Test Your Deck Building in Battlebrew!
Written by TVP
Hey custom Magic designers and enjoyers, come join us in another Battlebrew this month, a cross-server flash event where the goal is to help designers get constructed playtesting, feedback, and overall a chance to see their cards shine together! The end result is a super fun, once-in-a-lifetime environment where everyone is a beginner and hilarious synergies are for you to discover. This event is meant not only for designers, but for any players as well. The more the merrier; we want you to join!
Submissions start Thursday, May 4th, with the deadline for submissions being the 23rd. From there, we'll get the files ready into its own portable Cockatrice (the program used to play Magic over the computer, including custom Magic cards!). As soon as the Cockatrice is ready, it's as simple as downloading the file and starting the program! All the files will already be loaded in, so you can get right to deck building and playing.
If you'd like to submit designs, just follow these steps:
First, get your Magic Set Editor (MSE) file ready! If you don't have MSE, you can download it from here: https://github.com/MagicSetEditorPacks/Basic-M15-Magic-Pack
Make sure to look over your files for any errors in spelling, grammar, or formatting. Don't be afraid to stop by in the Custom Magic Discord server's #battlebrew channel for help! And if you're having tech troubles, visit the #tech-support channel.
Next, you'll want to export your set to Cockatrice with the Cockatrice Exporter and zip up the exported files.
Finally, just fill out the google form to submit your cards! This form will be made available in the Custom Magic Discord server on the 4th; feel free to join early, though! If there's any issues with the files, we'll fire a DM over to you.
And that's it! Once submissions are over and the event is running, have fun surveying the card pool and looking for a powerful set of synergies the designers might not have even noticed! Hope to see you there!
