UPDATE: Fixed the usable sets in Type 2- origianlly I had listed “Alara” block as in Type 2, but they rotated out at the start of the month. My mistake.
I’m sure everyone is eager to play with their new cards! So, here’s the perfect opportunity to build a new Type 2 / Standard deck with a twist! You can choose to play either a Mirran-affiliated deck or a Phyrexia-affiliated deck (rules below!), what better way to get the feel for this new “Mirrodin” set?
This Saturday, October 30, 2010 at 1 PM we are hosting a “Scars Of Mirrodin” Game Day! It will be no charge to play (FREE!) and the good people at Wizards Of The Coast (WOTC) were kind enough to send us some amazing new cards to give away as prizes (including a preview card of the next Magic set called, “Mirrodin Besieged“)! Here’s a great link with tons of information on this great artifact block:
