Date & Time: TBD
Location: Ulrich Student Center
Entry Fee: FREE
General Information
The rules for this tournament follow the standard procedure for any draft. This is a limited event which means you are only allowed to use the cards you get at the event and lands provided. All lands must be returned! You get to keep the cards that you draft.
Each player is required to bring 3 packs of booster cards from any of the allowed sets. See below for restrictions. They do not have to be from the same set, nor do they have to be from the current standard sets. For example, if you would like to bring a pack each of Ice Age, Mirage, and Prophecy, that is perfectly okay!
Restrictions
You may not use packs from any of the following sets:
- Alpha (They have rounded edges)
- Collectors Edition (They have gold backs)
- The Dark (8 Cards / Pack)
- Chronicles (12 Cards / Pack)
- Fallen Empires (8 Cards / Pack)
- Homelands (8 Cards / Pack)
- Unglued (8 Cards / Pack)
*Note that we are in fact allowing Unhinged cards to be used here. We feel it adds to the fun of the game.*
Banned Cards:
Unfortunately these are cards that wizards does not allow to be used, and for good reason.
Any Ante Card
Chaos Orb
Falling Star
In the event that all packs provided come from the same Block of sets there may be further restrictions placed.
Deck Construction
Remember that you will be drafting a pool of 45 cards. Your final deck must have at least 40 cards in it. Any cards you draft that are not in your deck are considered on your sideboard unless they are banned in which case they are not considered to be availble. Lands will be provided by the Gaming Club for deck construction and must be returned when you are finished in the tournament.
Format
The draft will be a swiss format most likely consisting of 3 rounds and then a top 4. This is subject to change however.
Feel free to ask if you have any further questions!!
