You, along with everyone else at the table, open one pack each and select—"draft"—one card from that pack. Then you pass the rest of the cards to the player on your left. The packs get passed around the table until all the cards are gone. You repeat this process for the second pack, passing to the right.
A Limited format is one where you build a deck with closed packs. The Sealed format involves building a 40-card deck using six unopened packs.
Limited decks must contain a minimum of 40 cards. There is no maximum deck size, however, the player must be able to shuffle their deck unassisted. Players are not restricted to four of any one card in Limited tournament play. There are no banned or restricted card lists.

Each player then passes the remaining cards to the left, and continues drafting from the new cards they get from the player on their right.
After being seated around a table, each player simultaneously opens one booster pack, selects a single card, and then passes the rest to the next player over. After all players have drafted fifteen cards, they each open their second pack, and drafting continues (sometimes in reverse order during the second pack).
