Core Set 2020 Promo Packs

Post by dragsamou » Tue Jul 16, 2019 7:00 am

Hi Members

I'm working on a very long and consuming update on top of other updates.
I have a real problem with the Core Set 2020 Promo Packs (Promo Pack and Premium Promo Pack) that have replaced those Promos as I don't know if I should create a New specific subsection or add them in the previous subsections where they supposed to belong to:

Draft Weekend
Friday Night Magic
Magic Open House
Magic Weekend

https://magic.wizards.com/pt-br/events/promotions
https://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/a ... 2019-03-12
https://wpn.wizards.com/en/article/ever ... romo-packs
https://wpn.wizards.com/en/article/m20- ... hould-know
https://wpn.wizards.com/en/article/mich ... romo-packs

Also I've heard that the Promo Packs doesn't exist in all languages:

English = Confirmed
French = Confirmed
German = Confirmed
Italian = Confirmed

I haven't seen any on Yahoo Japan but I am looking of course.

Looking to buy all languages as usual if anyone has any leads.

Cheers

Hi Mark

I do confirm that they do exist in Japanese, but they aren't given that easily apparently.

Hi Alexis:

I looked at some of the official communication again:
https://wpn.wizards.com/en/article/mich ... romo-packs
https://wpn.wizards.com/en/article/ever ... romo-packs

What stood out for me was that they are meant to replace all previous prize support and wrap it all into a single promo pack; to wit:
the new consolidated prize material that support all in in-store play
As for me, this suggests the creation of a new subsection, possibly with a link from all previous subsections.

Well, my only contact in Brazil has told me that they haven't got any of the promo packs in Portuguese, so maybe they don't run tournaments etc.

I will keep looking

Thanks for keeping track of all this.

As of now, Mark, the only open question is Korean. Russian was confirmed, too, although the page doesn't reflect it yet.

My Korean Dealer (k-MTG) tells me that there are no Promo or Premium Promos in Korean.

Let's see if it will be same for Throne of Eldraine Promo/Premium packs as the contents will be different from Core Set 2020.

Hi Guys,

Just to help because I'm buzzy with my own data base about thoses famous promo pack cards and it's (was) difficult....

So just a Idea for you .... I have made in my own Excell files a another section called like as for example "Core 2020 Promo cards" just down Core 2020 Set.

In this one, I have a column where I can notify DA or PL.

Da means that this card are promo one dated, PL means that's a promo card with this famous Planeswalker symbol.
In the same one section I have add FNM cards, Weed end promo cards etc... with a small notes.

Thoses FNM cards are not like before because you can find them anyway... in Regular or Foil versions in thoses famous Promos packs...

Of course it's a Excell files.... so different than a Web page .... but since this "milkshake" it will be more easy perhaps for you to create each time a Promos Sections for each new expansions because .... what we'll be perhaps surprised to see what will happen tomorrow :-s

It's perhaps a "turning" in a certain way to do now to have more easy things to enter for later.

You can called that section "Complete Promo cards Pack since..." or whatever....

Just a idea to help :-D

Best

Eric

Sections, whether old or new, are in the purview of dragsamou, the admin. You'd need to wait for his response.

For the rest of us, some might find it helpful if you'd turn your excel sheet into a publicly shared google doc. But I can't really advise since I'm not collecting promo cards, just can't help having a bunch ;-).

All best w/ your collection!

Just heard from my Korean supplier that they do not have any of the Promo or Premium Promo Boosters for Throne of Eldraine and in future they are only getting Draft Boosters in Korean.

So that has saved a bit of money.

It also looks like there are only three booster variations for sets and expansions now, which is a change from the 5,3,3 that I have been used to, this will save a bit of money at least.
