Time for another Magic: The Gathering prerelease weekend! This is for the new 2011 Core Set. I love these events and one of the comic book shops here in Lincoln is doing their prerelease at midnight on Friday (so, technically Saturday). I’m gonna hit that midnight event, and then marathon into another store’s prerelease at 9:00am.

I’m gonna pass out on a pile of cards; it’s gonna be great.

Dead Space was a really rad, scary game. This trailer for the sequel looks just as badass.

It’s going down tonight, a Dead Lantern civil war. Mat, Steve, Deejay and some kid they picked up off the street will square off against Cech, Spooky McPhee, Brady, me and a couple of others rotating in and out.

The odds are monumental. Can the loveable, scrappy underdogs pull off an upset against the surly, grizzled pros?

(no, probably not)

You jerks sick of me talking about Magic yet? You are? Well tough shit because the pre-release events for the new set, Rise of the Eldrazi, are going down this weekend. If you happen to be in the Lincoln/NE area and are planning to go, maybe we’ll see each other.

Here’s some info on the set and here are the details for the Lincoln event.

This coming weekend is the prerelease for the new Magic set, Worldwake. Unofficial sources have full spoilers. I’m sure the official spoiler will catch up by the weekend.

I’m planning to go to tournaments on both Saturday and Sunday here in Lincoln. The worldwide player base is up and more stores are getting the opportunity to do prereleases. I’m excited to support a new location for Magic here in town on Sunday, in addition to going to the big event at the more established shop on Saturday.

If you’re unfamiliar with the game and you have access to an Xbox 360, I heartily recommend the Live Arcade version of the game, Duels of the Planeswalkers. It’s an excellent introduction and will teach you all the basics in a pretty fun package.
