Battlebond was quite popular, from what I have observed, so how likely is it that it shall have a sequel? I myself would like to see such a set, mainly for the great reprints.

What does everyone else say about this? Will there be a second Battlebond set?

I think supplemental draft sets will continue as long as they continue to sell. From my point of view they would be a great place to stick reprints of cards that wizards thinks are to powerful for standard/modern. Battle bond will prob be in the mix for a future set if it was profitable and enough want to see it again. A lot of regular people who draft didn't enjoy it, but a lot of people who don't normally draft loved it. A lot of gripes I heard was it was like most supplemental products more geared to casual/commander players. Which is OK for me as I play limited and commander only.

Every single supplemental draft set has sold well. Both conspiracies and battlebond have been well received, and personally, they are my favorite set in any year.

I would probably explore another avenue, rather than go back to battlebond 2 immediately, but I am eagerly awaiting the new draft set anyways.

A draft set for 4 player free for all games that further delves into the politics mechanics like bartering and temporary truces or cards that do different things if the table votes you the archenemy or someone else.

draft set archenemy sounds really weird and awesome!

Since WotC has suspended Masters sets for the foreseeable future, any set that provides reprints without needing to worry about harming standard and modern is a good set, in my mind.

I have to admit, I drafted Battlebond twice and I'm not a big fan of it. I prefer Conspiracy a lot more.

11hrr, I can understand that, but I have no real preference between the two sets, as long as WotC prints great sets that have many excellent cards, especially some great reprints.
