White Forged in Glory Journey Into Nyx




Forge A Godslayer Journey Into Nyx



Journey into Nyx included this Game. The sealed box you chose had one of the score cards above. After your match you selected one of these fantastic stickers to put on the card--winner of the match got first pick.





based on the stickers you got you then got to enhance your special item card with an added ability.



I love that magic is including this game within a game in this set--really makes things fun.

Journey Into Nyx Prerelease at Dice House

The day began with a very agressive Skylanders vs. Halo battle on the kitchen table.

Halo won.




Then we headed to the Dice House. Brian drove Jack, Alex, Alexander, and 

I drove Preston, Matt, Derek, Cassidy, and Liam.

We paid and got started.



Dice House is the best shop in Orange County and there was a lot of time spent shopping.



12:00 Saturday Pre Release was not that crowded.




Jack was celebrating his birthday--he had not prepared for the prerealease but he was ready to have fun.

Alex Sanz was at his second event ever.



And drew the God Pack--all the Gods in Theros. He did not even know what it was.



The boys did a great job building out there decks. Fast and efficient--I really think that they knew what they were doing.




The games were great.



Everyone had a fantastic time.

After we came home for Pizza and Cake. Then went to the pool for a few hours. It was a great Saturday.

Sanderson’s Three Laws of Magics


  1. An author’s ability to solve conflict with magic is DIRECTLY PROPORTIONAL to how well the reader understands said magic.
  2. Limitations > Powers (i.e. “Superman is not his powers. Superman is his weaknesses.”)
  3. Expand what you already have before you add something new.

Another Pleasant Valley Tuesday

A very mellow morning of magic today.

Jack and Preston played Pokemon which was awesome. 

Matt and I had a viscous Red/Green Monsters vs Simic battle. He took me out quick the first game, I got him on a grinder the second game. The third game he was way ahead but the Bident of Thassa


& Prophet of Kruphix 


brought me back.

Derek beat Liam.

Cassidy lost to Dylan

Andrew & Alexander were late.

It was a fun morning, but not as eventful as many.
