This is a format I use to play MECCG that I feel is very fun. If you are familiar with MTG cube drafting this should not be a problem figuring out.

MECCG Cube Draft

What is required:

1 copy of every card from METW
1 copy of every card from METD
1 copy of every card from MEDM
1 copy of every card from MELE
1 copy of every card from MEAS
1 copy of every card from MEWH
1 copy of every card from MEBA (if you want)

I include promos in mine but not foreign and not duplicates, in this list
I only include 1 copy of the crossover hazards from METW and MELE etc, pick art you like here I guess :)

-----=====#####=====-----

In addition and taken from above you need to create an Avatar Draft Stack consisting of:

3 of copies every Wizard from METW
3 of copies every Ringwraith from MELE
3 of copies every Fallen-Wizard from MEWH
3 of copies of The Balrog MEBA

Note:
If you have 3 Lidless Eye (The minion resource card) You can go for it here too.

This will be 60 or 63 avatars

-----=====#####=====-----

Take each character/agent (not avatars) from all of the sets and make a Character Draft Stack.

This should be 173 characters

-----=====#####=====-----

Take all resources and mix into a huge stack of about 758 - 20 enablers (738) mixing minion, hero, fallen

Note: There is a list below of, what I call enablers, to help other cards work.

-----=====#####=====-----

Take all hazards and mix into a huge stack of about 394 - 2 enablers (392)

-----=====#####=====-----

Below is a list of enablers that I hand out to each player as needed:

15 Gates of Morning (METW)
5 Doors of Night (METW)
5 Doors of Night (MELE)
5 Twilight (METW)
5 Twilight (MELE)
10 Sudden Call (MELE) some people don't require this to call so use accordingly
5 Heralded Lord (MELE)
10 Black Rider (MELE)
10 Fell Rider (MELE)
5 Focus Palantir (MELE)
5 Align Palantir (METW)
10 Test of Fire (MELE)
5 Test of Form (METW)
5 Test of Lore (METW)

The following are rings that should probably be dealt as well:
2 Bright Gold Ring (MELE)
2 Perfect Gold Ring (MELE)
2 Gold Ring that Sauron Fancies (MELE)
2 The Least of Gold Rings (MELE)
2 Gleaming Gold Ring (MELE)
2 A Little Gold Ring (MELE)
4 Beautiful Gold Ring (METW)
4 Fair Gold Ring (METW)
4 Precious Gold Ring (METW)

I just shuffle them and deal them out. They can be drafted as well.

These are based on a 5 player cube draft.

-----=====#####=====-----

I shuffle the Avatars, deal them out and draft around the table

I also do the same following in this order for Resources first, then Characters, then Hazards.

I don't include all the cards in the draft tho.

-----=====#####=====-----

In a draft of 5 or less players I divide by following:

Each player gets 3 packs of 4 cards of avatars to draft
Each player gets 3 packs of 9 cards of character to draft
Each player gets 9 packs of 15 cards of resources to draft
Each player gets 6 packs of 12 cards of hazards to draft

Traditional draft left right left, or right left right

Then distribute enablers, and build your deck and play!!!

Have Fun...
