Title: MTG Theros Block Draft - Saturday 14th June
Post by: Steve H on June 03, 2014, 01:28:04 pm
Just in case no-one saw this in the 40k tourney section! :)

Alongside the 40k event I'm planning on running a Theros Block MTG draft event... Looking for between 6-8 players so we can take one of the large tables in the club.

I'll provide all of the boosters etc... Looking at £12 per player including club subs to cover the cost of the cards (no profit for club)  - after the event all the rares/Mythics are laid out and and winner gets 1st pick, 2nd place 2nd pick and so on.

1 booster of each set in Theros block

Great way for new players to grow their collection and get a bunch of games in! Let me know if you're interested!

MTG Theros Draft Sign-ups:

1/. Stevo
2/. Jack H
3/. Guillaume
4/. Mike
5/. Steven A
6/. JD

Sad you can't make it Nick but they'll be plenty more opportunities!

Excellent news Jack!

I'm up for this - are you thinking one booster per release (Theros, BotG etc)

If there are only about 5-6 people why don't we do sealed instead?

DOnt you need 6 boosters per player for sealed? If so it doubles the cost of the event and 20 quid is a tad steep with a good chance of getting nothing out of it

No a lot if people do 4 booster sealed, and 6 person drafts throw off the whole thing

Thats an idea... Would rather give it a few days to see if we can up the numbers first for the draft but ill bear it in mind.

Doesn't look like Dark Sphere ae running anything that day so I guess not... Conspiracy comes out this Friday, so we should be fine a week after that.

Steve, is there any chance you could extend it to some people you know first? I don't have Facebook, and wouldn't really know where to start!
