Magic: the Gathering is my favorite game and I'm excited for the upcoming Kaladesh prerelease this weekend.

I'm pretty sure there are MtG players on Steemit even though the game isn't discussed much. So let this post be the Gathering of Magic players. If you like the game, feel free to write a little bit about it in the comments. What format do you usually play? Are you a tournament or a casual player? Are you going to the Kaladesh prerelease?
I'm rather a casual player and I haven't played for a while, but I've already registered for Saturday and Sunday prerelease tournaments. For those who need a little encouragement I gathered some useful links here:
- Prerelease primer for beginners
- Kaladesh mechanics (new mechanics and rules)
- Kaladesh release notes (more detailed information about the set and rulings)
- All cards from the set
- Excellent card analysis for limited format by Luis Scott-Vargas: artifacts, white and blue (more should come soon here)

Kaladesh has an interesting flavor inspired by India and steampunk (not to be confused with steempunk, which should mean something on Steemit, but I don't know what yet). In my opinion the most interesting new mechanic is the new artifact subtype Vehicle. I don't want too many of them in my deck, but I will probably put 2-4 of the most powerful.
I'd be happy to hear from MtG players on Steemit. After the prerelease you can write in the comments about your results and the most exciting cards you opened.
