(i) Booster Draft's Explanation
- Booster Draft is a method of play where players have no cards to begin with.
- They are required to have 6 Future Card Buddyfight Booster Packs per player, at the moment of play.
- Players then open 1 pack at a time, choose a card they would like to put in their deck in a pre-determined order (this is known as the “draft”), and then the decks are built right then and there!
Note: Please register at least 30 minutes before the tournament.
(ii) Format
- Swiss Tournament (Swiss-style tournaments allow all participants to play in every round, pairing each player based on their current records).
- Each round will be a best-of-one, with a time limit of 20 minutes.
- Players are initially randomly paired, and subsequently pairings will be done via Swiss draw (e.g. winners vs winners and losers vs losers).
To determine Tie Breakers:
1. The player with lower life loses when time is called.
2. If both players are tied for life points, the game continues until there is a difference in damage at the end of a turn. The player with lower life points at that point loses.
Requirements:
1. Played with 2 or more players (Recommended 8 players for maximum fun).
2. Each player will require 6 Future Card Buddyfight Booster Packs
(iii) Deck Building and Special Rulings
1. Players will build a deck consisting of 30 cards (29 cards + 1 buddy card chosen by you).
2. Players are not required to have a flag card.
3. Players life points will start at 10.
4. Players with no cards in the deck zone will automatically lose the game.
5. Players will draw 6 cards into their hand at the start as per normal.
6. World restriction does not apply to the Booster Draft deck construction. (example: you may have a <<Dragon World>> monster and a <<Magic World>> monster in your deck).
7. Attributes still work as per normal (example: When you have an <<Armordragon>> on your field).
8. Standard game rules apply, except you may have more than 4 copies of the same card in your deck (example: You can have more than 4 copies of Drum Bunker Dragon in the deck).
(iv) Rules
1. Decide on the seating arrangement around the table with a random method.
2. Each person will then proceed to open one of their booster packs and check the cards in the pack
3. Players will now choose 1 card and place it face down in front of you.
4. Once all players have chosen one card and placed it in front of them, pass the remaining cards to person on their left (clockwise direction).
5. From the remaining cards handed over, players will then choose another card and add it to the face down card in front of them.
6. Once the cards have been given out, open the next booster pack.
7. Repeat steps 3 to 6 until the first 3 booster packs have been disseminated.
8. Between the third and fourth booster pack, players are encourage to look at what they have drawn thus far in order to plan what other cards they should draw for the remaining few booster packs.
9. Starting from the fourth booster pack, pass the cards that you did not draft to the player on the right instead (anti-clockwise direction).
10. Once all 6 packs have been opened and disseminated, the draft is over.
11. Each player should ensure that they have 30 cards each and select their buddy from within their deck
