Hello again to all readers and fellow FoW players!
It's quite some big news that FoW boosters can be drafted too! (if you haven't heard about it yet)
So i wasn't there, when Shishido-San explained about the Booster Draft in the Anime Festival Asia event,
But today, when we were waiting for Shishido-San's departure, we suddenly had the Booster Draft.
So, the things you should note :
1. Have a minimum of 4 players. More people dividable by 4 is better. But i think 4 is enough.
2. Prepare 20 Booster Packs (for 4 players). Each player holds 5 Booster Packs. Any Wave is fine, you can choose among yourselves. (we did with 3 Wave 1 Booster packs and 2 Wave 2 booster packs for each player)
3. Get around 10-15 of each Element of Magicstones
4. Sleeves (not necessary)
How to play :
Dividing the cards:
1. Divide the boosters evenly.
2. After all players got their boosters, every players open the 1st booster packs.
3. Put the magicstones together
4. Take 1 card from the pack, and make sure noone looks at your booster packs/ or the cards you chose.
5. Give it to the person next to you (to your left/right you can decide by yourselves).
6. Take again 1 card from the pack, and give it to the person next to you by the direction you decided.
7. Repeat number 6 until all cards are divided evenly.
8. Open the 2nd booster packs and repeat from number 3. But this time, you should give the remaining cards counter-direction. (if the 1st booster is to your left, the next booster should be to your right, and the next after that to the left again.)
9. Repeat for the 3rd packs, 4th packs, and 5th packs from step 3-7.
Note : you can take any cards from the packs, but only 1 for each time.
You can take any ruler, because it will be your advantage if you do.
Deck building:
1. After the packs are opened and all cards divided evenly to the players, each players should have around 50 cards (i'm not sure the exact number)
2. Players are given 10 minutes to build their decks, each main decks consist of 30 cards, and the magicstones deck should be maximum of 20 cards.
3. You can use your Ruler if you got 1 from the packs drafting, or if you didn't get one, you don't have to use any Ruler. (you still can get a Magicstone card each turn.)
4. You can use any Ruler if you want, but make sure you decided it before the draft started. (if you want to use TD-only Rulers, or if you want to use any Rulers, you choose among yourselves).
So at the end of Deck building session, each players will have exactly 30 cards in their Main Deck (regardless of the Elements), and at maximum of 20 cards in their Magicstone Deck.
Playoff / Pairings : (i'm not sure about this one, but this is according to how we drafted with Shishido-San before. If there any official statement about this, i will update this session).
1. The 4 players will first play with the person in front of them
2. The game last at maximum 20-25 minutes.
3. After 20-25 minutes, if the game hasn't end, there should be 1 last turn for each of the players, starting from the next players.
Example : now is turn A, which is already 20 minutes, so both A and B have another last turns. So, after A's turn which is minute-20, B still take turn, and after that, A takes the last turn.
4. If after the last turns the game still hasn't end, Check the Lifepoints, the player that have more lifepoints wins. If the lifepoints is the same, do Jan-Ken-Pon. (that's what we did before.. but maybe you can decide what to do among yourselves).
5. After the first pairing, the winner plays against another winner, and the remaining plays again.
6. Repeat step 3 and 4.
7. After pairing 2, the standing should be 1 player have 2 wins, 2 player have 1 win, and 1 player have 2 loses.
8. The standing should be the player who have 2 wins, win the draft, the player who lose to the 1st in the last pairing will be 2nd, and another player who has 1 win be the 3rd, and the people with 2 loses will be the 4th.
Example : Players are A, B, C, D
1st pairing A vs B, C vs D
A wins, and D wins.
2nd pairing A vs D, B vs C
A wins, and B wins.
So, the standing should be
1st : A
2nd : D
3rd : B
4th : C
The winners pick :
1. Take all the rares, the SRs, and the Rulers together.
2. The 1st choose first, continuing with the 2nd, and the 3rd, and the 4th and so on, the remaining cards should be taken by the players who drafted it.
Example :
Rares are 1-23
1 is taken by A
2 is taken by D
3 is taken by B
4 is taken by C
5 is taken by A again
6 is taken by D again
7 is taken by B again
8 is taken by C again, and so on till 23
all commons and uncommons should be taken by each of their respective owner.
This is our sudden Booster Draft in the airport today,
So i thought maybe i can give some of the rules and how-to to Draft the Booster packs.
I think these rules still incomplete, i will ask for more info from Shishido-San,
And if anything here is incorrect, i will fix it soon.
If you have anything, just ask me. I will gladly explain anything i know.
And lastly, I've never thought that Booster Drafting can be this fun! LOL
You guys totally have to try it soon!
Make sure to keep watch on our blog daily.
Lastly,
Thanks for reading this blog, and
