So, did anyone go to any prerelease events for Time Spiral?

I did three 8 man drafts. Won 2 of them, scrubbed out in the other, won a total of 9 packs.

What did you think of the set?

I have to say it was one of the most fun draft formats I've done. Completely broken and weird but a TON of fun. Thank goodness, after the horribleness that was Coldsnap we deserved a chance for the better.

Did the prerelease today, arrived late and only got to play one round of sealed for a 3-1 record and an unbelievable six packs... real high stakes there. I pretty much pulled the most broken deck possible, with Serra Avenger, Magus of the Disk, that black buyback tutor, Soltari Priest (welcome back, my old friend!), some solid flankers, and a nice pile of black removal. Half my losses came from mana screw, I only lost one game where I was just out-played by my opponent.

And yeah, it's totally broken, and is only going to get more broken. But that's just the way I like it... I LIKED the good old days of Tempest-block and broken power cards. I've already got visions in my mind of blue/white aggro, lots of overpowered evasive creatures, counterspell backup, and the game-breaking potential of Unstable Mutation/Psionic Blast.
