I kinda like the 2-picks-per-pack as it can be easier to get into an archetype or cut something off, I have to think this is more related to 8-man pods failing to fire at LGSes though. I don’t have any data but anecdotally it seems like tabletop drafting is down and maybe this is WotC’s attempt to try to fix that? It’s a shame because I’ve always felt the 8 person, 1 booster box, 3 round setup was perfect.
Funny that the new 30 pack play boxes still don’t work nicely with this format either 😜
