Chose blue. Got 6th with u/g deck.  {Shipbreaker Kraken} was an absolute beast each time I played him. Got  {Thoughtseize} and  {Xenagos, the Reveler} in my 2 prize packs. Absolutely stoked!

Thetrufflehunter

Got 4th with {R}{W}. Opened 5 playable rares, no mythics. ({celestial archon}, {gift of immortality}, {soldier of the pantheon}, {anger the gods}, and {fabled hero}. I once played {flamespeaker adept}, next turn {spark jolt} x2 and {titan's strength}. Swing with an 11/4 first strike.

Does anyone have a favorite card they pulled?

My top two favorites are;
'Curse of the swine' it's a X colorless and two island mana drop.
The ability is: Exile X target creatures. For each creature exiled this way, its controller puts a 2/2 green boat creature onto the battlefield.

Isn't that silly? So, say your playing a green beast deck and your opponent has like three 6/6+ creatures? Nah man, their pigs now.

There is also a one drop colorless unicorn (Thats right, UNICORN!!) that you can tap for one colorless mana, pretty neat.

And a 'Horse Fish' creature type..... Not Seahorse.... 'Horse Fish'.... Wtf?

(Those aren't my most powerful cards I got (Although I didn't get any Gods, *Sheds a tear*.) But the cards I got a big kick out of.)
Boat tokens? 0.o

I want all teh boat tokens!

whopps! I meant BOAR also the unicorn is a three drop! My bad!

Thetrufflehunter

I opened a boar token, then asked the judge if that means I automatically get 1st place (that's a lie, although I did ask the people sitting near me).

Steerpike

{Bident of Thassa} and {Prognostic Sphinx} made for some incredible deck management.

And pulled 2 {Thoughtseize} so I'm happy

Pulled an ASHIOK! MY LIFE IS COMPLETE! :DDDDDD

I played azorious heroic flyers, orzhov heroic, an esper control. The last one was amazing; two {hero's downfall}, three {mnemonic wall}s, and {elspeth, sun's champion}. The deck was basically stall and draw till I get elspeth with frost tap effects and bleeding effects along the way.

Mattao19

Played BUG control at the midnight release went 2-3, and Esper today went 3-2 (came in 8th! Pulled an Ashiok!! Which won me all 3 matches lol

Got a  {Fleecemane Lion} in the prize pool then traded  {Ashiok, Nightmare Weaver} for a  {Scavenging Ooze} (took a $5 hit but Ashiok will go down and I need my Scoozey!!)

Gorzo

Pig tokens are adorable :D

Had a lot of fun this weekend. Didn't do as well as I'd hoped, but I played good people and had a great time, so I have nothing to complain about :)

Friday at midnight I went Black. My seeded pack was generous and gave me the God, so I was pretty happy. Splashed in some red for magma jet and 2 rages. Ended up 3-2-1 after 6 matches, and got a single pity pack for a prize...containing the red God, which made me feel like a winner.

Saturday my path was Red. Pulled Nylea, the green God, and ended up with a pretty decent Gruul deck. Also pulled a Thoughtsieze and a foil whip, but couldn't play black. Ended up 4-2, though (got beat in two real nail-biters, great matches) and ended up with 2 generous pity packs again. Scry land + foil arbor colossus, and the w/b mythic that exiles stuff when it both enters and dies.

Tonight, path was blue. I played Gruul again, because my blue was garbage, my red was insane, and green was full of tricks. Ended up 3/2, sadly, but one of my losses was to my friend who ended up in 1st, so feel better about it :P 3 pity packs this time - junk, junk, and a second red god.

I am the master of the pity packs.

I felt like a real winner about it, too, until my friend who came in first opened Xenagos + foil Daxos in one pack, then in the very next pack, another Xenagos.
