WARHAMMER SKULLS - DRAFT MODE
As part of this year’s Skulls celebration, we’re incredibly excited to reveal a brand-new game mode for Combat Cards: Draft Mode.It’s amazing to finally see this feature come to life in-game. Draft offers a completely different style of play and opens up a whole new way to experience Combat Cards.This first Draft event will feature Orks vs. Space Marines to match the Armageddon theme of Skulls, and it’ll also give players the chance to play with Wazdakka right from his release.While this debut event is designed specifically for the Skulls celebration, Draft Mode is something we plan to bring into the regular event rotation in the near future. It won’t be a permanently active mode, but instead a limited-time event that appears each season.To celebrate this first-ever Draft event, and to make sure everyone can jump in and try it out, we’ll be giving away plenty of free Draft Tokens during the first four days of the week-long Skulls event:Day 1: 150 Draft TokensDay 2: 150 Draft TokensDay 3: 100 Draft TokensDay 4: 100 Draft TokensDraft TokensWith Draft Mode comes a brand-new currency: Draft Tokens.Each Draft run has an entry cost that can be paid using either Draft Tokens or Plasma. For this event, entry costs are:50 Draft Tokens1000 PlasmaFrom the free giveaways, you’ll have enough Tokens for 10 Draft runs.On top of that, Draft runs will also reward additional Draft Tokens as part of their prize structure. With a strong run, you can potentially earn enough Tokens to keep drafting indefinitely!Because this is a special event, any Draft Tokens earned or claimed during the Skulls event will expire once the event ends. In future standard Draft events, Draft Tokens will be added to your inventory permanently.Drafting a DeckEvery Draft begins by building your pool of cards, starting with your Warlords.Each pick presents a selection of cards, from which you choose one:Warlord picks: 2 optionsBodyguard picks: 3 optionsBy the end of the draft, you’ll have a total of 15 cards to...Read full article on Community Announcements (Community)Patch NotesOfficial
