It was announced that there will be a Team Trios Pro Tour in 2018, as well as an increase in team Grand Prix and team PTQs. It seems like it would be a great option to have on xmage.
Team Constructed:
Each team member will play the opposing team member with the same player designation (A, B, or C).
Allow for mixed format (ie, standard/modern/legacy)
Allow for unified construction rules (no overlapping non-basic cards between decks on a team).
A team wins the overall match by winning 2 individual matches.
Team Draft:
Team members draft at the same draft table with one opposing team (6 total players per draft table). Team members will be seated at the draft table in exactly the following order:
Team 1, Player A
Team 2, Player C
Team 1, Player B
Team 2, Player A
Team 1, Player C
Team 2, Player B
No communication between teammates during the draft (not really enforcable, but could mute chat until draft is over)
For Grand Prix, each team member will play the opposing team member with the same player designation (A, B, or C).
For casual team draft, round robin play for each player against each opposing team member.
A team wins the overall match by winning a majority of the games played (ie, 5 of 9 possible matches for round robin play).
Team Sealed:
12 boosters for a team of 3
Each team member will play the opposing team member with the same player designation (A, B, or C).
*All cards must be assigned to a player's deck or sideboard and can not be transferred between players during the tournament.
