I played 3 events this weekend and pulled bonkers. Seems a lot of people did. My green box alone had two Naylea, 2 bows and Heliod. I also hit 3 Elspeth and 2 scry lands. I saw 2 of the foil R/G planeswalker and 3 normal between two events, and a number of Ashioks as well. Plus, and this is nuts, 5 foil thoughtseizes! God only lmowz how many normal ones. Very few people didn't pull a god.
Makes me wonder about price of these cards. I get that I'm seeing such a small pool (40, 42 and 22 people for the events) it is insignificant, but gods seem to be all over. And if I alone got 3 Elspeth in 2 boxes and one from my win (10 packs) it seems like a high rate of money pulls.
Yeah, in my first three events in combination between me, my brother, my girlfriend, my girlfriend's brother, his best friend, and my best friend (note that that is 21 sealed kits) we only pulled 1 Purphoros, 1 Nylea(which was foil), 1 Erebos, 2 Underworld Cerberus, 1 Xenagos, and 0 Thoughtseize. So yeah, looks like your pulls were just awesome to make up for our crappy pulls.
Because 6 mythics in 126 packs (plus our prizes, some of which still aren't opened...but the Xenagos and the Underworld Cerberus were from prize packs), so technically 4 mythics in 126 packs is incredibly low. Especially with no thoughtseize or fleecemane lion.
I don't know what it is about thoughtseize either, I've opened 4 pre release starter boxes and about 30 prize packs in total and found zero. I pulled 1 Xenagos and 1 Ashiok, no Elspeth, 1 Erebos and 3 Nylea, but no other gods. Kind of annoying. I'm hoping the box I ordered will have better stuff.
My red box was awful. My pool was absolute garbage, and the one guy I beat didn't know how to play the game. The experience soured the entire day for me, but at least the UFC event later that night was a good one.
I choose the black pack because the red I had in mind had already gone. But it was for good in the end. Except the black promo card I opened Erebos in the black pack. Then the boosters got me excited. 1st pack gave Purphoros, 2nd pack gave Ashiok, 3rd pack gave Ashen Rider, 4th pack gave the red promo card and 5th pack was !Reaper of the Wilds. Prety good packs, 4 myhtics out of 6 pack. Couldn't be happier.

Realistically he should only be unblockable without equipment
Guard 1: There goes a sword floating down the street!
Guard 2: Well, he's unblockable, so ignore it.

This prerelease box yielded Ashen Rider, Abhorrent Overlord, Nighthowler, as well as triple Gray Merchant of Asphodel, Rescue from the Underworld, and triple Divine Verdict. I won half a box from this pool
Hoping for better luck at the release party.
