Drafting 1st Edition

The suggested number of players for a booster draft pod is 8. Each player requires 3 booster packs to draft.

Simultaneously, all players in the draft open 1 of their 3 packs and remove the token card from the pack. Players then choose (draft) 1 card from among the cards remaining in the pack and place it face down into a single pile in front of them. The cards remaining in the pack are then shuffled and passed to the player seated on their left. Players pick up the cards passed to them, and repeats this process until all cards in the pack have been drafted.

The second pack is drafted the same as above, with the exception that packs are passed to the player on the right after each card is drafted.

The third pack is drafted the same as the first pack (passing to the left).

While the drafting of cards is in progress, players may not look at the cards they have already drafted. After the first and second pack has been drafted, there is a 1-minute review period where players may look at the cards they have drafted. At the conclusion of the review period, each player must place the cards they have drafted face down in a single pile in front of them.

Players keep the cards they draft.

Deck Construction

Players construct a 30-card minimum deck (not including the hero card, weapon card(s), and equipment cards) from the cards they have drafted. Note - it’s during the start of game procedure that the exact 30 cards (minimum) are chosen. Typically, a player will change a small number of cards in their deck based on the hero they are about to play against.

If a player cannot construct a 30-card minimum deck from the cards they have drafted (usually because they drafted too many cards spread across multiple different classes), they add Cracked Baubles to their deck until the number of cards in their deck is at least 30. Cracked Baubles are plentifully available as token cards in booster packs.

A deck may only contain Generic cards and cards with the same class as your hero card.

The 3-card limit applicable to constructed formats does not apply to limited formats (sealed deck and booster draft). A booster draft deck may contain any number of copies of each unique card. For example, if you draft 5 copies of Scar for a Scar (1), you may include all 5 copies in your deck.

Deck Construction - Heroes and Weapons

Only young hero cards are legal for limited formats (sealed deck and booster draft).

Players may add young hero and weapon card(s) of their choice to their card pool during deck construction. Cards added this way are from a publicly available pool of young hero and weapon token cards provided by the tournament organizer, or by pooling the token cards opened from the booster packs between all players in the event. (Young hero and weapon token cards are plentifully available in booster packs.)
