Planechase Release Party--Saturday, Sept. 5th!
Planechase
The new casual, multi-player oriented Magic game has arrived! Going on sale this Friday, we will have a big release party this Saturday, September 5th at 1pm, replacing our regularly scheduled MtG tournament.
This will be a free event--provided you have or pick up a new Planechase set--and we'll be be running some fairly casual multi-player matches to give this new game system a spin. Those who have been trying it out already have a lot of positive feedback. It appears to be a real addictive game style, but that's not too surprising, considering it's Magic, through and through.
The first 15 sign-ups get a copy of the unique Tazeem Plane promo card!
Below is the Planechase write up ripped straight from the WotC boards:

Collector's Highlights
- There will be four Planechase Game Packs released on September 4th, 2009: Elemental Thunder, Metallic Dreams, Strike Force, and Zombie Empire.
- Each game pack contains 10 all-new plane cards, a ready-to-play 60-card deck, a six-sided planar die, and a Planechase strategy insert with multiplayer rules.
- Each of the 60-card decks includes 8 rares, and is composed of cards from throughout Magic's history—including a preview card from Zendikar in each deck.
- The 10 oversized plane cards in each game pack comprise a planar deck. These plane cards, 40 in all, feature all-new artwork depicting some of the exotic realms of the Magic multiverse.
- Each of the cards in the 60-card decks is black-bordered and tournament legal. This means that these cards are legal for use in any tournaments where the original printings are still legal.
- Planechase release events will be held September 4-6, 2009.
