MTG Draft Forge

When you create a room, a 6-character invite code is generated automatically — for example, DRAFT7. Share that code with your playgroup verbally, via text, or take a screenshot.

Your friends open the app, tap Join Room, enter the code, and they'll appear in your player list instantly.

Yes — that's the primary use case. Everyone at your table runs the app on their own device and joins via the invite code. The room creator manages starting the tournament and logging results.

See the Formats section below for a full breakdown. The quick version: Single Elimination is fastest, Round Robin is fairest for small groups, and MTGA Style mirrors the Arena draft experience (first to 7 wins).

If you're unsure, pick Suggested — the app automatically chooses the best format for your player count.

Each player tracks their own match record independently. The first player to reach 7 wins is the tournament champion. Reaching 3 losses eliminates a player.

Players don't necessarily play each other directly — this format tracks individual performance across the event, matching the Arena Limited experience.

Standings are sorted by Match Points (3 per win) first. If players are tied on points, the tiebreaker is their accumulated final life total from all matches — so winning with more life remaining gives a standings advantage.

This encourages playing aggressively even in lopsided games.

No account is ever required. The app works fully offline — all room data is stored on your device.

Multi-device room syncing (players on different phones seeing the same live bracket) requires all players to be on the same local network or have internet access.

Inside your active room, tap Seating from the tournament hub, then tap Randomize Seats. The app generates a circular seating diagram showing numbered positions around the table, with pack-passing direction indicated.

Tap the button again to re-randomize at any time before the draft starts.

Yes — the Life Counter tab is fully standalone. Open it directly from the bottom navigation. You can track life for 1–6 players, choose your starting life total (20, 30, 40, or 50), and add or remove players at any time.

The roller includes: d4, d6, d8, d10, d12, d20, and d100. You can roll up to 10 dice at once and see individual results alongside the total.

Rolling a Natural 20 or a Critical 1 on a d20 triggers a special alert — feel the moment.
