If you like to play limited formats, we just got details for official Lorcana sealed and draft formats!
Thanks to Nive’s Nerd Corner, we now have information about official sealed and draft formats that can be held in stores starting with the launch of The First Chapter on August 18th!
This shows an email from Ravensburger which states that LGS can host Disney Lorcana TCG events using any of the 3 formats.
- Core Constructed
Players can use any of the cards from The First Chapter to build a deck with a 60-card minimum, a maximum of two inks, and maximum of four cards with the same full name. - Booster Draft
Players will need to be provided with a minimum of four booster packs each to pass cards among them, from which they will build a 40-card deck using any number of different inks (rather than only two inks).
More than four copies of a card with the same full name can be played. - Sealed Deck
Players will need to be provided with a minimum of six booster packs each to use as their individual card pool, from which they will build a 40-card deck using any number of different inks (rather than only two inks).
More than four copies of a card with the same full name can be played.
Aside from these 3 tournament formats, stores may also run League play, where a full set of League recommendations will be included in the OP Kit that arrives with their first shipment of Disney Lorcana TCG product.
Further information is also provided in the email regarding tournament software and special events such as pre-release events. The email states the following for these matters.
- Tournament Software
We are working with the Melee tournament platform to put the finishing touches on the Disney Lorcana TCG Organized Play tool.
Approved OP locations will soon be able to schedule their events in Melee. Look for more details on how the platform works and how to schedule your events in the coming weeks. - Special Events
Retailers have asked if there are officially supported Prerelease and Release events. While there are no officially supported Prerelease or Release events for The First Chapter, we are considering themfor future sets.
You are welcome to run your own Release event using materials from The First Chapter OP Kit.
Note that because NO Disney Lorcana TCG product designated for the LGS release may be sold, gifted, distributed, or traded before the August 18th release date, no tournaments may be held prior to August 18th.
