If you're not adding an Unhinged booster to the pool, you're not really using him right.

4/5 from me, for the sheer craziness this guy causes before the game even starts.

Well, this would add a fun twist to a cube draft.

Unhinged and Modern Masters seem like the best choices here.

Get an unhinged booster, pull a Booster Tutor.

Booster tutor for a conspiracy pack, then take out the lore seeker and declare you're adding a pack of unhinged to the draft. Force everybody to draft a pack while playing.

I won't go as far as Unhinged, but if I can find some Time Spiral, it would definitely add some complexity to the draft.

Unfortunately, that won't work. A card picked with Booster Tutor is put into your hand, not drafted, so Lore Seeker's ability will not work.

How is this guy "dead outside of draft"? It's the first ever vanilla 2/2 for (2)... yeah, maybe not Legacy playable, but still notable...

Question: who pays for the booster pack?

while this card is incredibly fun for drafts, my issue with these draft-only cards is that their existence means that I can't just open packs to look for a Marchesa because their are 5 rares that are completely dead outside of draft. (at least deal broker is somewhat playable).

Oh well, at least red finally has a bear.

EDIT: So these guys replace basic lands, Marchesa here I come!

This one is definitely going to need some rulings from the DCI. What if I want to add a pack of Homelands? What if I want to add a prerelease seed pack? What if I want to add a pack of Unglued/Unhinged? What if I want to add a pack that I brought with me to the draft?

Wow, they actually turned Booster Tutor in a nonsilver-bordered card.

I knew Un-Sets serve as inspiration for actual cards, and Conspiracy is meant for casual, but still.
I certainly didn't expect that to happen.

Also, I've heard Homelands boosters are a good choice.

They replace the basic land. You won't get dead rares.

Also, you supply the booster pack. As for what boosters are allowed, it depends on your play group, but I'd say any booster goes (as long as it's magic cards).

A colorless bear that allows drafting craziness. I love it. I had an Agent of Aquisitions showing on the table when I drafted this dude. I got a booster Journey into Nyx hoping to open the God Pack, and draft 15 gods.... man that would have been crazy! This guy is fun. I really enjoy the strangeness he introduces.
