Magic: The Gathering Cheap-n-Casual Booster Draft

Every Sunday is Cheap-n-Casual Magic: The Gathering day at I'm Board! Drafting starts at 1:00, so please be a few minutes early for registration. Cost is $10 plus tax, which includes 3 booster packs. No prizes, but you get 3 boosters for cheap, and you keep everything you draft.

We will supply basic Land, which must be returned at the end of the day.

We are still growing our Magic player base, and many folks still are not aware that we are open, so please help spread the word!

Booster draft rules follow:

Each player at the table starts with three unopened booster packs. At the start of a Booster Draft, each player opens a pack and picks the card he or she wants from it. (You can’t see the cards that the other players draft.) Then each player passes the rest of the pack to his or her left. You pick up the pack that was passed to you, select a card, and pass the rest to your left. This process continues until all the cards have been drafted.

Next, each player opens a second pack, but this time, you pass the pack to your right. After all those cards are drafted, you open the third pack and pass to the left again. At the end of the draft, each player has forty-five cards-and unlimited basic lands-to build a deck with. You will have about 30 seconds to pick a card per draft round, and 15-30 minutes to construct your 40-card-minimum deck (the rest of your cards are your sideboard).
