Hye, guys! Hope everyone is staying cool and ready to enjoy a great holiday weekend.
Yes, I've doen the same first round or others for some pop-up drafts. I'm actually working on some for the HR Derby and All-Star game right now. We don't put things like this in the regular schedule because it can get stale very quickly, but we like it for pop-ups so there's not a clear meta in how to build a roster.
One of the things we try to do is to create roster diversity, so that we don't have the same cards on every team. That was something that existed in PT overall when I first started working here, and we wanted to get away from that. Perfect Draft does that on its own, but we can cut the deck in many different ways to make it more interesting.
If you have any ideas or questions, please DM me. I would love to hear your thoughts and feedback.
