Join Us for the Magic 2015 Fat Pack Challenge – TONIGHT!

fat Pack Challenge

 

 

The amazing and highly anticipated Battleground Games & Hobbies Fat Pack challenge is back! This time, to celebrate the release of Magic 2015! Join us TONIGHT at your favorite Battleground Games & Hobbies location.

 


Abington and Plainville:
Format: **Fat Pack Sealed**
Date: July 18th, 2014 a FRIDAY
Time: 7:00pm
Entrance Fee: $40.00

 


Core Set 2015 (M15) will be released on Friday, July 18th and we will have a full line-up of events for you to crack packs, build decks and play Magic at both of our stores! The weekend will kick off with our flagship Sealed Deck style event.


The Battleground Fat Pack Challenge is taking place on Friday night, 7/18/14, at both locations (run as our FNM). These are the ultimate sealed events – where you open packs, build a deck and play with just the contents of an M15 Fat Pack!

 

M15_Fat_Pack


The concept of a Fat Pack Challenge is pretty simple. Each player will receive an M15 Fat Pack with which to build a 40 card deck. Players may use ONLY what is inside of their Fat Pack to construct their decks. No additional land will be provided!

 

After building your deck players will compete to win prizes like TShirts, playmats, deck boxes, or Magic promos, and one lucky winner will take home a plaque commemorating their victory.
