So i Attended the New Phyrexia pre-release this sunday at my closest ''local store'' that was holding the event (45min drive w00p w00p).

We started off with a sealed tournament, 3 scars and 3 new phyrexia. later on there was a draft 3-2-1.

Im just going to give a quick over view of the set and what i opened.

for this set all i can say its its bomb heavy, this ramps up the power of any deck especially in limited, your very unlikely to open a pack and see nothing of value. the new phyrexian mana is great seeing off colour spells being cast for 2life instead and dropping normal 6 costs for 4 and 4life is awsome. other than that the sets has one hell of a mana curve seeing a large number of 6+ casting cost rares. And obviously we have the new planeswalker khan ( fluff wise this card shouldn't exist since khan gave up his planewalker status''Spark'') either way over the whole day we only got see him pull his ultimate off once

My pulls : (only the rares because that sort dictated what i played.
Scars:
Kemba, Kha Regent
Kuldotha Phoenix
Koth of the hammer

New Phyrexia:
Hex parasite
Phyrexian Swarmlord
Sheolder, whispering one

As you can see, i got very lucky, and ended up with a green red infect deck that splashed for the whispering one and a couple of black control cards.

As far as my games went koth showed he was a boss appearing at turn 3 in one game prompty followed by a scoop. Other than that my games were pretty straight forward though for a deck that built around infect i ended up killing with normal damage more than often.

The hex parasite was never needed as I played 1 guy who had khan and never managed to cast him. least it was a good side board card.

the draft:
3-2-1
I open a foil Moltensteel dragon. foil bomb YEsssss!
after that I cut red as card as i could and end up with a fare few green cards. at this point im thinking im going to end up a red green deck again and so i do. this time i had alot more phyrexian mana cards and all i shall say is this was one of my games:

Turn1 mountian
turn2 Mountain -Immolating souleater
turn3 forest - piston sledge - equiped to the souleater , attack for 4.
turn4 forest - glissa's scorn targeting the only blocker opponent loses 1life, boost soul eater by 2, pay 18 life to boost by 9, attack for 15 ftw.

end of the day I came forth with the sealed and 2nd in the draft, since im not the greatest for limited players I call this a good day
