Geek Adventures: Magic The Gathering 2015 Pre-Release Event @ Magic Stronghold


Me and my friends had to go check out the Midnight Pre-release event at Magic Stronghold this past weekend! The new set of MTG2015 had fantastic re-prints rares, and new rare cards that we wanted to get our hands on.

As a huge Magic The Gathering player myself, I had to check out the event, and I haven't gone to a Pre-Release since Lorwyn block and back then, the pre-releases weren't as popular as now, but back then, MTG didn't really have much of a business plan to see how their products would expand.

This pre-release event was a Sealed event, and choosing 1 colour for 1 promo card. Each colour had different promo cards. This was the box they gave us for the starter deck. 5 booster packs, and 1 promo booster pack.


Yes, I chose White, and got Resolute Archangel. In the box we also got a special promo card that has special rules to play against Garruk, The Slayer promo card. 

It's a new way of playing your sealed deck against Garruk. Something special that Wizard of the Coast invented, and it's kinda fun when you have downtime during your matches. There was also a LARGE 8 feet standee in the store which had an axe. Knowing me, I had to take a picture with it, because it would be hilarious, and so I did.

I defeated Garruk with his axe and with my creatures! I am the better Planeswalker!! TAKE THAT!!
I had a fantastic time at the MTG 2015 Pre-release event, and I will be going to more in the coming future! I have a huge book to trade cards, so drop me a message on Twitter if you want to trade~!!
