Chaos Draft Event: Outlaws of Thunder Junction & The Lost Caverns of Ixalan

A Chaos Draft is a unique Limited format where players draft from a mix of different Magic: The Gathering sets instead of a single one. In this event, players will draft using Outlaws of Thunder Junction and The Lost Caverns of Ixalan, creating a wild and unpredictable mix of mechanics, themes, and synergies.


Event Structure

  • Format: Chaos Booster Draft (Limited)
  • Packs: Each player receives 3 booster packs, with a mix of:
    • 1 Outlaws of Thunder Junction Play Booster
    • 1 The Lost Caverns of Ixalan Play Booster
    • 1 Randomized Play Booster from one of the two sets
  • Drafting: Players select one card at a time from a booster before passing the remaining cards to the next player, continuing until all cards are chosen.
  • Deck Building: Players construct a 40-card deck using their drafted cards and basic lands (provided by the event).
  • Rounds: Typically 3-4 Swiss rounds, best-of-three matches.
  • Prizes: Based on standings, usually including booster packs, promo cards, or store credit.

Set Synergies & Chaos Draft Challenges

Since these sets come from different worlds, their mechanics will interact in exciting and sometimes unexpected ways. Here’s how they mix:

Outlaws of Thunder Junction (Western-Themed, Crime & Bounties)

  • Crime Mechanic: Triggers bonuses when you exile or steal opponent's cards.
  • Bounty Counters: Encourages aggressive play by rewarding players for taking down key creatures.
  • Spree: Provides extra spellcasting flexibility by allowing additional effects.
  • Top Archetypes: Aggressive Cowboys, Sneaky Rogues, and Outlaw-style trickery.

The Lost Caverns of Ixalan (Dinosaur, Exploration & Treasure Theme)

  • Descend & Graveyard Synergies: Benefits from permanent cards hitting the graveyard.
  • Crafting Artifacts: Allows transforming cards into powerful equipment or creatures.
  • Dinosaurs & Land-Based Mechanics: Big creatures, ramp strategies, and land-based interactions.
  • Top Archetypes: Dinosaur Ramp, Treasure-Based Decks, and Temple Guardians.

Drafting Chaos: What to Expect

  • Unpredictable Decks: You might end up with a mix of cowboys riding dinosaurs, outlaws looting hidden caverns, or treasure-fueled crime sprees.
  • Synergy Hunting: Some mechanics will naturally overlap (treasure generation, exiling cards, and ramp strategies), while others will require creative deck-building.
  • Fast-Paced or Slow & Powerful? Outlaws of Thunder Junction tends to favor aggressive, sneaky strategies, while Ixalan offers midrange and big-mana creatures.

Final Thoughts

A Chaos Draft like this brings thrilling unpredictability to the table. Whether you're dueling with outlaw rogues, summoning massive dinosaurs, or looting treasures for spell-fueled combos, this event promises a wild and thematic draft experience!
