CIV DRAFT (Round 1-3)
Team Captains will pick 15 civs at the start of the round with no bans and no snipes. The drafting of civs is very important as no civ can be repeated and players can only choose from the 15 civs that their captain picks.
This includes a high degree of teamwork and strategy development before the round begins. For example, the teams have to decide which players use which civs in which positions depending on their enemy teams and enemy civs. The best prepared teams going into the round will have a strategic advantage! Round 1 & 2 draft: https://aoe2cm.net/preset/MNYRm - Higher seeded captain is host.
Civ draft URL for the final match will be posted later.
