NOTE: If we have 16 or more people in the draft, we will split into 2 pods with prize split for the top 2 in each pod. If you're not sure how to draft, come in early or on another day and we'll be happy to explain it to you. In a nutshell - you get 3 booster packs, open your pack, pick a card, and pass it to the person next to you. You continue picking and passing until you have 45 cards which you keep. You build a minimum 40 card deck from the cards you selected - the store provides the basic lands (please remember to return them at the end of the night). Then we play a small tournament to determine the winner. These are DCI sanctioned events. Straight swiss - no cut. Sign up for our web-site and then register for this event. It will guarantee you a spot and we will send you a reminder e-mail a day before the event. | ||
