Garbage sealed pool

Drafted 6 dragon maze packs in a sealed release tourney at my LGS. Got tesya plasm capture beck and call flesh blood pontiff of blight renounce th guilds. Of course my pool was evenly scattered between all colors so I ended up having to play 4 colors(all but red). I hate having to go 4 but had no choice. Match 1 blood baron of vizkopa killed me. Match two mulligan to 5 on first game( 1 land til turn 5) dead. Game 2 mulligan to 6 then when I drew 6 all lands and a cluestone. Game 3 bye. Yay I wasted 5 hours of my life haha. On a brighter note I did get two shock lands!

Idk, it really depends on your commons and I commons. I've played a rareless sealed deck multiple times

I did get two putrefy but never saw them, that 3/2 hex proof flyer never saw it, unflinching courage, but not soon enough .. Oh well the experience was nice

In my booster draft I pulled 4 shock lands one of which was foiled even though I lost horrible because my other pulls were crap I still got a lot of trade fodder

Yes shock lands are beauties in sealed because they are always an extra rare! Congrats on getting 4 of them!

Holy crap!  I have 3 friends that got boxes of DGM and none of them pulled a single shock!

3 boxes? Like 3x36 packs? No shocks? That's insane

We just figured that it was damn near impossible to pull them haha

And yeah, 3 boxes

Man I feel bad, guess maybe they don't want to flood the market too bad or they will drop in value drastically

The odds of pulling a Shock are about 75% lower than that of pulling a Shock in RTR and GTC. Don't quote me on that, but it is extremely low.

The last thing I heard was that 1 out of every 22 packs (on average) had a shock in it.  I don't remember where I saw that, though, so I don't know how credible it is.

Well, I pulled 2 shocks from a box. Ones I had from GTC already :|

So there's some info for the database.

You think that is bad? I opened 56 packs of RtR before I got my first shock from that set. I have opened 85 packs of Gatecrash and still have not opened a single shock.

Uhh I don't think your allowed shocks then think of it as a handicap of sorts maybe?

Might as well just buy them @ 15$ a pop lol
