Magic the Gathering: Chaos Draft at Gnome Games Appleton East

Appleton East

Are you ready for the Chaos over at Gnome Games Appleton East!?

Thursday, June 11th at 5:30pm is our Chaos Draft at Gnome Games Appleton East!

  • $30 entry
  • 5:30pm Start Time

This special Magic the Gathering event is a Chaos Draft! We’ll have up to 2 pods of 8, with each pod having 24 different packs to choose from. Each pack is put face-up for all of the players to see at the start of the draft. Players in each pod are put in a random order, 1-8. The first player in each pod will pick from their 24 possible packs, then the second, etc. When it gets to the 8th (or last) player, that player will pick their first pack, then pick their second pack; with the order continuing 7 – 1. After the first player picks their second pack, they’ll pick their third and it will go through the player order one last time 2-8. Until everyone has their 3 packs!

Players then do a 3 pack draft with those packs that they’ve picked, build 40 card minimum decks and then will play 3 rounds! Each round will be Win-A-Match, Win-A-Promo Pack; and the over all winner of each pod will win a special pack from the Gnome Games Vault!

What is Riftbound?

Riftbound is a collectable trading card game featuring a vast array of characters and locales from League of Legends. Choose a Legend and Chosen Champion card for your deck and battle it out between 2 to 4 players in various game modes! The most important card in your deck is your champion legend. This is the card you build your deck around—it determines your options for the chosen champion who starts faceup on the board and who you’ll send to fight for you, and it defines the domains (colors) of your deck’s cards.

Your legend and your chosen champion define your strategy. Maybe your plan is quick strikes, maybe it’s to build up an unstoppable huge army, or maybe it’s to use one incredibly powerful and mobile fighter. You’ll have additional units (and other champion units) to send to fight, spells to help them win, and even gear to empower your team.
