    Who should I pick in VOW vs. MID tomorrow? I’ve played almost no Limited with either set before.

      You have to pick? I would have thought you get 3 packs of 1 and 3 of the other. If not though I think the sets turned out to be backwards. MID was mostly a UB set with zombies being way better and VOW a better werewolf set.

        Apparently the deal is that you pick one set and all of your games will be against people who picked the other one. Would probably get old quick if it lasted longer than a couple of days, but as it is I think it’s a neat gimmick.

        Between Zombies and Werewolves, I think I like the idea of a Zombies deck better, but usually turn out to actually play better with green-red.

          Hmm, from what I remember midnight hunt was a set where the rares were mostly low power level for limited. Whereas crimson vow was a lot more bomby.

            That also makes me lean towards Crimson Vow. I’d prefer less bomby limited formats in general, but if I have to play either with one or against one…

    The almost no ban event is going to be fun
