Kaladesh Pre-release

So pre-release weekend is coming up and this is probably the best practice I can get for the upcoming GP. However my good friends also advised me that there are sites that show generated sealed pools for sets and now that the full list for Kaladesh has been released you can go to these sites and use it as a visual practice for learning the cards and doing a variety of builds from a pool. Some site even allow you to deck build and generate sample hands etc.

So the first site I looked at was Statistical Magic Sealed Generator now for a sealed pool this opens the packs one at a time and then shows you each pack at the end then allows you to build a deck and submit it to the site. Overall I like seeing each pack and reading at my own pace but the end deck build is very clunky and I am not a fan. So I would rate is 5/10.

 

The next site I tried using was MTG mirror this time the packs are all opened at once so the entire pool is visible also foiled cards are highlighted, I like this site as it also provides some rudimentary charts on the side indicating how many cards you have of each colour and a filter system can help narrow down your fields. Cards are easy to select for deck building and generating a sample hand is great too my only negative is when conducting a mulligan from sample hands you cannot scry thus making decisions on playing a hand difficult otherwise I highly recommend this site 8/10.

The last website I will talk about is Draftism which looks very basic but does have a great feature of auto build which in turn allows you to look at the pool of cards make a rough decision and see what the computer comes up with and to my surprise the computer does come up with some sweet builds but some of the time it misses vital cards that should be splashed etc. In all I like it for the auto build function but abit too simplistic 7/10.

So I terms of practise it good we have sources in website to build sealed decks these also can have drafts done too but I'm not focusing too heavily on that just yet. So signing off for now talk again soon.
