Rough Drafts: Core Set 2019

by SaffronOlive // Jul 13, 2018

Core Set 2019 is upon is, which means it's time to delve into the new limited format. Core set limited has a history of being hit or miss, and coming off Dominaria (widely held as one of the best limited formats of all time) it will be interesting to see how Core Set 2019 measures up. Can we open some sweet cards and maybe win some games along the way? Let's get to the video and find out!

First, a quick reminder: if you enjoy the Rough Drafts series and the other video content on MTGGoldfish, make sure to subscribe to the MTGGoldfish YouTube channel to keep up on all the latest and greatest.
