This weekend will be the prerelease of Magic the Gathering’s newest (core)set, Magic 2020, and there is one thing that we all wish for: No more product delays. I have said that because in the past few sets starting with Guilds of Ravnica, all of the local prerelease events have been delayed by a week or two. There were several scenarios that caused this, like natural calamities and unforeseen logistics, and those have really affected the local game stores and also the player experience.
Anyway as of this posting, the current schedule for the two game stores here in Iloilo City are as follows:
Friday, June 5, 2019
Magic 2020 Prerelease at Nth Dimension: Comics and Games
P1400 entry fee, gets one prerelease kit
Deck building starts 6:30pm
Round 1 starts 7:20pm
Saturday, June 6, 2019
Magic 2020 Prerelease at Pro Reis place
P1300 entry fee, same one prerelease kit
Deck building starts 12:30pm
Round 1 starts 1:20pm
Each prerelease kit contains the following:
6 Magic 2020 Booster packs
1 Randomized date-stamped premium promo card
1 Spindown life counter
1 Deck-building guide
1 Cardboard divider
Do remember to bring sleeves and basic lands for the deck building. Also stuff like dice and tokens that you might need during the games.
See you at the event geists!
