“Always keep your foes confused. If they are never certain who you are or what you want, they cannot know what you are like to do next.”

~ George R.R. Martin, A Storm of Swords ~

Discover an alternative path to the Iron Throne with Draft Starters & Packs for A Game of Thrones: The Card Game! Draft play introduces a unique set of challenges, forcing you to build a deck from cards that you select one at a time from a limited number, without full knowledge of the available card pool. Accordingly, you’ll develop strategies for how to select your cards and build your deck. Furthermore, you’ll stretch and adapt to the format’s challenges as you and your friends test your mettle against each other with draft-built decks.

Westeros is a new pool of cards for A Game of Thrones: The Card Game Draft Play, and it challenges players to forge a new vision for the Seven Kingdoms, even as they seek to win the Iron Throne. The Westeros draft experience centers around the Westeros draft pool, a collection of 240 randomized cards, which include a healthy representation of cards drawn from the Living Card Game's two most recently completed cycles, Kingsroad and Conquest and Defiance, as well as no fewer than thirty-four preview cards from the upcoming Wardens Cycle. Moreover, the Westeros card pool features ten different “draft format only” cards that ensure your draft experiences will be both truly dynamic and unique.

Each Westeros Draft Starter features 19 fixed cards that serve as the foundations for your Westeros draft decks. An essential mix of House cards, locations, and plot cards accompany rules for draft play and a “draft only” agenda. At the heart of the Westeros play experience are its randomized Westeros Draft Packs. Compiled according to a custom algorithm, and drawn from a pool of 240 pre-selected A Game of Thrones: The Card Game cards, each Draft Pack introduces a unique combination of 50 draft cards.
