M11 Pre-Release

~
At the last moment, we were able to slip out of a prior engagement and get out to the Magic 2011 Pre-Release tournament. We headed out to our local gaming store, OMG! Games and Collectibles to play the morning tournament. The Event format was four rounds of straight Swiss Sealed Deck where each participant received six packs of M11 to build a 40-card minimum deck. We dropped after the third round to head home to provide you this post and to be alone with our new awesome cards. Don't forget to check out our M11 Spoilers HERE (text) and HERE (visual).

Let's get to the video now ->
