Blue/White enchantments took me 2-0 all 4 rounds thanks to hero of Iroas, a majority of bestow creatures, flying auras with card draw and a spear of Heliod.

0-2 then dropped
Awful pack pulls, went green. Splashed a lil white. Just had really bad pulls with limited resources other than 2/2s. Pulled an Erebos but no black...

Hope 2hg on Sunday is better

Went 3-1 at mine and I pulled a Brimaz and an {Eidolon of Countless Battles}...they went rather well together...

I ended up losing to a guy with 2 elspeths

How in the FRENCH do people get lucky enough to pull 1, much less 2 Elspeths!? Sorry man, that sucks :/

Picked blue and went 2-2. My pulls were epically horrible!! My "seeded blue" pack was half not blue and my rare was {mindreaver}. Went blue/white because those were the only colors I had enough cards to play with. It is so disappointing to play sealed, knowing that the guy with Brimaz AND Elspeth is just gonna face roll his way to victory. I'm getting over sealed because I have such horrible luck.

I ended up undefeated. I had some decent matchups to help me. I signed up for white, and had a total of 10 white cards in the entire pull for me to play with. Of those, three were creatures. I ended up playing B/R which seemed to be a crowd favorite at the shop. I ended up with a total of 7 BNG Packs at the end of the night, highest value was 2.50.

Luckily I had just won FNM which was $35 store credit so it paid for the prerelease and left me some extra. Free tournament and cards isn't bad.

Weather here is horrible. Streets are covered in ice. My car is in the front yard. All this means no prerelease for me. Good luck to all of you.

What was the color of box that you got for red white?

I picked white. Because brimaZ

Post by: Caboaddict on February 01, 2014, 03:59:13 PM
I picked white hoping for brimaz or ephara and got neither.

Played GW thanks to bow of nylea, hero of iroas, and sylvan caryatid. Ended up 4-2. My 7 cost promo was pretty awesome and won me many games. Lost to gruel deck simply because I didn't have enough big creatures. And to orizhov because he destroyed all my flying counters and he had an insatiable harpy.

Ended up with 5 booster packs and nothing but crappy rares.

Although chose black for tonight, I might switch to red or green.

Got nine but it still was poo. I'll post my list and pulls later

You guys realize you cant pull brima in the seed pack right? The only possible mythics in that seed pak are gods of your color.
Title: Re: Undefeated
Post by: Arzair on February 01, 2014, 05:13:38 PM
4-1 with GU tempo.  {Kiora, the Crashing Wave} certainly helped... But eventually lost to elspeth, because it's elspeth... And because my 3  {Nullify} don't hit PW's haha

I have uploaded my deck to my decks it's the one l created with a little help from other players, had good feed back on it too. If you have any suggestion on what cards to had to improve and to become a 60 card deck reply here or pm me

Picked red for my most successful one. Pulled no mythics, but I made quite the U/R deck. It had 8 counter spells, 3 grip tide, and some really nice tempo. Came first with 6-0, and won a box.

Finally made it out of the house and to the LGS today. Went 2-2 and walked out with 2 prize packs. I did not pull anything spectacular. I went black, but played R/W.  Someone else pulled 3 gods in their packs; not including prize packs.  And I pulled my  seventh {Hundred-Handed One} today.

3-3 with {W} {G} heroic.

Then

2-2 two headed giant with {W} {R} and {B} {U}.

No good pulls. 😫

Post by: gtfotis on February 03, 2014, 03:58:37 AM
I ran with a janky {R}{B} deck with a bunch of {fall of the hammer} and {felhide spirit binder} which are amazing cards in limited! Went 2-1-1 though :(

Pulled absolute garbage in every pack I opened!

Post by: Kaleo42 on February 03, 2014, 04:33:01 AM
3-1 in 2HG. Lost the last round to me going 20 cards deep in a 40 card deck only having 4 lands...the 4 from my openning hand.
