Magic League at PAX

So this looks to be the schedule for the Magic events for PAX: http://www.cascadegames.com/PAX-East.html#anchor_84

As someone that tried over the past few years to get back into Magic only to find myself not able to spend enough to really compete/enjoy Friday Night Magic, the idea of the $30 league intrigues me. It sounds like you spend $30 and can play all day or weekend with others only using intro decks, 2 boosters and whatever you win.

Has anyone even done this at PAX? Are there usually plenty of people playing? Are you able to just drop in/drop out as you want?

    I've never done a League, but I may give it a try at PAX East, considering the rest of the schedule. I typically prefer to draft at big events like this, so I'm a little disappointed to see that it's mostly four and six pack sealed tournaments instead of drafting.

    As there's no draft on the schedule, I expect them to be available on a fire on demand basis.

    I expect that several people will also have Standard, Modern, and EDH decks for casual / open play.
