10creature.dek Note though, that I had 2 looting spells.

Rejected. Prepare the gallows!

Oh wait, I found the proper response. "Big words from someone who's never 3-0'd with Skaab Ruinator."

Yeah, I mean, I get it. It looks bad, but it played out like kind of an OP Hellspark Elemental. Except it doesn't kill itself the first turn. In the games I had, I was generally opening T1 Gravecrawler into T2 Dregscape Zombie. Opponent was playing a red deck with board wipes, but already I...

Oh, I played with my paper cube today with my girlfriend. Played a mono black deck with this guy: Dregscape Zombie Forgot how great it is in a zombie/sac deck. Putting it here to remind myself.

Good in multiples. Probably better in constructed than cube.

Seriously though, I just went 3 - 0 in the 8-player draft, and every time I drew Ruinator it was an all-star. I had 10 creatures in my deck, a couple looting effects, and it was regularly cast twice out of the yard. One game I didn't even care if they board-wiped, because it would just give me...

Back in the day I used tappedOut. But I guess that's still kind of list-based.

This is what Eric linked. I basically use this after first putting 1 card of each color in each pack.

The method, precisely is: 1) Put 1 card from each color in each pack. 2) Set aside 20 remaining cards from each color, and put the rest into a pile of all the remaining cards (gold, lands, colorless). This "remainder" pile is 140 cards. 3) Add 28 cards of the remainder pile to each color...

So.... that's basically perfect, right?

I implemented an algorithm. First it puts one of each color in a pack (just the 5 primary colors), then it does the remaining 10 using a slightly modified version of the method Eric linked. Here are the 24 packs. I haven't looked at it yet, so maybe the method is garbage.

This method has a 3-card per color group cap. Still trying to decide if these hard caps are desirable, and if so, what it should be.

Either way, I played around it like a champ. :)

To be clear, in my context it would all be done electronically, so there's no real "work" involved.

Oh no? Where did I get that from? Watching Kirb?

I've been thinking about how to arrange packs, since I can now do it electronically. During our 8p draft, I opened a pack with like 8 red cards and 7 lands. This is non-ideal for a number of reasons. The worst is when you see say, 6 black zombie cards in one pack, and you know that the random...

What does it do again?
