Ikoria pre-release (kits)

I was kinda looking forward to this pre-release. It is/was my birthday weekend. Kinda fun, planned to do it at least twice because of that. A certain virus sweeping the world kinda changed how magic happens in terms of the Gathering. *sigh*

The local store- Gamer-Corps, threw in a promo pack for anyone who pre-ordered. No clue how many people did that though.


I thought about filming the opening, but was too excited. I got too jittery. Too hyped.

My promo was General Kurdo of Drannith.  I turned to my kids to open a couple packs, and they had fun. Got an extended art Triome from one... so cool. Got an Obosh, the Preypiecer out of another. Meh.

Then I opened insanity.


In one pack I got a Narset of the Ancient Way, and a foil Winota, Joiner of Forces. Both mythic. Winota can be super CRAZY... ugh.


Then the insanity kept coming. The Inspired Ultimatum was meh.

But TWO more Triomes. One a base, and the other was an extended art foil. Yikes! And a Vadrok, Apex of Thunder mythic. These cards were all on color to play, mostly... I could have had an insane pre-release... but again, a certain virus had other plans.

Here is the class photo complete with the blah Promo pack results on the lower right.

I picked up another pre-release kit on Sunday to help celebrate the birthday fun. The store threw in another promo pack, which was awesome! And also good because my pre-release kit SUCKED. I mean sucked. 
However, the promo pack was CRAZY good. See below:

A foil promo pack of both Fiend Artisan and Hydroid Krasis in the same promo pack. CRAZY!!!!
I might keep both just because.
