Its Prerelease time again and this time its Commander Legends Battle for Baldur's Gate!
This is a very different prerelease being draft and Commander format.
1. Start with 3 Boosters and Draft 2 Cards at a Time
Your Draft pods will be as close to eight players per pod as possible. Players will open and add their foil year-stamped promo to their draft pool before beginning.
Unlike other forms of Commander, you can draft and play as many copies of the same card as you want. Keep an eye out for powerful legendary creatures to play as your commander!
2. Build a 60-Card Commander Deck
Next, build your deck and add the appropriate number of lands to reach 60 cards.
We will have staff on hand to help with any questions! Let your selected commander guide your deck choices. Remember, one unique rule for deckbuilding is that all the cards in your deck must match your chosen Commander's colors.
Each legendary creature in the set can shine with the right suite of cards backing it up!
3. Battle in Groups of Four
After drafting is complete, we will arrange players into tables with as close to four players as possible. Then, let the game commence! During gameplay, all the regular Commander format rules apply.
4. How to win!
Winning isnt everything but you can get your hands on some set boosters. Every player puts one into the prize pool plus we have some extra boosters and promo packs for prizes.
PLUS we will have a weekend champion the person who accumulates the most points over the whole weekend will receive a Secret Lair x Stranger Things
Every pod will award
1st 4 points, 2nd 3 points, 3rd 2 points, 4th 1 point.
After the first round we will pair players together in pods based on their scores. Highest to lowest, you may play with same people again.
Number of rounds
Rounds will be 80mins and the number of rounds will be decided by the allocate time available and how number of players (normal swiss rules) Expect to play atleast 2 games maybe 4!
