Prerelease is your first opportunity to get your hands on the newest Magic: The Gathering set and explore what it has to offer. Prerelease Packs contain everything a player needs to be guided through deck building and begin facing off in epic one-on-one matches.

In-store Participation: You must participate in the event to receive your prerelease kit; if you’re unable to attend, your ticket will be refunded.

Prizing: Each player who participates in all three rounds of the event will receive two The Hobbit booster packs.

Product is reserved for players attending the prerelease event; any extra product will be available on release day.

For Sunday's Two-Headed Giant event, you are only guaranteed to play in the event if you arrive with a teammate. Solo players will be paired by the tournament organizer if possible.
