Don’t forget that this weekend is Prerelease weekend for Magic the Gathering Dominaria. I would imagine all FLGS that sell MtG and do FNM will be running Prerelease events this weekend. I know my FLGS The Hobbit Hole are running some. They still have places on some of them, except the Saturday 11am one that is sold out (luckily I have my ticket for that already).

The Prerelease kits are good value and even more so this time because there is going to be 2 promo cards in the kits this time. Plus stores can also sell booster boxes a week early thanks to WotC. Which I suspect is them trying to get in the good graces of the FLGS again after dropping the ball on one or two recent releases (Iconic Masters, Masters 25, Explorers of Ixalan come to mind). Each booster box while stocks last comes with the sweet promo legendary creature Firesong and Sunspeaker.

Plus I think the 2 Planeswalker decks will also be available this weekend too. And if I’m not mistaken these too come with a couple of booster packs.

So if you have no plans for the weekend I’d highly recommend attending a Prerelease event.

Math Trade Update

Well the algorithm did its job and none of my offers were taken, I was offered nothing. So it was a kind of a non-event, and a bit of a let down. Will I try again? Not sure, it’s rare that I get rid of a game from my collection. And when I do it’s usually in the run up to UKGE that I do it, with collection at the expo. That way I don’t have the hassle of postage etc. So those 3 items I put in the math trade will probably go up the week before UKGE along with my Star Wars: Destiny collection. But I’ll worry about all that nearer the time.
