOTS of middling artifacts. Very little Improvise matters to take advantage of all those artifacts. Plenty of artifacts that didn't help much. Basically a perfect "crap pre-release" storm. Roll that voilation of cracking good cards, my deck would just throw endless lands at me. I put in 17 lands, even had a 42 card deck. Still, I would out pace the other player, every, single, game, on lands. Not what you want to see.
The end results were such that I went 0-2 and drop. I lost to a dude who was practically new to Magic. The other guy I played got a Masterpiece and a Exquisite Archangel. In terms of sealed amazing, he had it. I was the unfortunate schmo who played him. I adjusted my deck some, played him for grins and rolled him.
Anywho- the set is interesting... and I think in a limited format is is pretty good. However, I doubt I will be buying much sealed product of it.
