Worlds 2015 - Predictions and Useless Banter to Bide Your Time

I am looking forward to drafting as well… new set too…I think

dashakan · October 30, 2015, 8:03pm

Not the official ones. I feel they are quite poorly done compared to cube drafting. Once you have cubed, you will likely not want to pay money for an official draft again. There should be a number of people at Worlds with cubes, though.

No one will have a cube with the new draft set that looks like will be at Worlds.

MOAR mumbad spoilers

dashakan · October 30, 2015, 8:07pm

Right. They will have a much more cohesive, well thought out collection of cards through D&D to draft with.

stormzbowler · October 30, 2015, 8:19pm

And not the Mumbad cycle spoilers which would be the only reason I would ever be interested in drafting.

Their continual ‘draw’ is the ability to play with unreleased cards. Not worth the cost. The only upside is bolstering one’s own collection. I know @d1en last year was primarily drafting that way.

I am totally up for draftin. Never tried cube but seems really cool, so if I can get in on that action I sure would like to. So I guess I have like maybe Wednesday night and Sunday to draft…

d1en · October 31, 2015, 1:50am

Yup. That’s what I did last year. I drafted every possible Clone Chip, Faerie, or SanSan cycle card I thought would be useful for future deck building. I coincidentally drafted this kickass Faerie LLDS recursion with Chameleon deck.

Stimhack cube is 100% the best way to play Netrunner

EmptyWorld · October 31, 2015, 3:00am

That’s the only reason I’m interested in draft.

mediohxcore · October 31, 2015, 3:27am

True fact: everyone gets the spoilers regardless of whether you actually draft their stupid format or not.

ericbtool · October 31, 2015, 5:12am

that was a really cool deck

Zebadiah · October 31, 2015, 1:06pm

I would love to cube draft too, but am also excited to see some Mumbad cards.

doomrat · October 31, 2015, 3:43pm

I’m definitely looking forward to some drafting. I haven’t tried the stimhack cube, but I’d like to.

prozz · November 1, 2015, 1:18pm

any info on how many people will attend the worlds? how many tickets were sold? thanks for answers

Calimsha · November 1, 2015, 1:19pm

Between 250 and 300.

Orbital_Tangent · November 1, 2015, 4:24pm

Yes. Draft is awesome. Can’t wait to see the new cards.

Giesch · November 1, 2015, 6:40pm

I think I’m going to play their format and then add the new cards to the cube.

evilgaz · November 2, 2015, 9:13am

Be nice to see an expanded event next time. I reckon UK Nationals could have done over 200 easy. Worlds should and could be bigger by some margin right?

Looking forward to a big ass event, even if it means getting to the cut you’ve got to be good and lucky consistently throughout the day.
