What do people think of the announcement?
I am a bit annoyed at the simic one contains only 1 simic card, and actually contains gruul cards...

I don't understand why Gyre Sage isn't in the simic deck - it would be an actual simic card, which is a solid card by itself, and would play well into the ramp into fatties theme the deck has - it does ramp itself, and it will evolve when the fatties hit the field...

The Simic deck is horrendous in terms of theme. I was hoping for a nice deck based around evolve that included mid-range creatures for the final win. Instead it's just an average ramp deck.... not even a great one.
Does it even have a single Simic creature? I don't think it does......

Not only does the U/G deck not have a single Simic creature, it only has one Gatecrash creature... and it's R/G. not U/G.
There are a total of 10 Gatecrash cards, (I'm not counting Naturalize , as it's in M13 and Innistrad as well.). 3 of those are Red (the only 3 red splashed in the main board), and 4 are in there because you need a more reliable way to get red mana.
That leaves 3 Urban Evolution as the only semi-playable Gatecrash cards in this Gatecrsh Event Deck.
I could reach into a random pile of cards, and pull out a better deck.
...Oh well, it has Thragtusk , it will sell out in minutes.

I'm pretty mad at the Boros deck, as I had just purchased several singles to fill out my Boros Weenies deck, and the deck contains several of them.
I can't even justify calling the Simic deck Simic. Blech.

Yea the simic deck is pretty much terrible. It doesn't even get a single Hinterland Harbor .
The Boros deck seems to have gotten all of the love this round. The Silverblade Paladin , Spark Trooper , Ash Zealot , and Clifftop Retreat is enough to sign me up. However, you even get 2x Boros Charm . With this, you can easily make a decent Boros deck for fnm. Sadly, I see this selling out pretty fast for those reasons alone...
