[Modern Masters Sealed]

Modern Masters Sealed *Magic: The Gathering*

WHAT IS MODERN MASTERS?
Modern Masters is a 229 card set containing reprints from 8th Edition through Alara Reborn pulled from the Modern format, including the sought after Tarmogoyf! The set is designed to be both high power and balanced for Limited. 20 to 30 cards will have new art, as well as creature tokens that haven't been printed before. A guaranteed premium foil card will take the place of a basic land in each pack.

WHY MODERN MASTER SEALED?
ComicReaders Downtown ran a number of invite-only Modern Masters Drafts in the summer with the intention of inviting the winners back to ComicReaders Downtown for a special Sealed event. The drafts were a big success but there were repeat winners so the winner invite list is too small to hold a decent event. That's why we're opening this event up to the general public.

COST

Cost is $70 (after tax) for 6 packs of Modern Masters.

DATE & TIME

Sunday, December 15, 2013 starting at 12pm.

ComicReaders Downtown will continue to runs its regular draft / sealed events on Sundays. 

PRIZES

A prize pool of Modern Masters will be up for grabs. Prize pool is calculated as follows: 1.5 x number of players.
