An Important Announcement for our Magic Players

Hello, FNM players, drafters and Sunday casuals!

Just a quick announcement to remind you that our events on Friday, February 11th and Monday, February 14th will be run by our capable friend, Mark Wells. Mark will be provided with all the prizes and product you're used to seeing on those days

Our usual Sunday casual event on Sunday, February 13th has been cancelled, but will resume the following Sunday!

In addition, I will not be in the store between Tuesday, February 8th and Thursday, February 17th. My apologies for the inconvenience. I will do my utmost to ensure the store binders are well-stocked prior to me absence and that the store has an updated buylist if you're looking to sell your cards to us! I will be entirely unavailable during that time, so unfortunately, there will be no response at lamoodmagic@gmail.com if you e-mail me then. Sorry!

See you all this Friday for our normal FNM! Remember: Mirrodin Besieged is legal for play and the store will have a full supply of all the cards you need!

Announcing: The Mirrodin Besieged Release!

Didn't get enough of Mirrodin Besieged at the pre-release? I know I didn't! So I'm doing it all again this Sunday!

It is my pleasure to announce the Mirrodin Besieged Release at L.A. Mood this Sunday, February 6th, starting at 11:00 a.m.

Our format for the event, just like the pre-release, is Sealed Deck, with one difference - the factionalized packs are no more! All participating players will recieve 3 generic Mirrodin Besieged boosters and 3 Scars of Mirrodin boosters, as well as one copy of the release promo, Thopter Assembly (Open the Vaults players rejoice!)

As before, the cost of entry will be $28, and the prizes will remain spectacular!

A few details in advance of the event:

1) Once again, we will be logging the contents of our packs. Hopefully, increased familiarity with the process will keep things speedy!

2) Once again, we will not be registering your eventual decklist. However, there is the possibility of a random deck-check this weekend; I will be checking to ensure that the only cards in your deck are cards listed on your checklist. Once again, the actual decklist is not being checked: only that the deck contains cards from your sealed pool and your sealed pool alone.

3) Other, incremental improvements to the pairing, announcement and seating systems will be in place to continue to provide you the smoothest and easiest release tournament ever, with an absolute minimum of voice cracks.

And that's it! See you on Sunday - try to arrive by 10:30 a.m. in order to keep the event running smoothly! Let's try to beat the pre-release attendance record of 52!

As always, questions, comments and suggestions can be e-mailed to lamoodmagic@gmail.com

An Important Announcement for Magic Players!

Hello, everyone. I wanted to clear up a bit of confusion regarding the upcoming schedule of events for February at L.A. Mood.

First, to confirm what you've heard: Yes! L.A. Mood will start hosting drafts on Monday night in February, starting Monday, February the 7th.

Secondly, you might have noticed that the first day of February is a Tuesday. In order to make the switchover work smoothly, we will still be drafting on Tuesday, February the 1st.

The schedule for February's events will be posted shortly! Be on the lookout for a fully-updated and comprehensive list of Magic events for February at L.A. Mood.

Once again, the first Monday draft will be February the 7th.

As always, comments and questions can be sent to lamoodmagic@gmail.com

Announcing: The Mirrodin Besieged Prerelease!

Hello to all our Magic Players!


As you know, the Mirrodin Besieged Prerelease is fast approaching - and there are some important details that make this a Prerelease unlike any you've attended before!

Our Prerelease will begin at 11:00 on Sunday, January the 30th - but try to arrive by 10:30 in order to help keep the event running smoothly. As always, the event is Sealed Deck, however, when you arrive for your packs you'll have to declare your faction - either Mirran or Phyrexian. Mirran players will receive 3 "Mirran-aligned" booster packs, containing only the Mirran-aligned cards from the set, as well as 3 Scars of Mirrodin boosters and 1 copy of the Promotional Hero of Bladehold. Phyrexian players will receive 3 "Phyrexian-aligned" boosters, containing only the Phyrexian-aligned cards from the set, as well as 3 Scars of Mirrodin boosters and 1 copy of the Promotional Glissa, the Traitor. The promotional cards are yours to keep, but you can't play with them during the event!

























The cost of the packs will be $28. If you feel strongly about which faction you'd like to declare for, be sure to let me know but January 28th, so I can set your faction pack aside! All over faction packs will be distributed on a first-come, first-serve basis.


In order to avoid confusion, I have decided on the following tournament organization rules:


1) There will not be submitted deck lists. Players will operate on the "honor system" regarding sideboarding in between events.


2) There will be deck logging - another player will open your packs and list the cards inside. However, unlike previous prereleases, there will not be pack swapping - the packs you purchased are the packs you will be playing with - you just won't be the one to open them!


Looking forward to seeing everyone there!


As always, questions and comments can be directed towards lamoodmagic@gmail.com

An Important Update for Pauper Sundays!

Hello, Pauper players!

As you know, this Sunday, January 9th, is our inaugural Pauper event at L.A. Mood. I'm very excited to have everyone come out and show off their creativity in this uniquely restricted Magic format.

However, based on several discussions with excellent, experienced players of Pauper both online and offline, I have come to the decision to expand the list of banned cards for our L.A. tournament. The official ban list (found here) will be updated to include the following cards. In addition to Cranial Plating, and the existing Legacy ban list:

- Tree of Tales is banned.

- Great Furnace is banned.

- Vault of Whispers is banned.

- Seat of the Synod is banned.

- Ancient Den is banned.

This ban list is intended to reduce the extremely consistent, aggressive explosiveness of the Affinity deck in Pauper, without eliminating its ability to function as an aggro deck.

Paper Pauper is a living format with many variant ban lists. In order to keep our L.A. tournaments fun, exciting, and varied experiences, I will be updating our store's ban list as the year goes on - sometimes adding, sometimes removing. Be on the lookout for an official flyer with out official ban list in the near future!

As always, questions and comments can be directed to lamoodmagic@gmail.com

Sad news, everyone.

Unfortunately, due to an oversight on my part, I was unable to secure this month's FNM Promo shipment for L.A. Mood. I know many of you were very excited about the Everflowing Chalice, and I sincerely apologize. I've already taken steps to ensure this won't happen again.

By way of apology, I have undertaken the following changes to this month's FNM prize structure:

1) First and Second Place, in addition to their customary Booster pack, will also recieve a foil promotional Nissa Revane, first distributed to Xbox players who purchased Duels of the Planeswalkers!

2) Third and fourth place will be guaranteed an FNM promo foil from past months as opposed to the customary inclusion in the door prize selection. In addition, third and fourth place can elect to replace their section of an FNM promo foil and instead receive an "IOU" for a foil promotional Liliana Vess, which becomes eligible for store distribution on March 31st!

3) All-new, exciting and surprising door prizes and handouts! Come on out to find out what these are!

4) Finally, the customary nominal cost for the first pop or snack will be waived for each FNM participant for this month.

I hope this covers everyone's concerns. As always, you can e-mail questions and comments to lamoodmagic@gmail.com

Possible Change in Event Scheduling - a Poll!

Hello, Magic Players!

For this upcoming year, I'm considering making a change in the schedule of our events: from Tuesday night drafting to Monday night drafting. The time would remain the same, 6:15.

This is definitely a departure from the established schedule! I've considered many factors up until this point, but the last piece of information I need comes from you, the players! What do you think of the proposed change? Let me know at lamoodmagic@gmail.com

Schedule of Magic: The Gathering Events for January 2011

Tuesday, January 4th - Triple-Scars Draft; $12 entry, boosters provided. 6:15 p.m. start.

All of our FNM events have sanctioned booster draft side events available based on interest.

The FNM prize foil for January 2011 is the outstanding Everflowing Chalice. A staple in control decks and ramp decks everywhere, this awesome art is sure to occupy a place of pride in your Standard decks for the rest of the summer! I know I can't wait to earn my four copies!

As always, questions and comments can be send to lamoodmagic@gmail.com.

Another New Magic: The Gathering Event!

I'm very pleased to announce the start of a brand-new event for L.A. Mood Magic Players: Sunday Afternoon Legacy Pauper!

Legacy Pauper is a format designed for players who are sick of trying to get four copies of the latest and greatest and most expensive Mythic Rares out there. Your 60-card deck (and 15-card sideboard) must contain Common cards and only Common cards - and better yet, Common cards from all of Magic's sets are allowed!

Legacy Pauper Decks are built just the same as any other 60-card deck with a 15-card sideboard; four copies of any card maximum, with the exception of basic lands. Pauper is a great format for players with every size collection - since we all usually have more commons than we know what to do with. A full explanation of the Pauper format (plus the banlist) can be found here: http://www.wizards.com/magic/tcg/resources.aspx?x=magic/rules/pauper.

If you don't know if a card is a common or not (since many older cards were printed before the red/gold/silver/black rarity symbols), a quick check in Gatherer (http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Default.aspx) will tell you if it was ever a Common at any point in its history.

Sunday Afternoon Pauper runs every Sunday, starting January the 9th, at 12:30 p.m., and runs alongside our Elder Dragon Highlander Events - you can participate in either every Sunday. FNM Prize foils available to the top placements and the more participation, the more prizes there will be!

As always, e-mail questions and comments to lamoodmagic@gmail.com

New Magic: The Gathering Event!

I'm very pleased to announce the start of a brand-new event for L.A. Mood Magic Players: Sunday Afternoon Elder Dragon Highlander.

Elder Dragon Highlander (or EDH) is a fabulous casual format for players looking to make use of the cards they have in their collections that are fun to play, but don't quite cut it in today's modern decks. It's a format that wants you to play big, splashy, expensive sorceries and creatures for some wild fun you just can't get anywhere else in Magic!

Elder Dragon Decks are built around a General, a Legendary Creature whose colors define the kind of mana and colors of spells your deck contains. EDH decks consist of 100 cards, one of which is the General, and no two cards can have the same English name (with the exception of the five basic lands). A full explanation of the format can be found at http://mtgcommander.net/rules.php.

Elder Dragon Highlander will be a fully supported format in 2011 with the release of the Commander boxed set from Wizards of the Coast! Get in on the ground floor and start crafting your winning strategies and devastating decks!

Sunday Afternoon Elder Dragon Highlander runs every Sunday, starting January the 9th, at 12:30 p.m., and runs alongside our Pauper Events - you can participate in either every Sunday. FNM Prize foils available to the top placements and the more participation, the more prizes there will be!

Good news, everyone!

I've set up a dedicated Magic e-mail account you can use to contact me any time, night or day, about all things Magic-related at L.A. Mood - lamoodmagic@gmail.com

Excellent uses of this e-mail address are:

1) Asking me about ordering or pre-ordering Magic products - everything and anything goes! Pre-ordering is the best way to make sure you can get a coveted Duel Deck or From The Vault collection - don't miss out!

2) Asking me about specific cards you'd like to find. I don't have a complete picture of our inventory yet, but if you've been all over London and just can't find what you're looking for, the very least I can do is keep an eye out for you as well. Singles or playsets, from older sets or newer ones, if I don't have them I'll do my best to find them for you.

And many more!

December FNM prize foils:



















Wild Nacatl has proved to be a powerhouse in Extended and Legacy Zoo decks. He was a pretty good man (cat?) in Standard too while he was legal, but not quite as strong without the Ravnica or Revised duals to power him out, especially when combined with fetch lands. Still, a pretty solid duder and I'll be looking to pick him up for my draft cube and EDH decks.

Christmas is just around the corner and now is a good time to get your wish lists ready. We still have a few Fire and Lightning premium decks left for the lucky few who are able to snag them. These decks are chock full of burny goodness from Magic past and are sure to make toast out of your opponents. Also, ask about the Jace vs. Chandra duel decks coming out this month. They are reprints of the original deck series with special new art from famed Japanese manga artist Yoshino Himori They are Japanese language only, and we are supposed to be getting a very limited supply. Try and reserve a copy quickly because these are hot and sure not to last very long.

Finally, I would like to announce that I am officially stepping down as the in store representative for L.A. Mood Magic sales and events. I am a bit sad to be handing over the reins, as I have loved being an active part of growing and cultivating our Magic playing community, but I believe that I am leaving this position in some very capable hands. Our new representative has a keen perspective on the game and basically life in general. He is a very approachable guy and a great person to bounce your thoughts and questions off of. I am confident that he will do an excellent job of taking over where I am leaving off. Please welcome Andrew Di Lullo as your new L.A. Mood Magic community manager!

Scars of Mirrodin has arrived and will pave the way for a creative deck-building period as Shards of Alara block rotates from Standard taking M10 along with it in its departure. With all these crazy new artifacts and new mechanics like infect and proliferate, what novel archetypes will rise to the top of the tournament standings? Only time will tell...
The FNM foil for October is Rift Bolt. A powerful tool in the hands of any burn or storm combo player. Again, battle with standard or draft at FNM this month to add this gem to your available grimoire. Please note that there will not be a draft on Friday, October 22nd for FNM. I will be attending Grand Prix Toronto that weekend and will have a stand-in to host the Standard FNM that night.
Finally, come and battle for loot and plunder (or tricks and treats?) at the Scars of Mirrodin Gameday event on Sunday, October 31st. Those in costume will pay a reduced entry fee and I'm sure that I will have some other tricks up my sleeve (and goodies!) to reward our intrepid Halloween revelers.

That's all this time folks,

Jeyo
