Hey guys,

Sorry for the long delay in me responding to anybody about Nationals. I have a 11 week old and a terrible schedule at work right now. But I wanted to follow up and see what the booster draft consisted of last year. I like to always give different options. I'll be created a poll to help us decide what I can do for the $15 fee, but I do want to at least offer what to offer the same one as last year!

Thanks,
Chris

***Alright guys the poll has been added, please pick your preference as to what you would want to see for booster at Nationals. If one of the ones with an option is chosen we can work it out at a later date!***

If I could also request that you only vote if you are seriously considering playing booster at Nationals. I don't want it skewed based on something you would like to have even though you aren't playing.

I was thinking about a little bit more variety, but if that is what the people want!

Classic booster with one of the new set card boxes (assuming that's how Rob packages it again) included would be spectacular.

If I recall correctly, there was a generous donation made by Josiah Beers (and possibly some others, not sure) to include an extra pack in the draft (I think it was Kings packs) that was not originally going to be included.

That is what Bany was saying, but he couldn't remember the original set. I'll just go over what I can afford for the $15 and put a poll on this thread and go from there!

I like it, but it may be a little hard to acquire . . .

And considering that TLG sells them $12 a pack, I don't believe that we could get 60 cards for $15!

uthminister [BR] · « **Reply #9 on:** April 06, 2015, 09:58:15 AM »

Its better than it used to be. They were once $15 a pack.

Crashfach2002 · « **Reply #10 on:** April 06, 2015, 08:07:00 PM »

OK guys, I have the poll open for booster draft options. Please only vote if you are truly considering playing booster draft at Nationals, so this will only truly be voted on by the people who will be playing! Thanks guys!

uthminister [BR] · « **Reply #11 on:** April 06, 2015, 08:14:29 PM »

What will it be paired up against?

Eragon5 · « **Reply #12 on:** April 06, 2015, 08:20:36 PM »

I probably can't come but I'd be up for booster draft if I did. Since I'd like to give feedback I'll put my vote for option two in writing. Like I said I probably won't be there so this is just my two cents.
To be clear I did not vote in the poll.

Is there any chance we can get an option that includes the new set that Rob is releasing at Nationals?

Red Dragon Thorn · « **Reply #14 on:** April 06, 2015, 08:27:30 PM »

3 Boxes and Women???

YES PLEASE!

Warrior_Monk · « **Reply #15 on:** April 06, 2015, 09:01:04 PM »

TWENTY ANGEL WARS OR RITO

uthminister [BR] · « **Reply #16 on:** April 06, 2015, 11:38:06 PM »

I agree with Gabe that having the new set as part of the option is preferable.

galadgawyn · « **Reply #17 on:** April 07, 2015, 03:52:36 PM »

Obviously most people would want the new set but that depends on things outside of Chris's control. Do we have confirmation that the new set will be another set like disciples/TEC?

I would prefer option 1 or 5 because I like to have more packs to open and cards to work with in a draft. However, if I can make it then I could probably contribute some unlimited, prophets, and apostles packs to the draft and if a couple other people could do the same then we could add that to option 2 or 3 which would be even better imo.

Drrek · « **Reply #18 on:** April 07, 2015, 04:38:04 PM »

I voted for option two based off RDT's comment without looking carefully at the other option. I'd actually prefer option 3 (TEC DI TxP priests kings), though I'd prefer the new set be put in too.

uthminister [BR] · « **Reply #19 on:** April 07, 2015, 05:57:04 PM »

I would prefer to not have Womens packs in the draft pool. I am also willing to donate Prophets packs and/or Kings packs if an option that doesn't include them wins.

I would prefer to not have angel wars considering how there wasn't a lot of good cards

Just out of curiosity, why not?

Guaranteeing that one of the non-Kings/Prophets options wins.

Red · « **Reply #22 on:** April 07, 2015, 07:42:39 PM »

I kind of like having the Blue/Green packs but I also want womens.

I'm also not a fan of Womens in booster. Increases the sites/deck, which I dislike for closed deck categories generally, but also puts Falling Away in play. Given the rarity and the number of people at Nats, that's probably a few floating around. Taking away a rescue is a HUGE advantage to those players, and I do not like it being around generally (also prefer Disciples to TexP to avoid Grapes/Mayhem).

uthminister [BR] · « **Reply #24 on:** April 08, 2015, 08:34:33 AM »

Excellent point about Grapes and Mayhem. I hadn't considered that. But with Disciples you add lots of sites and powerful ones at that...pick your poison there I guess.
