Pre-release!
Limited forum

So it's going to be six packs of Origins, plus a 7 card seeded booster (including a random on-colour promo).
What's everybody thinking?
Personally, I'm leaning towards white, but Green is looking pretty good as well right now.

Ugh. Yeah, it seems that actual posts aren't appearing.
Basically, I was asking people what they were thinking of running for pre-release, and getting excited.
6 Boosters, plus a seeded 7 card booster (with a playable promo)
Leaning towards white myself.

Well im going to the 2hg prerelease and we are thinking (currently) Blue and Green, play big stuff, counter theirs. This is going to be my second prerelease ever and i dont know if that's a good plan, picking the color with the best rares is definately not the correct strategy learned it the hard way my self :D

Well, with only a seven card seeded booster, going after the rares in the pre-release might not be an awful idea, actually. The seeded booster is going to vastly increase your chances of getting a rare in the colour you want, and as for the commons, you'll have so many from the other 6 packs, that you're likely to be pushed towards any colour for actual play.

Definitely leaning towards white. I'm excited about things in every color right now... but most of them don't have me excited about limited. So if I can throw together WW? Sounds good to me. It's my favorite color anyway.

It's always tough to go monocoloured in Sealed Deck. Even with the seeded half-booster. Good luck!

I doubt I'll be able to do it without splashing another color, but who knows?

I always force green, but I plan on going to 2 events so I can switch it up a bit but not sure what else to choose.

Yeah I plan on choosing white myself but it all changes when I actually open the packs and see the pool I have to work with. Nothing is set in stone. I also think splashing a second color will be necessary. Yes mana fixing sucks but it just makes for an overall stronger deck in most cases. I've been using this site to help generate pools and make hypothetical decks http://www.magicdrafting.com/magic-origins-sealed/ . Usually 2 colors is strongest and I don't always end up making the deck of the seeded pack I choose. Just try it out and get comfortable!

Doing one color in sealed is really pretty hard, you need to get lucky. I'm picking white for the prerelease pack, but that doesn't mean the non-seeded boosters will agree with my plan. My ideal scenario is I can go with white, but I'm going to build the strongest deck I can even if it means that doesn't happen.

Sorry xD, I mean't I always force myself to choose the green prerelease pack. I've always loved green so I can't pull myself away from it xD
