Registration for the Sealed tournament on Saturday will start at 9am and gameplay will begin at 10. It’s $20 to play, and everyone gets a free slice of pizza and a drink, plus an alternate art Ancient Hellkite promo (while supplies last). Drafts will start again after the sealed tournament as well as all day Sunday.


As an added bonus, if you’re among the first 20 customers to come pick up their box of M11 from the store, you’ll receive a foil, alternate art Birds of Paradise! You can pre-order your box online but you must select “Store Pick-Up” in order to be eligible. Supplies are limited, so be sure to get here early.

Remember that M11 will be standard legal as of July 16th, so this week’s FNM will be the first place to rock out your new cards. Tell some friends and get ready to have a blast – see you here!
