Chelsea and I are away for the prerelease weekend due to honeymooning in Bali so won’t be attending the Morningtide prerelease, but that shouldn’t stop the rest of you!

For anyone that wants to attend, information can be found here:

Just email Russell and preregister for any flights you are interested in playing in.

Good luck Atogatog people, and have fun!

See you for drafts and BBQs upon our return!.

So, I handed in the final draft of my PhD thesis on Friday, and now what I’m looking forward to is seeing all you guys and playing some cards (if I still remember how)!

I’m suggesting that anyone is welcome to come around here on Saturday night and we can draft if people want to… play some casual games. We could have a BBQ if it is nice. Basically I’m just testing the waters to see if anyone is free and interested?

It’s been a few weeks since the last draft so there’s probably some people suffering withdrawal symptoms. Chelsea and I will be hosting drafting on this Saturday evening at our place. Please post expressions of interest or disinterest below.

• Kamigawa block, $8
• Time Spiral block, $13
• Ravnica block, $11

Where: My place in Carrum. (67a Church Rd)
Cost: ~$25 each
Bring: Land and sleeves (if you want them)
Arrive: 11:00 onwards (You can open cards when you arrive and have a teammate)
Start: 1pm (Games start then…so your decks need to built by 1pm!!!)

As our Atogatog event for Tenth Edition we’re going to have a Two-headed Giant sealed deck tournament. You can find the rules differences in the 2HG FAQ. We’ll assign teammates on the day. We’re thinking of balancing each teams skill by assigning players top with bottom from the rankings. Though we’re open to people playing with someone of their choice so long as they are not a powerhouse team!
