Current Events > went to a magic draft. got about $35 worth of cards for a $17 entry fee

(+) Yeah! (+)

looks like im sucked back in

jin gitaxias is insane. i got both versions at the draft somehow. also pulled a planeswalker, some $7 enchantment for green but most importantly

SQUEEEEEEEE

I feel like most magic drafts can end in profit if you're pulling for sale and not for actually winning the draft.

Honestly, it's why I hate playing drafts at comic shops. Too many players are just pulling cards for resale and not actually trying to play. And you inevitably have that moment where you open a booster that has the perfect card for the deck you're trying to build but also a card you know is valuable and you should never have to make that compromise.

im rusty and didnt even read jin gitaxias ....so mad i didnt use him in the draft because hes a legit good draft card (the 5 mana one not the 10 mana one)

the draft i played at were cool dudes and spanked me. almost won a game but i misplayed a ton. btw both jin gitaxias cards were passed to me. i know its only a $4 card but i definitely wasnt playing with a resale crowd. they didnt seem to care about values.

the planeswalker i pulled was from a promo pack since i did technically win a round by default (odd number players)

also theres a ton of extra cards left over. take the valuable card lol. btw both

then i got a bonus pack for some reason and pulled a breach of the multiverse(there were actually two rares in that pack but the other one was some chump bulk rare). it was a good night.

i like to draft on MTGA, never played at a LCS. seems like a fun time though.

Grats!

Wizards gives out additional prize support for stores that they give out regardless of placement. Sometimes it's individual cards, some times its mini-packs. It depends on when you happen to be playing as to which you get.
