MTG Conspiracy Release Day Events – TODAY!
Friday, June 6th, 2014
TODAY, Battleground will be celebrating Magic’s awesome new release, the multi-player draft set, Conspiracy! Starting at 6:30pm we will begin seating 8-man pods of Conspiracy Draft, which looks to be the most fun casual format since Commander! We plan to continue seating drafts until the early hours of the morning so come down and help us make the Conspiracy launch an all-night event people won’t forget.
A limited amount of older booster packs will be available for those that might like to “spice up” their draft when opportunities arise. Sets will include Modern Masters, Mirrodin, Darksteel, Onslaught, and several more!
Friday, June 6th – TODAY!

How Conspiracy Drafts Will Work:
• Players will be sat in 8-man pods as soon as we have 8 people registered. Seating will be determined randomly.
• Each player will receive 3 Conspiracy booster packs to draft. The draft itself and deck building period will not be timed.
• Once all players have finished building their decks, we will seat the first round by breaking the players up into two different 4-player groups. Each group will play one game together.
• Each event will last for 2 rounds, each round will have a 75 minute time limit.
• At the conclusion of the first round we will take the winner and the last player eliminated (the top 2) from each of the 4 player groups and pair them together in round 2. We will also take the first two players eliminated from each group (bottom 2) and pair them together in round 2.
• If time expires in a round and the top two players have not been determined, the two players with the most life will be considered the “winners.”
• In round two, the group made up the the “winners” will receive 3 booster packs for each player they eliminate from the game. Players that are not in the “winners group” will receive 1 booster pack for each player they eliminate.
• The only way to win booster packs is to eliminate players from the game in round 2.
• Players will be expected to provide any additional product their draft may require.

Secret: I highly recommend it.
