I went pack crazy today

RevanJJ · August 15, 2012, 03:22:40 PM

Got about 15 packs from different sets. I got the first two Planeswalkers I've ever had: {Ajani, Caller of the Pride} and {Gideon Jura} !

I have two white decks, one human soldier one that is a token producer and one knight deck that uses a lot of indestructiblity. Which do you think I should put each Planeswalker in?

I will be updating my page and TB (when we are able to do so) with a ton of rares and uncommons. And no, not the planeswalkers, lol.

Just a suggestion and I know it's hard to do but if you bought 15 packs you could have spent $20 and got a box if you paid full price for the packs. But good luck with what you get in those packs. My boxes have sucked lately, well so have my packs I'm just unlucky since AVR

Based on the fact that he pulled Gideon, he found some out of circulation packs. So buying them probably was a good investment to get some cards he doesn't normally see. My seller has time spiral tournament packs for 12 bucks. I pick one up everytime I see him bc you can't find those anywhere and time spiral had some good rares.

Yeah I'm kinda in the backwoods. My options are order on amazon or hunt down packs.
Got {Gilded Lotus} , {Ajani, Caller of the Pride}, {Gideon Jura}, {Master of the Pearl Trident}, actually a lot of decent rares. Was more about the fun I suppose of opening packs and yeah I got a few scars of mirrodin, a few Innistrad, a few avacyn, 2 M12, and 4 M13

If you read my post I said just a suggestion. I had no clue what he was buying so I figured I would mention it. He can take it with a grain of salt. I didn't say wow dumb 🐴 you got ripped. I know when I first got back into buying cards people helped me out with the variety pack. I never knew what that was.

Haha I try to stay away from the card isle in Walmart because I always think maybe I should get a fat pack. Then once I bought the last five pack they had out once.

RevanJJ · August 15, 2012, 10:17:25 PM

Walmart is where I did my damage lol. Those 10.95 packs with the Testradon foil in front were too tempting, and then I just grabbed a few of everything. Lol.

Are fat packs the best thing to get?

Rass · August 15, 2012, 10:25:25 PM

All depends on what your trying to get

Price per pack no

Need basic lands spin down two deck boxes (don't hold sleeves) and a 500 card storage box then yes.

I cracked two {jace, the mind sculptor}s from packs from Walmart. The first one one the night it was released. The second a few weeks later. The pack just spoke to me, saying, I have a jace pick me. So I did and sure enough there he was in all his splendor. 😭sadly I don't have them anymore.

The only jace that I have is the one that friend altered. Traded the rest.

Silent1236 · August 15, 2012, 10:59:26 PM

After watching my friend pull {Gisela, Blade of Goldnight}, {Bonfire of the Damned}, and {Temporaly Mastery} (when it was still worth a decent amount) and I pulled a {Bruna, Light of Alabaster}, I pretty much gave up on packs. I have the worst luck lol. Good to know people besides my friend can get awesome streaks like that!

RevanJJ · August 15, 2012, 11:03:11 PM

Walmart has been good to me

Last week bought one pack and got { Vampire Nocturnes}, then today these planeswalkers and just went through.,3 ther mythics and some pretty good rares and uncommons.

Hell...thinking of getting a Dark Ascension pack later to see if I can get that Getalf's Messenger I need lol
