Opened the SCG Stream expecting a full day of mono-red mirror matches, pleasantly surprised to see Sultai Delve vs. Abzan Midrange! I hope this Standard season has some variety.

So hang on to my Russian foil Dig Through Time, or move it ASAP?

I thought Ob Nixilis didn't have his spark anymore and couldn't transform out of his demon form, let alone planeswalk? The Commander one could be an incarnation from the past, much like Teferi (who is still missing and spark-less as far as I know).

All of the planes walkers will be retro as far as the timeline is concerned. I was hoping for Tevesh Szat, but Ob is cool too.

I would absolutely love to describe him, to his face, as "a guy that's been drawing lumpy stuff on magic cards longer than anybody." Of course, I actually like the lumps in a lot of cases - they add texture and character to stuff like Urza's Power Plant or Primal Beyond.

I wonder if he knows how to draw Lumpy Space Princess...

That's Mark Tedin, not Poole. Mark Tedin's art owns.

AFAIK Wizards provides two packs per player which must go into the prize pool, but how that prize pool is actually distributed is up to the store. Some stores pay out a very flat prize structure (pack-per-win isn't unusual, and the local store here even runs "casual" flights were you get the same number of "prize" boosters at the end not matter what your record is), while others pay out something a little more top-heavy.

My store (I'm the owner) got 100 prerelease packs allocated but only 5 boxes which ended up being 1.8 per person. Pretty frustrating but I put up a bunch of door prizes and everyone got at least one booster for playing.

But yeah it felt a bit rough giving the 5-0 guy only 4 packs.

I don't recall seeing mention of this, but foil versions of the Siege cards have this cool holographic watermark that switches between the KTK and DTK set symbol. Pretty rad!
