  • Dominaria Prerelease is just around the corner and Wizards of the Coast have kindly sent me a prerelease kit to open up on the channel for you all! In this video there will be a prerelease guide for the day and deck building tips for you all. Plus I'll build a deck from the Dominaria sealed pool I open up and there will be a deck tech for it at the end!
    Hopefully these deck building tips will help you to a better prerelease overall!
    Let me know in the comments section below if you're going to pre-release this weekend. Are there any cards that you're hoping to open up? And if you are watching this after prerelease, let me know how you got on!

    I'm glad to see everyone is really excited about returning to Dominaria as a plane and best of luck to everyone at their prereleases! Do let me know which cards you're looking forward to opening and how you get on, I'd love to know!

    • @Anickilles
      @Anickilles 6 років тому +1

      i won my prerelease. angels, karn, some removal, and bolas claws to steal some bombs

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

      Wow that sounds like a fantastic pool of cards there, congratulations on winning! Did you manage to open up all the cards your were after?

    • @Anickilles
      @Anickilles 6 років тому +1

      sure i did, what a great saturday was

  • @jundsheep7599
    @jundsheep7599 6 років тому +10

    Dominaria is going to be my first prerelease, so thanks for the tips

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

      Best of luck and I hope you have a great time! Any particular card you're looking to open up?

    • @fiarusgaming3420
      @fiarusgaming3420 6 років тому +2

      eli c Great time to start. I stopped playing a while ago due to the dullness of the blocks, this one looks amazing though.

  • @sifuculreif6448
    @sifuculreif6448 6 років тому +3

    I like how they updated the tips insert! Looks like it actually has mana-curve suggestions now.
    Kinda wish that the 2nd stamped foil single was individually wrapped so you have the option to sell or store them individually and unopened.

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому +1

      I understand why they didn't but I certainly agree that it would have been nicer to do that. Granted wizards probably aren't worried about the secondary market much, but rather having some great cards to play with! The new insert is so much better like you said, I've compared it from the one in the rivals box I have still and the difference is night and day. Anything they can do to make it easier for new players to sealed is a huge plus!

    This will be my first prerelease ever! I’m pretty excited!

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

      I hope you have a great time bud - it's a really fun event and great way to get into the lgs scene! Any card in particular you're looking to open up?

    • @neilchristie6955
      @neilchristie6955 6 років тому

      Good luck bud. Hope you have a great time. My first was Shadows over Innistrad. I was super nervous but it was great fun.

  • @TemporalMagic
    @TemporalMagic 6 років тому +7

    That foil Gilded Lotus is sweet.

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

      Thanks, I hope it came across well in the video - certainly looks amazing in real life!

  • @TheMagicHistorian
    @TheMagicHistorian 6 років тому +6

    Thank you for recording this video the way you did. I needed some information about dominaria for a video I am working on today and I was just over at LRR and it was a nightmare trying to sort out what I wanted to know. I was able to gather everything I needed from your video. Thanks for taking the time to put this together, keep killing it.

  • @heckicusdoomicuswizardus1382
    @heckicusdoomicuswizardus1382 6 років тому +3

    I'm currently binge watching a load of pre-release videos for preparation, since dominaria is going to be my first prerelease. i'm really looking forward to it!

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

      I wish you the best of luck and hope you have a great time! (I'm sure you will) Anything in particular your hoping to open up?

    • @heckicusdoomicuswizardus1382
      @heckicusdoomicuswizardus1382 6 років тому

      yes I'm hoping to open slimefoot, he's too damn cool to not add him. well, in some cases, I can't, but still.

  • @Ghostlythereaper
    @Ghostlythereaper 6 років тому +4

    I just started playing 3 weeks ago. I can't wait for the release events coming up!

    That guilded lotus is just beautiful

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

      It really is - I dare say it looks even better in person! Anything from the set in particular you're looking to open up?

  • @themaruchanguy8824
    @themaruchanguy8824 6 років тому +2

    I haven’t done a pre release in forever. thanks for the tips. And I wish all of you great pulls. But remember no one likes a salty person. Have fun!!!

  • @vibid3
    @vibid3 6 років тому +7

    "Oh hey I'm just gonna talk to you guys about the prerelease kit and ignore the fact that my promo is a gilded lotus" I HOPE I'm half the lucky.

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

      haha! - I was extremely happy to get that as a promo card, looks stunning too! I hope you manage to get some nice pulls when you open up your kit. Any card in particular from the set your after?

    • @vibid3
      @vibid3 6 років тому +1

      Life Begins At 20 I'd be super happy if I got Lyra the Dawnbringer because I have an angel deck that could really use her.

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

      Great choice right there - I'm after her too!

    • @zero2583
      @zero2583 6 років тому

      I pulled a plain gilded lotus then look over and see my son has pulled a foil promo Karn......super happy 11 year old once i explained it's value and playability.

  • @ronl6812
    @ronl6812 6 років тому +4

    that's a sick pull for sealed

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

      It was a really solid pool, makes a change for me having that many on colour rares!

  • @austin31bennett
    @austin31bennett 6 років тому +1

    I just started playing the game at this last Open House so thank you so much for making this video and going through showing your thought process with a real prerelease pack :) I would have been lost without seeing this!

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

      You're welcome and welcome to the great game that is magic the gathering - hope you had a great time at the open house and if you're going to prerelease this weekend, best of luck to you! I hope you get some spicy pulls :)

  • @Tjlo1339
    @Tjlo1339 6 років тому +2

    Wow... that was an amazing pre-release. Not because of value per say but because that deck looks really good!

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

      I have to say I think it would be fun to play. Are you going to a Pre release this weekend?

    • @Tjlo1339
      @Tjlo1339 6 років тому +1

      Unfortunately not as it is my girlfriend's birthday this weekend and we have plans. I am living vicariously through UA-camrs. XD

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

      Ah, well there is always the next set! Hope you have a nice weekend regardless and I'm sure there will be plenty of videos around for you to watch :)

  • @Arghore
    @Arghore 6 років тому +3

    Personally i think the *41 card special* is a real option, and the dilution part in said case is hardly noticeable, the decks in limited will already have a high variance and that one extra thing won't make it that much worse. 16 creatures, 8 non-creatures, 17 lands ... As far as the video goes, seeing it's nice for people watching to be able to grasp your pool and get an idea of what you might be building, it be nice if you wouldn't skip the commons so fast, and seeing these will be the majority of your deck it may also give new(er) players the wrong idea. You obviously don't have to read them all, but go through them and say 'twenty one' in your mind at every common, to then go to the next. This is enough time to see them and identify by the picture which card it is. Other than that, pretty sick pool, hope to be as lucky as you, esp. that Gilded lotus, wouldn't mind getting one as my promo !!

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому +1

      I'll certainly take note of that for next time - thank you for that! I hope you get luckier with your pool and have a great time at your prerelease! It really is stunning in foil I must admit, I do wonder how nice the saga's would look in foil though!

    • @Arghore
      @Arghore 6 років тому

      Not to fond of the saga's, feels like the art is on the wrong side somehow ... and i am sure to play that lotus in my EDH deck(s), the saga's not so much...

  • @marcmarc1967
    @marcmarc1967 6 років тому +1

    Best artwork style in a long time. It's all beautiful, especially the saga cards. It actually looks like art instead of a screen-shot from a video game like it has for the last 5-10 years

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

      The saga's are beautiful - I really do want to see what one of them looks like in foil!

  • @gamerokami
    @gamerokami 6 років тому +2

    the card I'm most excited for is On Serra's Wings. it gives SO many keywords i just love it.

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

      It is a really cool card and I bet it looks absolutely stunning in foil! Not quite gift of ozhov for looks, but not far away

  • @2503aj
    @2503aj 6 років тому +3

    Hey! I've been looking forward to your pre-release video! You helped me lot with your Rivals pre-release too. I'm excited about Dominaria and legends. I love playing commander so I'm also going give brawl a shot :)

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

      Thank you - I'm glad I could be of some help! This set is pretty much perfect for you then! Any particular card that you want to make a commander itself or a brawl deck around?

  • @dc2maniac

      @werd6t8 6 років тому +1

  • @williamschaefer1822
    @williamschaefer1822 6 років тому +1

    Wow your pool was way better than what I opened. My promos were Gilde Lotus (Great!)And Jodah (unplayable in Limited). I also got Yargle, Tolarian Scolar and a list of other dirt. 1st game I plaued with 4 colors but no Swamp (oops). Thanks to the Lotus I won while only having 1 life spared. Lost that round after adding 2 swamps. Next round I swotched to black white and never did any better. You should be proud with what you opened.

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

      The lotus looks stunning in person right? Sorry to hear the matches didn't go all that well for you, but did you enjoy the day? I'm really happy with my pool - some great cards in there.

    • @williamschaefer1822
      @williamschaefer1822 6 років тому +1

      Life Begins At 20 It was fun but twice I had to sit out waiting for the match to end. Can't help but feel as, if I had won at least 1 round I might not have had to wait.

  • @Mofro256
    @Mofro256 6 років тому +1

      For sure! That gilded lotus made my day to be honest, looks amazing! Can't wait to see what you open up!

    • @OrcsHeadMagic
      @OrcsHeadMagic 6 років тому +1

      Life Begins At 20 Yeah though I swear I can hear the cards talking yo me through the box lol!

    • @Damnationization

      The Gilded Lotus is beautiful.

    • @OrcsHeadMagic
      @OrcsHeadMagic 6 років тому +1

      Especially in foil that's a back bone piece for any Brawl deck you build in paper!

    • @ShamanNoodles

      Fingers crossed for you, the card is pretty sweet!

  • @qazzaqstan
    @qazzaqstan 6 років тому +2

    @jimbryant2157 6 років тому +1

    I also really like the artwork on the Sagas. I am not even sure I would want to play most of them in a deck, but I really want to collect them all.

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

      I feel the same to be honest, although freyalise one in a green stompy deck would be great!

    • @excalebenthoreh.3063
      @excalebenthoreh.3063 6 років тому +1

      Working on a Unstable draft on Friday lets see how that goes. Hmm probably any of the sagas as I like the artwork that much ^^'

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

    Helm of the host is one of my most anticipated cards from this set.

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

      Now that could be a lot of fun! What deck are you going to use it in?

    • @joshuagoin7704

      Life Begins At 20 my Locust God EDH. I want to see people freak once the locusts double

  • @dyne313
    @dyne313 6 років тому +1

    I didn't get a Squee promo, had to buy one on ebay for that, but did get Clifftop Retreat promo and 2 Hinterland Harbor. Also a foil Helm of the Host, a Damping Sphere and a few others among 2 sealed pools. The card that did the most work for me in the games had to be Rite of Belzenlok.

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

      Shame you had to buy it, but glad you have one! To be fair, lands are always useful! That is a very solid card and I've underrated the sagas when I initially viewed them. Happy with the set overall in limited?

    • @dyne313
      @dyne313 6 років тому +1

      The limited format seems fun.

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

      Glad to hear it, I might actually give it more of a go. Especially when it's on arena

  • @justinveron698
    @justinveron698 6 років тому +1

    My two biggest are Karn and Teferi but looking forward to a lot of cards!!!!!!!

    • @LifeBeginsAt20

      Two great choices there! Hope you manage to get them

  • @jimbryant2157
    @jimbryant2157 6 років тому +1

    Very nice - I would LOVE to get a foil Gilded Lotus!

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

      I hope you do - it's a stunning card which I think looks even better in person than on camera! Best of luck!

  • @XavierGranville
    @XavierGranville 6 років тому +1

    Grunn! That's the pull I'm hoping on to make a Commander deck around. Something ridiculous in mono green

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

      He is a unit! Hope you manage to get him, great card to build around. Will do some work

  • @FathomMage
    @FathomMage 6 років тому +1

    I love the new Gilded Lotus art. Hoping to get some of the check lands as well. I'm not familiar with all of the cards, but this looks like it will be a slower sealed format. Nice deck, & that dragon looks almost unbeatable!

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

      It certainly looks stunning, hope that foil came across well in the video! The check lands are nice and to be honest, there are some very interesting cards to brew from in this set. I do wonder what it'll do to standard as I do see a lot of EDH and brawl cards. Oh that dragon could well be a beast!

  • @polleyb6838
    @polleyb6838 6 років тому +1

  • @kendalcannon8858
    @kendalcannon8858 6 років тому +1

    You got some decent cards, watching this made me think of an infinite combo in standard,
    Squee the Immortal, Gilded Lotus, Skirk Prospector and Paradox Engine.

    • @LifeBeginsAt20

      Don't blame you there! Do you think the brawl format will take off?

    • @kieranlantier4043
      @kieranlantier4043 6 років тому +1

      i really have no idea , i regularly commute between two cities with a lgs in each. One of them is hosting brawl tournaments and the other isn't. But i'll definetly give it a go since there is at least some play :)

    I love the emphasis on PreRelease as a fun event first, competitive second. As an additional resource for your viewers, I cooked up a "limited for dummies" infographic for my Game Club kids. Check it out in the 4/15 post on our Facebook page, @shsgames.

    I also want to pull Muldrotha to brew a commander deck

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

      That does seem to be a very popular brawl card to brew around! I'm sure those elves would do a great job for you - steel leaf champion has great stats for the cost!

    @vernbrown4021 6 років тому +1

    Thanks for posting, good advice, just so you know there was no original dominera set, the first 10 plus sets of magic all took place in denominera it’s the original setting that magic had before it started making new sets based on a new world

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

      Apologies, that's what I kind of meant, but having started in origins I never focussed much on the lore of the game. I'm glad there are a lot of people excited about returning to the plane though!

  • @JesusGarcia-jh8zd
    @JesusGarcia-jh8zd 6 років тому +4

    Muldrotha the Gravetide and Mox Amber pl0x

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

      Fingers crossed for you bud - that mox I can see being a very good card for a lot of formats!

    • @JesusGarcia-jh8zd
      @JesusGarcia-jh8zd 6 років тому +1

      Life Begins At 20 I'd be happy with either, but I do want to build a commander deck for Muldrotha.

    • @LifeBeginsAt20

      It certainly would be fun!

    • @JesusGarcia-jh8zd

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

      I'll have a look back through the pool and see if you're right! it is interesting how different people would brew with a pool, although I'm not a fan of the colour blue so maybe that's why I skipped past it ^^

  • @jacfac9969
    @jacfac9969 6 років тому +1

    I learned that the A in bread is aggro, or the little creatures that put the pressure on your opponent in the early game

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

      Fair enough - I always tend to look out for abilities as you won't always want aggro creatures - but that'll still work well in limited.

  • @wickidgames
    @wickidgames 6 років тому +2

    Im super stoked for the guilded lotus, and the sangir pureblood tbh. Both for my vampire edh. Hes not the best vampire, but ill finally have an at least playable sangir vampire.

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

      I hope you get them bud! That lotus artwork looks amazing so I'm sure you'll be happy with it!

    • @thomasshackett4744
      @thomasshackett4744 6 років тому

      The original sengir is more playable. there is also sengir nosferatu. Vein Drinker and Vampiric Dragon are very similar. So it isnt like this guy is really filling that hole, unless you very specifically needed a black red sengir vampire.

    • @wickidgames
      @wickidgames 6 років тому

      Thomas Shackett most of those cards require damage to a creature, and then that creature to die.
      The new sengir just wants damage. So cards like olivia that ping gives him a +1/+1 and any blockers will grow him.

  • @ladywolf5384

    • @TheThanimal
      @TheThanimal 6 років тому +1

      It is one of the cards I would most want to pull at prerelease. Great in cube, commander, and the tournament I open it in. Wow, I just realised that Gilded Lotus in now Brawl legal *shudders*

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

      I think it's going to be a staple in brawl for pretty much every deck! Definitely great cube card too - might have to rebuild an unpowered one now

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому +1

      That's quite a tough question as there are many right answers to this. But for me having a clear goal of what you want to bring to an audience is the most important. Whether this be teaching the game, entertaining people, brewing decks, lore or so on. This way people know what they're coming to you for and you are able to create better content on that.
      Higher production value, personality and so on are all things that are important but knowing why you're making content is key.

      Life Begins At 20 Thinking green is strongest color for prerelease, but as we know after opening the first pack you will know what direction you should go. The ramp into green is strong. Counter craziness!

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому +1

      green base for the ramp and being able to splash for bombs does sounds like a pretty good plan right there!

  • @dtopa7524
    @dtopa7524 6 років тому +2

    The only thing about your deck that worries me is THREE 7 drops. That feels like a lot, even with your ramp package. That said Jund was absolutely STACKED in this pool, lol.

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

      To be fair, there are a lot of other options in the sideboard if that does in fact end up being too heavily stacked at the top end. I do think though that with the ramp package it's certainly possible to play these out well and prerelease tends to be slightly slower games too. Certainly options there to mix it up, but like you said that colour combo is stacked!

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

      I think if you got that, everyone at the prerelease would scoop up and go, they aren't beating that!
      To be honest, there were far too many interesting cards to put in - and the joy of a prerelease is I could adapt it later on if I felt I needed it - alongside the other graveyard recursion.
      I totally agree with knight tribal - looks a lot of fun!

    Did you identify Orcish Vandal, a repeatable shock effect that can end games, as "Dirt"? The other 2 are very playable as well.

    • @LifeBeginsAt20
      @LifeBeginsAt20  6 років тому

      For me a 1/1 That takes a turn to be able to activate it and having to build a deck around it with plenty of artefacts you don't mind sacrificing for 2 damage for me isn't worth it. It's killed by pretty much all removal in the game and the effect is telegraphed too. That beings said, it's not awful, but the overall power level of the set is pretty high so I needed to draw the line somewhere.
      I'm happy to be wrong though, I'm by no means a professional player!

    • @williamsimkulet7832
      @williamsimkulet7832 6 років тому

      Life Begins At 20 Question? Is it (repeatable) removal? Answer: Yes. Turn your artifact chump blockers into 2 damage. Sacrifice their disenchant variant target.
      Don't rationalize. This set, like ixa, has terrible instant speed kill, this is limited playable, easily, if you have artifacts.
      Ps - you say the power level of the set is high; not true. This is IXA w/ legends/artifact tribal. The set design overlap is, frankly, unacceptable, and we all know how IXA played.
