RIX Planeswalker Decks

~
Happy Thursday MTG peeps,

Magic: the Gathering fans are heading to their local game stores this very weekend to participate in the Rivals of Ixalan PreRelease.  As anticipated, Wizards of the Coast posted the decklists for this set's Planeswalker decks, as many (ourselves included) love 'dueling' with these in between games at the event.  Back in our day, these were Intro Packs, and although the intention of this product is much the same - that is to introduce a new or returning player to Magic, there have been some rather decent improvements to highlight the set's theme and new keywords.  The lists published today look like good value for your money and appear to be relatively balanced to be played against eachother.

For a suggested retail price of 15 clams,Planeswalker Decks acquaint players who are interested in Magic with basic strategy, the game's settings, and characters, and include a sweet foil Planeswalker card.  Here's what's inside - 

Contents: 
• 1 Ready-to-play 60-card deck &foil premium PW card
• 2 Rivals of Ixalan booster packs
• 1 Strategy insert

• 1 Magic learn-to-play guide
