While constructing a deck from your personal, pre-leveled collection is the standard way to play, it often leads to a stale, repetitive meta.
This comprehensive guide will teach you the golden rules of the drafting phase, ensuring you enter the arena with a massive tactical advantage.
Drafting Priorities
If you reach the end of the draft and your deck has no reliable way to damage the enemy tower, you have already lost the match.
Always ask yourself: “If I give this card to my opponent, do I have a counter for it in the cards I have already drafted?”
- Deny them synergy.
- Don’t draft too heavy.
- Ruin their cycle.
Sabotaging the Opponent
Drafting is not just about building a good deck for yourself; it is equally about constructing a terrible deck for your opponent.
Their average elixir cost will skyrocket, their hand will be completely clogged, and they will be unable to defend your cheap, fast attacks.
