Just out of curiosity, how we can get a draw in a match?

[psychobabble.]

What's the tie-breaker in the swiss tourneys? Strength of schedule? I really hope it's not life totals, a tie-breaker which affects the pool of viable decks is not a good idea imo.

Throne is the easiest way to get a draw (although I think in QM atm it's bugged and the person with the lowest, negative, life total loses - but even so, it's conceivable that both players could end up on exactly 0). Celebration when both players have an empty deck and 1 life would be another. Also, dark assassin attack when you're on one life and the other player is on 4 or less should be a draw I think (although not sure how triggers go on the stack in this game). I'm sure there's other corner cases out there where you get a true draw.

Most of the examples of getting a draw which you've mentioned are false. Only the Celebrations example seems plausible, although I haven't been able to test this.

nice , more options to play , but might I ask , will any of these options give out seals at any decent rate by any chance :P ?
I think I am not the only one disliking emilio's packs for gold , and we would love a decent source of seal income aside getting from lvl 170 to 184 for another void box :P
