No account needed
Forge-safe packs: cards without a gameplay implementation in the pinned simulator are removed before packs open.
Fan-made and independent. No storefront, no prizes—just the fun of drafting.

Format
Pack It Up puts the history of English paper boosters into a compact four-player pod, with box toppers excluded from the eligible product pool. Each seat gets three different booster products, selected independently from the Wall of Chaos, and every drafter takes two cards before passing. Different seats may hit the same product. When one seat’s selected product contains fewer than 15 cards, only that seat opens two independently collated boosters from that product for the round.
At the table
Expect unusually strong first decisions, quick wheels, and signals that can reset when the next wrapper jumps to a different product era or pack architecture.
Decks take shape
There are no scripted color-pair lanes. Build around what crosses products cleanly, then use the double-pick windows to secure pairs of cards that belong together.
Why this draft
A 1990s expansion booster, a modern Play Booster, and a 35-card Theme Booster genuinely occupy the same possibility space. Product-specific weighted sheets preserve the identity—and the oddities—of what was opened, while the two-pack rule keeps small specialty products draftable.
