by Ty Thomason on September 6th, 2012

Asgard Games is hosting a sealed deck Grand Prix Trial for GP San Jose on September 22. Included in the prize for the winner is a plane ticket to the Grand Prix itself! To get you ready for the tournament, I’m going to talk about how I approach sealed deck building. During Innistrad block, my sealed deck record over 80% at PTQs and Grand Prix, so I may know a thing or two.
