D.A._Sakuyamon Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 [quote name='Blud' timestamp='1312597926' post='5418426'] Figured it out. You have to get an account on [url="http://ccg.com"]http://ccgdecks.com[/url] and go to "Drafting" and wait for the host to set it up.

[/quote] Drafting is a type of tournament consisting of 4 to 8 players where each player gets 3 15-card packs. At the start of the draft, each player opens one pack, takes 1 card of their choice, and passes all the other cards to the left. Then you take what's passed to you take one more card, and pass the others again. You keep doing this until you take the last card. This process is repeated 2 more times, once for each other pack. After you have your pile of selected cards, you then fill it up with land cards until you have yourself a deck, and then you duel. It takes time to get used to, but [url="http://ccgdecks.com"]http://ccgdecks.com[/url] makes it easy for you. Hope I helped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cloister Posted August 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2011 Seriously, call me a noob, but what does Standard REALLY mean? Are there special rules, special cards you can't use etc.?

Cloister Posted August 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2011 Well, I say, we can use cards from ALL sets, which means, no Standard. There are many good old cards too, that shouldn't be forgotten. But if there is any way to search cards via sets in Cockatrice, then Standard seems fine, since you know, I'm real lazy.

D.A._Sakuyamon Posted August 7, 2011 Report Share Posted August 7, 2011 Not up for drafting and............the problem is that there are to many [s]oped[/s]good old cards. Going by a format, standard preferable (to me) is a good means to balance. You don't have to use cockatrice to look for what cards in standard. I use Gatherer to find cards and then search through name on cockatrice to search and add those cards to the deck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
