Linkissä on kirjoitusvirhe. Theres a typo in the link.

Its my turn six, I drop my Grove of the Guardian and pass with my 2 birds on D. My opponent tanks and comes up with: alpha strike, I chump and make an 8/8, then second main he casts Righteous Authority on his attacking creature. I untap and Sundering Growth the Authority and Populate my token.

I believe your opponent told me this same story afterwards from his point of view in the prerelease.

P.S. to the pre release article.  In everyone's Guild Pack, did you get two rares?  I mean you got the foil one of your guild, plus an additional rare from your guild?  In each of the pre releases my Selesnya packs came with Grove of the Guardian and (Wayfaring Temple and Collective Blessing).  I am hearing rumblings that this was not the case in other guild packs.

Well, it atleast should have been with 2 rares; prefoil and guildrare.

Its known that theres distribution problems, some had extra rare in their golgari packs for example.. Made already lopsided pools even more unbalanced.

I've  heard rumours that the guildpacks weren't totally randomized cards from guild colors, but that every guild had 8 preset variations of guildpack contents.
Unfortunately I don't remember what I had in my guildpacks anymore. I  believe  there was prerelease foil + another rare though, but I'm  not 100% sure.

For example me and a player who was opening his pool next to me had totally same 15 cards in our faction packs (Izzet).
