Metagame - Risk Vs Reward: Sealed Swarm Success

I have always dreamed of playing in a PCQ with cards I’ve never seen before. On Saturday, my dream came true.

I was unable to attend my local Green Lantern Corps Sneak Peek tournament last week. I had been too busy to study the full spoiler. The only cards I knew were those previewed on various websites. I was intrigued by the potential flood of Manhunter army cards and I knew there was something new called “willpower,” but the main body of the set was absolutely foreign to me. This caused a certain thrill when I managed to win my way into the Top 8 and get my hands on an extended art Teen Titans Go! prize card. It was an experience I will never forget.

In Sealed Pack tournaments, whether during the Swiss rounds or the Top 8 Booster Draft, there is a basic template to follow for building a 30-card deck. If the deck is built around this skeleton, it has the best possible chance to hit all its drops. Ryan Jones taught it to me, and I would like to share it with you. The deck needs 20 characters and 10 other cards.

Stu, your articles are boring and unoriginal. Leave Metagame to the people who actually know something we don't.

I saw this theory work great last weekend at our PCQ. The winner drafted an EE/Manhunters deck.

He got lots of great cards. Major Force worked great for him. Let's see Empire of Tears and the "Mxyllbrokezor" also. He would use Sleeper Agent (I think he pulled 2 or 3) to also help boost Major Force. The rest of the Manhunter Armies were there for swarm.

(I drafted the same way, somehow he got the borkens though.. oh well.)

Sounds like a plan. Draft EE/MH and hate out big drops for GL :)
