From a pile of face-down cards, 9 cards are taken face up in a 3x3 grid. The player who picks first will pick a full row or column of three cards (diagonals are not allowed). The second player then picks another row or column. This can lead to the second player ending up picking only two cards. All cards that were not picked, are put aside and are not used in the match. This procedure is followed until the stack of cards is empty. Then they build a 40-card deck adding basic lands (if necessary).

Hi, not sure if this reaches anyone, but I have another draft / limited format that is not listed here. It's called Grid Draft and I use it mostly with a Cube. It can be used with booster packs or some other set of cards as well. It's probably best for two players. It could work with three, but not more (never tried it). Here's how it works: From a pile of face-down cards, 9 cards are taken face up in a 3x3 grid. The player who picks first will pick a full row or column of three cards (diagonals are not allowed). The second player then picks another row or column. This can lead to the second player ending up picking only two cards. All cards that were not picked, are put aside and are not used in the match. This procedure is followed until the stack of cards is empty. Then they build a 40-card deck adding basic lands (if necessary). Therefore 6 Booster packs wouldn't be enough for 2 players, since 3-4 cards out of every grid aren't even used in the match.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 176.198.219.95 (talkcontribs).
