I should clarify - this is original Jumpstart 2020

I got myself a jumpstart bootser box, excited to put together my first "battle box" to play with friends and introduce new players to the game. I only got a couple of true duplicate packs, but not a single green theme - which seems odd? I guess they don't color balance the boxes, and I just got unlucky, but it kinda sucks.

I could use advice - to get some green packs, is it wiser to just buy singles, or trust the probability that some future box won't be missing all the green packs, as well?

I've got a rules question, because if this works, it's one heck of a flavor win: Can [[Doors of Durin]] bring out [[The Watcher in the Water]] tapped and attacking, or will The Watcher in the Water be unable to attack due to the stun counters?

I'm planning on getting the Food and Fellowship deck, or getting the blue-green elf deck. I'm new to the format and I don't have any commander decks, so I guess one of these is going to be my first!

You said you already tried to order yours - are pre-orders open at local game stores? I'm going to be at the pre-release tomorrow, so I guess I'll try to order mine then!

Ooh, I hadn't considered what would happen if you controlled two or more copies - thanks for clarifying that!

Makes sense - thanks!

Newbie question, but suppose more than one player has a copy of [[Long List of the Ents]] on the battlefield. Can you note a creature type that has already been noted by an opponent?
