This is not something I’m really planning to do, and not something that I’ve signed up for, but it’s something that I’ve been thinking for some time about and it would be pretty cool if we could put it together one day. At least I think so.
I know that none of my friends have tried any game similar to this one before, but some of use got into it, and we enjoyed it for quite a bit. It started with me and Alena looking for a present for Maruk some time ago, and we got some cards for ourselves as well. Later on we showed it to Eldar, and he had his own set the next day. And recently I played a game with Lёnchik and he got a total kick out of it, and made us play with him every day since then, until he left for boot camp. Last time we saw him (a day before his birthday) we’ve got him several booster packs from the expansion set of the original game.
So if all 5 of us manage to get together somewhere at some point, I propose to play a small tournament with very simple rules that will go something like this:
- everyone brings 6 unopened booster packs
- all the booster packs go into some dark bag for a total of 30 booster packs
- each player pull out 4 random packs
- with the use of those pulled out packs player builds a 30 card deck (each booster pack has 15 cards)
- each match is judged by the results of 3 games
- first round everyone plays with all other players (4 matches for each player)
- second round 4 player compete for 2 spots in the final
- final round decides who wins the leftover 10 booster packs
From what I remember, the cost of 6 booster packs is going to be somewhere around $20. I think that’s something all of us can spare for a fun evening.
What do you think, guys?

I found a cool store on Gravesend Neck Rd. It’s called “The Stand”. It’s very close to us, and the prices are much better then at GameStops and the like.
However we need more then 3 players to make it interesting. So we’ve got to wait for Eldar, Lenchik, and us to be at the same place.
