Curious to hear best thing that was pulled from the packs. I heard a couple of strong angels and nero. How about a Warriors KoT or Harvest Time, or gasp even a playtest card?

A guy named Martin pulled an original play test card. Several people at Nats pulled multiple GOYS. I seemed to only get copies of ANB, likely as a mocking of a reason I didn't win my T2 MP game with Ron Sias in timeout.

More details about the playtest card?

Play test card? What now? Did I miss the memo on this?

Occasionally we may mix in a bonus card such as one autographed by the artist, an original playtesting card, a promo card such as King David, King Solomon or Wings of Calamity.

From the description of TXP on the CGD home page.

Oh, cool! What's a playtest card though?

sk · « **Reply #6 on:** August 03, 2009, 02:26:05 PM »

Rob supposedly hid 2 original play test cards in the boxes of TxP he brought to Nats. Only one was open (it was Frog Demons), but since the other is still unopened, I'm not sure what it was. Here's hoping it was among those left that Bryon got from Rob...

I pulled a GOYS and Burial shroud in one pack

i think we should change the name of this thread to the worse cards pulled with the texp packs...or worse ultra rares...

because really, all i've got so far are junk ultras. anyone need any casting lots, pierced hearts, siegeworks, etc etc?

FresnoRedemption · « **Reply #9 on:** August 03, 2009, 04:04:17 PM »

I pulled two Storehouses, and I know of three other Storehouses pulled. I also pulled Three Nails and Burial Shroud in the same pack.

I like my Nero.

sk · « **Reply #12 on:** August 03, 2009, 04:23:12 PM »

Yeah, and Michael_of_the_Star pulled 4 copies of Nero in his 17(?) packs.

Lawfuldog · « **Reply #13 on:** August 03, 2009, 06:13:44 PM »

I opened a little over 40 packs.

Pulled 6 GoYS, 9 Storehouses, 3 Burial Shrouds, 4 Neros, 2 Household Idols, and about 45 other random not-so-great URs. Also got 2 Holy Grails, 6 Confusions, 5 Great Images, 6 Dungeon of Malchiahs, and 3 False Peaces.

The Guardian · « **Reply #14 on:** August 03, 2009, 07:19:38 PM »

Holy wow... can't wait to get my order of packs...

Master KChief · « **Reply #15 on:** August 03, 2009, 07:29:18 PM »

is no one else worried that the value of ultra rares from these sets will drop considerably given how everyone is breaking a gajillion goys, don, nero, blahblahblah per pack? ugh.

Lawfuldog · « **Reply #16 on:** August 03, 2009, 07:31:46 PM »

I predict value will drop $1-$2 each on the more important URs. Simply because supply and demand is still decently high since more and more people are keeping more than one deck made and entering them into tournaments.

For instance, I'm getting 4 sets of the new dominants so I can have both my Type-2 2 player decks built, my Type-1 2 player, and my "For-fun" deck made without having to switch cards.

Gabe · « **Reply #17 on:** August 03, 2009, 07:38:09 PM »

I got a few GoYS, 2 WoP, 3 Nero, 1 Wrath of Stan, 2 TSA and 2 Holy Grail along with several other assorted ultras. Although some packs didn't have any ultra rares, others had as many as 3 or 4 ultras. I don't know of anyone that pulled an ultra from Warriors.

Rob said something about the TexP packs from Nationals being "loaded" more than the regular ones will be. The reasoning had something to do with the time crunch to put them together and locating some of the cards from older sets in the warehouse.

Matman · « **Reply #18 on:** August 03, 2009, 07:41:18 PM »

Are all of the cards in the TexP packages foil cards or is it just the two new cards from the TexP expantion?

Lawfuldog · « **Reply #19 on:** August 03, 2009, 07:41:55 PM »

Just the two.

i like this...

lightningninja · « **Reply #21 on:** August 03, 2009, 07:49:56 PM »

This means that older players will sell their cards such as goys and WoP to younger players, who can't afford it. In turn, the older players will buy more cards to play type II and have a bunch of other cards to have, and the circle goes on. I think that this idea was AWESOME.

Ironica · « **Reply #22 on:** August 03, 2009, 10:03:57 PM »

Also, has anyone even pulled a DON out of the new pack?

I don't know of anyone that pulled an ultra from Warriors.

Someone opened a Warriors Ark of the Covenant during Booster.

I only heard of this happening twice at Nats. Strange compared to the number of GOYS that were released.
