Since Theros was announced, I was pretty excited about it. Greek mythology, magic, new abilities to the game and as the set was released, it excited me that monoplay came back.
I did 3 prereleases and got {Ashiok} & {Thoughtseize}, {Whip of Erebos}, {Fleecemane lion}, and 2 of the temples, and the {Shrine of nyx} and 3 {sylvan carytatid}
Last night did a draft and drafted terribly with the new set and basically had a slow slow death. Pulled crap other than 2 temples.
Bought a fat pack after the draft and got an ok pull, nothing as great as before....
Clearly I've spent a bit so far...I was really not wanting to buy a box....and my LGs wouldn't want a box for my Tarmogoyf so I went to another store. They gave me 87.00 for the Goyf. I got a box for 105. So already saved me $90 on the box with the Goyf. I got that for $10 :)
I always seek to pull a set from a box or nearly the whole set and this box was definitely the best box I've opened. Minimal duplicates
Now the pulls for TLDR
{Thassa}
{Purphorous}
{Nylea}
{Heliod}
Funny story while pulling: pulled Purphorous and then said outloud "C'mon gimme another a God....oh...whoa Nylea!"
Foil {Temple of Mystery}
Foil {Firedrinker Satyr}
{Bow of nylea}
{Sylvan caryatid}
{cerebus}
{prophet of krayfish}
All tokens and emblems
Need less than 20 cards for full set. And I already preordered Elspeth at $28!
For a $26 box. Not so bad eh?
Got quite a few great Uncommons also, several dissolves and centaur battlemasters!
Had to save 1000th post for a good one :)
Periphery of krayfish is my favorite card from theros lol... :)
Maaaan, I would have given you 90 for that Goyf!
I was trying to sell the Goyf for months and most people would low ball me for cash and I didn't want to trade it. So the box trade was awesome :)
Poor goyfy, I wouldve given you $$$ if I didn't have my set. Grats on the sweet pulls!
Yeah, I would have given you $100 for the goyf. Grays on the good pulls though.
