    Best spoilers so far. The slow play is excellent.

    AHH I'm so tired of seeded choose your pack pre-releases.

    I miss the days when we just got 6 packs and a promo. Why can't we have that back?

    Is this really any different?

    We're getting 6 packs, and a small seeded booster that includes a promo.

    Just when we thought this thread couldn't degenerate anymore, two grown men have pulled down their pants and started measuring their junk.

    wow this looks like one of the worst case scenarios: http://www.magicdrafting.com/savedpools/10476
    a single mythic comet storm.
    Don't see the point in showing all these ridiculous scenarios when the sim site is clearly broken.

    All this is part of the gamble of cracking boxes though. If you want value, you'll never ever crack packs. The enjoyment of cracking boxes and opening something awesome outweighs the gamble that i might get nothing worth it in the box. If i can open my box, make 4 sealed decks to play with friends, then that goes a long way to value FOR ME. If i get a foil Goyf, then awesome, bonus!

    I've opened $500 boxes of basketball cards with under $50 of value in them before. I've also opened the exact same product and scored a $2000 card as well. That's just the nature of cracking boxes. Any sane collector would spend that $1000 on something they need, but that's just not fun to do all the time, and you don't get that chance of hitting the home run card.

    You'll never find a product where your EV is really close to what you're paying, it doesn't make sense. Cracking boxes in anything is equivalent to playing slot machines.

    I can totally understand this disappointment in the set for so many people, it would just be nice for the people who are still looking forward to it to be able to without being spoken down to about it that's all.
