Just getting back into MTG after a brief stint over a decade ago.
I've got a commander deck and been playing with friends, which is a lot of fun. Commander wasn't as big last time I played so it's cool to see how everything has evolved, but I do miss the 1v1 shorter games too.
I did one or two Drafts back in the day and always preferred them because I love nonsense and that everyone is starting from a relatively even footing.
I saw there was a local shop doing a Chaos Draft, which I had never heard of but sounded right up my alley. I recruited a friend and went down and had a good time.
Did I win? Nope.
Did I have fun? Hell yeah.
I expected it mostly to be a way for the store to off-load lesser selling packs, but they gave everyone a Foundations, Strixhaven and Reality Fracture booster each to pass around. There were a lot of cool cards to choose from and I ended up getting a good number of cards to boost my collection. (My old Magic Cards were given away in a fit of mania while moving interstate).
Pic attached is some of the cooler cards I got. I picked the Armageddon card right away out of the first pack I opened because I couldn't pass up the shenanigans (also it looks freaking cool). The owner gave us a choice of three Promos and I chose the Leyline one because it sounds awesome.
Would love any tips for future Drafts or even standard or Commander decks the cards I got would be good in.
Definitely going to go again but would like to be able to win a few more games, so all tips and tricks are welcome.
Would also love to know others thoughts and experiences on Chaos Drafts.
