There's a pre-release for this product? That seems strange

[–] MysticKetchup@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Yeah, especially given how many releases we've had in the second half of 2024

I mean, Prerelease is a great way for new players to dip their feet into any form of structured play. No one is walking in with a fine-tuned constructed deck; everyone is left to the whim of their card pool. Sure, it's tough to build a cohesive deck, but the included leaflet mentions 17 lands and a modest mana curve, and I think it talks about sticking to 2 colors if possible?

I'll probably try and use this release as an attempt to get my cousins (who have been dabbling in Commander and at-home prereleases) into LGS events.
