Bah! Every year there's something that keeps me from going to Gencon Sad

I might be able to get out of it though - hopefully everything will work out

If I don't make it good luck to everyone who does!

When they say "prizes include Italian Legends", does that mean ALL the packs are Legends, or just like half of them or so?

All would be awesome, but I doubt they have that many.

That gets me thinking though, where the heck are they getting all these Italian Legends packs?! They seem to always give them away. Weird.

They have a TON of IT LG packs sitting around, they massively overprinted that set I think. THAT is Wizards' true "vault."

Does this mean that Mana Drain is getting errata?

</sarcasm> Now that they have a triggered effect that adds mana in T2, look for them to hopefully clear that rules/ruling up some.

Anyway, I couldn't go last year, but I hope I can go this year.

I'm all for mocking the hypocrisy of others, but seriously this scares me Sad

Hopefully we'll be able to be there. We're really looking forward to it as well as Origins.
