I've gotten a few questions about how Death Knight's runes will work in Arena. The draft knows which cards you have picked. It will only offer cards you could legally play given the runes you have drafted. 1/2

So if you pick a Double Unholy card, no double or triple Frost or Blood cards will be shown. If you then draft a Single Blood card, no Triple Unholy or Single Frost cards will be shown. Can you draft carefully to force certain cards? Why yes, yes you can. 2/2

@themattlondon does this mean you could also potentially get stuck in a direction you didn't wanna go in? like you're drafting F and you get stuck with a set of cards that are UU or BB for example

@paulsworkintwit Probability of this is very low, given the frequency of class cards. More likely is you'd have to pick a mediocre neutral over a good card in runes you don't want. But that's the kind of tough decision we want in Arena.
