Anyone know when this is expected? How much money does FFG lose not releasing the draft pack with the set. It should be dropped on the same day so we have a reason to buy more packs. I’m sick of drafting sets I already have all the cards for.

FFG said one month after the main release.

ANy updates?

and also, which draft set do you guys like more?

rivals seem better to me

I liked Rivals as a draft set, but I’m really excited for Allies. I love synergy cards and expect that a lot of the cards in this new draft pack will make a huge impact on constructed decks.

My local store says it'll arrive this Thursday, April 25.

Given all the cards in Convergence that look for specific character subtypes, the old draft pack really doesn't work any more. I liked it, and I've enjoyed drafting with it since I started playing the game last year. But the past few weeks of everyone drafting Convergence with no characters that match the subtypes needed by cards has been somewhat painful. Besides, after playing with the same draft pack every week for 6+ months, I'm ready for something new and fresh.
