Schedule

A more detailed schedule and curriculum will be posted once we’ve finalized our preparations.

Campers will begin with pre-constructed commander decks, refining them as they play, all while learning about meta-game context, deck construction guidelines, and card prioritization.


Draft Camp Basics

Campers will develop their skills as Magic players through total immersion in limited game-play, the art of building a deck from a limited pool of cards presented at random. Players will hone their skills and develop into better, more-prepared Magic players. This camp helps foster deductive reasoning and decision-analysis skills.

Calendar: One-week session, Monday through Friday, 12:30 PM to 5:30 PM
Cost: $275 per session, or $250 for early birds (registration by the end of March)
Counselor Ratio: One counselor to every eight campers
Location: 3850 Lancaster Avenue, Philadelphia, PA 19104
Recommended Ages: 11 to 17 years old
Experience Range: novice to advanced, so long as the camper has a basic knowledge of the game’s rules
Amenities: The cost of each camper’s session includes daily snacks, boosters containing 270 or more cards, a play-mat, and a pack of approximately 100 sleeves.

August 7th to 11th

Schedule

A more detailed schedule and curriculum will be posted once we’ve finalized our preparations.

Monday: Campers will each open a sealed pool of six Magic boosters, and work with counselors to build a deck to play casually against other campers throughout the day, all the while learning important card-selection and limited-play strategies.
Tuesday through Thursday: Each day the campers will draft, using three Magic boosters to play in a small casual tournament, building upon their card-selection and signalling strategies and improving their play.
Friday: The campers will draft one final time, again using three Magic boosters, but this time with the ability to win more boosters based on their tournament record.
