Title: Sealed Deck Rules
Post by: crustpope on July 12, 2009, 07:46:48 PM: 1. Are the players suppose to choose their three booster packs "Blind" without seeing which deck they have been given?
2. Are any started decks legal or just the most recent G/H (I am 99.9999% positive I know the answer to this so dont think I am a noob for asking it)
3. Do weapon class enhancements stick now? I know Rob let them at nats in 08 but I dont know what the consensus has been since then.
4. For those who have played, does having weapons stick make much of a difference?

3. Dont they always stick?

You can even trade your whole starter if you want

2. For both boosters and starters, any available can be used. However, since A/B and C/D are no longer in print, that doesn't leave many options.

3. Since the G/H starter decks come with Warrior-Class characters, I don't see why normal rules would not apply. Perhaps you were thinking of Booster Draft?

4. There could always be a situation where battles are won by the numbers, more so in sealed & booster.

5. You can only trade with your first opponent (at the time you create your deck).

Post by: robm on July 12, 2009, 11:30:29 PM: We all agreed at Northeast Regionals that weapons should stick. I don't think there should be any other different rules other then the one site thing.
