So to clarify, you're using custom boosters that pull from a custom pool?
This looks very interesting. You haven't said what distribution of boosters you would give (is it all random, or are certain pairings guaranteed-such as are dwarves always paired with Nazgul etc?, and how do you deal with Gollum?)
My first impression is that there's a lot of variation in the power of the rares. Staff Asunder and Dangerous Gamble are not on the same power level as Desert Lord or Eomer, TMotR, and I'm sure many people pulling the former are likely to not bother playing any further. There's also a large disparity in companion control for the shadow sides, and if you only get one gandalf booster, it may well be totally useless if you don't pull the wizard.
I'd certainly be keen on trying it out, but I'd be even more keen to hear more about it.
Neat idea! Is each booster 11 cards, same as the Decipher ones?
Are you intending rarity to correlate to a card's accessibility (how powerful it is) or a card's worthiness (how usable it is)?
Moria can swarm very efficiently with 0 Goblin Armory, for example, and that card is so warping that having 4 of it matters a lot more than, well, really much of anything else.
| C | U | R | |
| 0 | 50% | 71% | 87% |
| 1 | 35% | 25% | 12% |
| 2 or more | 15% | 5% | 1% |
| C | U | R | |
| 0 | 30% | 54% | 78% |
| 1 | 37% | 34% | 20% |
| 2 or more | 34% | 12% | 2% |
Shadow sides are naturally much more flexible in accepting different splashes so that probably doesn't need much attention. However, not many cards in FP packs -- especially commons where it matters most -- are really that splashable, so I think most cards in the 9 boosters are basically unusable.
Unfortunately, I'm not sure what the best solution would be. The randomness is the fun of it. I notice you didn't give multi-culture hate to Shadow packs (a good thing), maybe instead of a culture-specific booster pack you could design some sort of "here's the bones of your deck" base pack?
Hard to figure out how to remain random enough without either sabotaging players (here's some random stuff, figure something out) or pigeonholing them (here's Elven cards, go play Elves). Selecting a FP pack at the end does solve most of the issue, though inelegantly.
I think what I would try is splitting up rarity by splashability and power. So commons are the "any deck can use this if they want" sort of cards: namely companions but also some gear or generally-helpful conditions. Usable, but perhaps not very good.
The last thing I'll note is that no matter what, everyone needs RB support. If you don't get Hobbit Sword you are in trouble from the start. That's the sort of thing that could go in a "base pack" I mentioned earlier. Of course, most Shire cards you pull are going to go towards this so you'd have to be very unlucky to wind up totally unarmed.
Beyond the individual card consideration, there's the overall culture consideration. In my playtesting, I found Moria to be one of the weaker shadow cultures; swarming requires more synergy than beatdown, and so is less consistent in limited. Having a powerful card like Goblin Armory at uncommon was an attempt to balance Moria with the other shadow cultures. (While I stand by this general comment, the specifics may be wrong. It's very possible that I was just making poor deckbuilding decisions with my Moria decks, and the culture is actually more powerful than I think.)
The FP cards being less splashable than the Shadow cards is a deliberate choice on my part, although it's certainly possible it's an incorrect choice. While splashing minions is easy, because they don't stick around, shadow support cards in a multi-culture deck have a high chance of getting stuck in your hand (what if you draw your Moria minions and Dunland support, for example).
On the FP side, companions do stick around from turn to turn, and so cultural enforcement is easier to meet. A two-culture deck that can start one companion of each culture won't have any problem with spotting the necessary characters, provided they can keep them out of the dead pile. I tried to include multiple two-twilight companions in each culture at common to make this possible (this was hardest in [Gandalf], and Leader of Men has switched between common and uncommon multiple times).
Looking at the lists with that in mind, you're right. It's worth discussing whether you want that though. A swarm deck has to comprise of a lot of cheap minions and I'm not sure there's any way to get that together here. I count around 35 cards that'll give you a minion costing 2 or less (including cards which pull other cards and minions that can play for less in some circumstances like Goblin Scavengers with Goblin Armory), out of a pool of, what, 234 cards? Only 10 of those could cost 1 or less. Swarm doesn't usually need very much synergy at all, stupid swarm (playing 1-cost minions regardless of culture) has won tournaments. In this pool of cards, though, you probably do need a lot of it. With that in mind, Goblin Armory doesn't seem very impactful after all. Strange to say, but true.
All of that assumes that 7 minions on the table is competitive in a format where people are probably not too attached to any particular companion and have little to lose if Enquea kills one. There's a reason cards like Far Harad Mercenaries were printed as commons. If I didn't do anything wrong, swarm decks aren't really going to happen. Now, maybe that's good. I really disliked playing against swarm for my first few years in the game, and it means you don't need to worry nearly as much about RB support.
Now, I agree with your hesitancy to just up the number of packs. It's not really sealed when you've got all the cards you want anyway. At the same time, without enough cards to build towards some direction it's still not really sealed. I think there's not enough room for strategy in the current layout. But again, I might be looking at this all wrong. You've done some simulations, maybe you can share a sample deck? Or perhaps PM me the code you used so I can run a few for myself?
Another option for a "base pack" is to format it the same way as the others. A group of 36 cards where you get 11 of them based on rarity. That's what I was thinking, at least, although again it might require the other packs to be restructured and I don't think that's a good thing at this point. But you can ensure that these are characters with little to no cultural enforcement and that the rares are solid starting companions or somesuch. I have not looked at companions the same way I looked at e.g. swarm above though, it's quite possible that things are fine now. That's why I was saying prioritize splashability for Free Peoples commons though, if a player only has 50 reasonably-usable cards then deckbuilding is more about detail than direction.
Ultimately, one of the reasons Draft works so well in Magic is that you can make your deck work after you get your cards. You don't really draft the core, you draft that cards you want to go around that core and then choose the core yourself. The core for Magic, of course, is lands. The draft pack and Hobbit Draft Game base deck basically serve this purpose, just provide it up front. You know what you're building from in those cases, and in Magic where you know what you're building toward. Either way, there's an anchor for it all. I think FPs in particular really need an anchor.
This is a tangent, but there's also an as-of-yet-unused part of Gemp's draft where you pull multiple cards at once. Players could have a choice between, for example, Legolas with two weapons vs Aragorn with his two weapons vs Gandalf with his sword and staff. It would be awfully complicated to wedge such a thing into this concept, I just felt it was worth mentioning for some reason. I guess we've talked about every other way to spice up sealed already so it seemed to fit :P
