For Draft events, players will draft from 3 booster packs. To draft, open a booster pack, select one card, and pass the remaining cards to the left. This is repeated until the player has selected 14 cards. Ordinary sites and Avatars are not selected. For pack 2, pass to the right, and for pack 3 pass to the left. After drafting, build a 25 card spellbook and 12 card Atlas. Players can supplement their decks with any ordinary sites or avatars.
