Snakedraft is a cool format where you take turns drafting a card from the entire card pool. Players go in order from 1-8 and then 8-1 repeatedly choosing cards. If you choose a card, nobody else is allowed to play it, and any card not chosen at the end is free for all for all. Jackson Howard, Sure Gamble and Hedge Fund are not allowed to be drafted, so they are always free to everyone. It can be quite fun mixing up between giving yourself a card you really need and denying someone else a card they really need. No MWL applies.
We played this in the stimhack slack, in the channel #snakedraft (thus the title). We are doing a 2nd round now if anyone is keen to spectate.
You can see the final result of our draft here:
At the end of the draft, we all build decks and then go for 3 swiss rounds to determine a winner. Both of my decks went 3-0.
Unlike my runner deck, a good chunk of the cards played here weren't drafted by me or anyone. One card I'm particularly proud of choosing is Thoth, which allows me to make the QPM behind a remote play very successfully even without data raven. This deck is definitely worse than my runner but I was still able to squeeze out 3 wins during the entire format.
