Having never been to a pre release before what goes on there? Can we purchase cards for the new set? Or do we just play with the cards given?

It's a sealed deck tournament.  In this particular case you will recieve 3 Scars of Mirrodin boosters and 3 boosters containing cards from Mirrodin Besieged.  The unique twist to this one that they haven't done before is that you choose whether or not you want to be Mirran or Phyrexian and the Mirrodin Besieged boosters you get will only contain cards for that faction.

Not until the actual release day, February 4th.  That's the fun of pre-releases, getting to play with cards a week early.

Always a good idea to bring things like paper, pens, dice, etc.

P/T at Home Depot while I I'm in school and likely F/T during the summer if I don't take more classes.

In case anyone was wondering, Tezzeret is unaligned and has a chance to be in either faction and either set of boosters.

Probabbly, we usually don't start handing out packs until about 10:15.
