Congrats 3eowulf on winning this week's Throne Challenge on Hooru Kira!

Balance changes led to some shuffling of decks this week as we saw a resurgance of aggro decks, very few Cylix Treasure Troves, and even fewer Speaking Circles.

Join us Tuesday at 7p EST for the last Throne challenge of the season: https://battlefy.com/tuesday-night-eternal/challenge-10-throne-winter-season/5fe4a0ddd57c7e385e157b17/info?infoTab=details

Only 3 remaining opportunities to qualify for 16 person Winter Invitational on coming up on March 6!

Can Applechips hold #1 through the end?

Only 3 more weeks to snag a coveted wildcard spot!

A suggestion for improving the drafting experience (open letter)

Posted: 04 Feb 2021 08:23 PM PST

I wrote the following to Eternal support but also wanted to post here to get community feedback, discussion, or alternate ideas:

---

I really enjoy drafting on this game, but I (and many others drafters in the community) feel it can be expensive to do as the primary format.

Recently I tried out Mythgard, and while their drafting system is an apples and oranges comparison to Eternal's, there is one component that I believe would help make the Eternal drafting experience better for everyone: Let us play all 9 draft games.

Letting drafters play 9 draft games allows us to get the most out of our time and money. Players get to play more games with the decks they draft, and they don't get punished for losing the first three games with a decent deck due to things like bad mojo or being new to the game.

Allowing people to play 9 draft games should also help bolster the draft queue, which, at times, can suffer long waits.

I've considered whether a change like this would require reworking the cost/reward system. Eternal's chest system and the economics of a "keeper" draft limits the flexibility in both the cost of entering a draft and the rewards given. Personally, I would be OK if there were no additional rewards for the 8th or 9th win, but perhaps there's a creative way to recognize drafting excellence. I tried working out a solution that would lower the cost of entering draft and lowering the starting chest rewards (e.g. 4000g and 3 bronze), but after running the numbers it seems 5000g is your sweet spot for drafting 4 packs and getting free chests.

Ultimately, you guys would be best to figure out the economics of this type of change, but just the chance to turn a 0-3 record into a 6-3 seems rewarding enough as a player.

Thanks for taking the time to read and consider this proposal. Eternal already has a really good drafting community, and I hope a change like this could help the community grow and have average players feel better about drafting—even on their bad days.
