    I do appreciate Sealed so we can see what is going on with pools and people don't always know what to draft at first sight. How about some sort of Team Sealed shenanigans? 3v3 or 4v4 round robin would be able to fill your usual game capacity. Or a game of 2 headed giant in the middle or something?
    Anything teamed would keep all the Sealed flavour that we all know and love, while allowing you to feasibly chose 1v1 or 2v2 formats, depending on how many people will be there for your "contractually unobligated PPR".

    For Scooch, the lack of "until end of turn" isn't what makes it acorn, it's the targeting of a "dice result".

      @GrizonII 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Worth noting that there are non-acorn cards that change die results (e.g. Xenosquirrels) though I don't think any of them use "target" (and hence there's some timing weirdness with Scooch that they don't have).

    Sealed is much better for demonstrating what the cards in the set do, and it also keeps the flavor of a prerelease. Draft can lead to some cards falling by the wayside more easily. I like the moments where you see a third Chance-Met Elves 😂. Please do Sealed, especially because it's now Play Boosters, so someone's pool could potentially be juiced. I like that variance. Also, when you get the contract settled, please please please invite Maldhound up for Thunder Junction pretty please.
