Why does Christian Calcano, who made the trip to Toronto for Spotlight: Eclipsed, enjoy Limited?

"It teaches you all the fundamentals of Magic . . . and I love opening packs."
February 7, 2026 at 10:30 PM
Dominaria and Strixhaven and Tarkir, oh my!

One of the most popular side events alongside Spotlight: Eclipsed in Toronto is the Chaos Draft, where players first drafted the packs they would open, then drafted cards from their drafted packs!

How do you prepare for a Limited event like Spotlight: Eclipsed?

For Canadian Regional Champion Owen Turcotte, building practice Sealed pools, plus getting in tons of drafts as he prepared for the Pro Tour, gave him practice ahead of the Spotlight Series.

And take a look at that pool!
