Dont pay LGS prices for Dual Decks. Walmart and Target are selling this thing for MSRP, $19.99.

I know StarCity, and other online MtG sites had preorders for $30+

AHHH, I have forgotten about that! I'm so sorry about that. Last year of college has begun, and I got a last minute job on campus teaching a fluid mechanics lab. Needless to say, I'm swamped. :(

HOWEVER! I'm going to the Magic celebration tomorrow... Maybe you are too? I think it starts at 3, maybe 2... Blah

Edit: FTV being 85 here made me pretty sad... It's a good deal, but I just don't have that kinda money. Rather buy RtR box :)

Anyone else here finding Golgari kicking' Izzet butts? I've played both sides and it's hard to beat golgari.
Title: Re: New duel decks
Post by: Juggalonoke on September 08, 2012, 01:14:11 AM
Holy crap! Played both decks all day long with a buddy and by far the golgari deck is so much more powerful my buddy got the decks as well and he hated the golgari deck do he traded the entire deck to me for like 10 bucks in junk rares 😝😝 I love it combined both to make an AWSOME dredge deck with the cards

I almost want to go back to get a few more. There are some cards I can use in other decks.

Seriously love the dredge concept. I think the Golgari deck is superior overall. I can't wait to try them out Tuesday.

Wow these cards are amazing. Seems better than other duel decks

Well I am not loving the izzet's tendency to lose. Anybody have some ideas? I'm new to the guild. I feel like the deck needs fewer critters. I used {Nivix, Arie of the Firemind}
Like 5 times and lost cards and mana because Nooo instant/sorceries.

Title: Re: New duel decks
Post by: Quackmaster5 on September 09, 2012, 02:45:08 PM
So if I can get it for $20, is it worth it?
Title: Re: New duel decks
Post by: Rass on September 09, 2012, 02:49:02 PM
Depends. Was worth it to me because I didn't have 95% of those cards. Also I like to have these decks to help teach people. If I had all of these cards and not extra cash then I wouldn't buy it.

It's fun. Just don't modify it. They're tuned pretty well to face each other. The problem is Golgari is able to pump their creatures up so much that "deal 2 damage to target creature" can't really remove them.
Title: Re: New duel decks
Post by: Quackmaster5 on September 09, 2012, 05:15:40 PM
So I think I've been given a sign.

I have checked 3 targets and 2 walmarts and NONE of them have the duel decks.

I'm so pissed. But I guess maybe I should wait til after RTR drops and I see how much I have left. I just don't want it to become a rare item and then shoot up in price, you know? And I'm sure my lgs has it, but I ain't paying over 25 bucks for it. And they overprice everything there.
