See all- Birthday Pick-Your-Poison Draft! (w/ "White Elephant" Packs)1743 S Hayes St apt a, Arlington, VA
I've got a birthday around the corner and will be hosting one of my favorite formats—a "White Elephant" draft! It's Pick-Your-Poison, but all participants are encouraged (nay, required!) to bring 15 cards of their choosing in a custom "pack." Could be 15 storm crows, could be 15 mythic rares--the choice is yours. Those will be randomized and apportioned to every player, who will open it as their first of 3 packs.
Call me if you've signed up and are having trouble finding us: 760-815-1744
If you want to make me a happy birthday boy, I'd gladly accepted donations needed for my cubes as well! Feel free to show up as early as 5:40 for ULTRA-CASUAL Planechase Commander.
Here's how PYP draft works:
I have dozens of sets, including just about every "normal" set printed since Battle for Zendikar, and some older/odder ones like M12, Dark Ascension, and Conspiracy 1 and 2. I've also got deluxe packs: New Phyrexia, Shards of Alara, Iconic Masters, and Ravnica Remastered, to name a few. You choose three different packs (for variety's sake, only one of those packs can be from the last 3 sets) and we all sit down and draft with what we've chosen. The price varies based on what you pick (on average it's $18, which would cover three normal packs and $6 prize support). PRIZES ARE PACK-PER-WIN. If you have cool packs you'd like to open, be my guest! For every pack you bring, I lower the price for you by $3.PACKS PRICE LIST (Note: unlisted Packs are $4, and Masters-marino re-packs, should I have them, are only $1):
