i can stop throwing those guides in the trash i suppose. haven't picked up a fatpack in awhile but i can save them for ya when i do.On another note, how is it possible to be as bad/unlucky as i am when it comes to online drafting? I just don't understand. If i took every leonin arbiter and molten psyche i've opened i'd have 20 of each, not even lying. Like i think the gavaleer is a good card for crying out loud

Your best bet would be to ask Nderdog personally, I recall him talking about how he's doing prizes for his LGS. __________________ send ref checks, paypal payment or any questions to the email in my profile! Serra Angel Count: 224 Nightmare Count: 95

Some people are going to want to hold on to them as collector's items.edit: Bought some cards from Troll and Toad, and they came with (not in) a toploader in a toploader sleeve. No problem. Then I bought another card and it came with (not in) a toploader in a toploader sleeve. Now I can understand why it is cost effective and still "safe" to put a stack of cards next to a toploader, but when it's a single card and you put it next to the toploader and not inside, that's just lazy.

Prediction: Sword of Order and Chaos 3 Artifact - Equipment
Equipped creature gets +2/+2 and has protection from white and red. Whenever equipped creature deals combat damage to a player, put a +1/+1 counter on each other creature you control and ~this~ deals 3 damage to target creature that player controls. Equip 2

I think he meant that his LCS has/had a grip of the guides you're looking for. And what kind of city doesn't have at least 1 card shop? Philly has 1.5 and big events every month in the convention center! __________________ send ref checks, paypal payment or any questions to the email in my profile!

I went over our product last night, and all we have are 6 of the half-sized Beseiged faction-pack boxes, which matches my expectations as far as the number of packs we should have received including prize support. I was told that there was a pretty big screw-up with distribution that affected a lot of stores including ours, but I'm unclear if it was that we were supposed to get regular MBS packs for prizes and didn't or just that they had forgotten to send us any Scars boxes, so they had to overnight them to us. quote: Originally posted by AlmostGrown: And what kind of city doesn't have at least 1 card shop?

Until I got Magic started in a video game store that still doesn't sell anything Magic-related other than booster packs every once in a while, I had to drive an hour and a half to play Magic, and that's still the closest card shop I have.

You might consider using the Card Exchange for these. I know I have a few running around somewhere that I'll track down for you either way, but I find that the exchange is a great place for those off-the-wall low-value items. __________________ There's no need to fear, UNDERDOG is here!All your Gruul Nodorogs are belong to me.

Not at all, considering that it wouldn't even trigger unless your opponent has a targetable creature. And on top of that, I doubt that they would use another damage effect for the red part since it was already done on SoFI. It would probably be some sort of destroy target non-basic land variation, wheel of fortune variation or cast a red instant from graveyard then exile variation.
