The drafters yearn for Battlebond
I kinda like the 2-picks-per-pack as it can be easier to get into an archetype or cut something off, I have to think this is more related to 8-man pods failing to fire at LGSes though. I don’t have any data but anecdotally it seems like tabletop drafting is down and maybe this is WotC’s attempt to try to fix that? It’s a shame because I’ve always felt the 8 person, 1 booster box, 3 round setup was perfect.
Funny that the new 30 pack play boxes still don’t work nicely with this format either 😜
@andrew @MysticKetchup I still think 30 pack boxes were a weird number to settle on. 24 packs would have been much more sensible. I'd advocate for them being only two stacks wide too, it makes product distribution for sealed much easier.
