Those guys at Wizards Of The Coast just keep on churning out new core sets, and players just keep on buying them. Magic is a very difficult hobby to maintain, especially how it turns into a money sink.

I haven’t played Magic for that long but I wanted to try out the new core set to see how it fairs. The best way to get started is to buy the Fat Pack; you get the following to start your collection:

  • 40-card basic land pack
  • Eight 15-card booster packs from the M11 core set
  • Player’s guide with visual encyclopedia
  • Special edition Spindown life counter
  • Excerpt from Planeswalker Novel
  • Nice box to keep it all in

Now the one thing I am disappointed about in this Fat Pack, is the lack of plastic dividers for your cards. Older Fat Packs used to have them, but it seems they are skimping on what you get these days. However, you do get 8 booster packs which is pretty good. All I need now is several hours to plan and create my deck of destruction!
