Avacyn Restored Prerelease Primer

Hello everyone and welcome back, after a exciting spoiler season with the latest set Avacyn Restored, it's that time again with the prerelease action that it normally brings, so let's bring everyone up to speed here.

First most local game stores are going to have something called the Helvault this weekend where you will receive a checklist card with achievements on it, something a little like this.



A two sided checklist and achievement card, which will help you understand what needs to be done to break the locks on the Helvault, which the contents of were spoiled, but i'm not going to run the risk of showing the spoils of that particular thing.

Another thing to keep in mind is all players will receive a promo card just for entry into the prerelease, some stores may have limited supplies but most will have a abundant supply of the promo cards, for a reminder here's the prerelease card for the event.


Moonsilver Spear with alternate art can be yours just for entering the event, plus the 6 packs to build your deck with as well, which are also provided as the event begins, remember the format for this prerelease as always is Sealed Deck, 6 boosters are provided to you for the entry fee and you are to build your deck from them, you cannot include your prerelease card with the deck you build and it is inadvisable to do so otherwise you may be banned from the event.

If you have already signed up for the Avacyn Restored prerelease this weekend, then good luck, for those wanting to play in the Helvault event, contact your local game store and see if they still have spots open for the event, but a bit of advice if you are paying more then the price of the regular cost of prereleases then it is advisable to contact wizards and report your store for that because most stores will not do that, but there are a few out there that are known to do that, you should be paying roughly around 25 dollars for the event for the cost of the 6 packs provided, the promo card and if you are playing in the Helvault event, the prizes for unlocking the vault, other then that have fun this weekend at your local game store or hobby store and enjoying cracking the Helvault, hopefully wizards does this kind of stuff more often then not cause the excitement leading to the event was exceptional in my opinion, until next time this is vergil signing off.
