Using the pattern
Drafting can occur as a separate phase in the beginning of game instances as part of providing players with their Hands or Drawing Stacks. Examples of games with this structure include some versions of Magic: The Gathering games. The alternative is to do Drafting during gameplay and this can either be done to incrementally let players build their decks (i.e. Drawing Stacks) or let players choice from a set of actions or roles but then let those not chosen be the choices for the next player in a game with Turn Taking. Dominion and Thunderstone are examples of the former while 7 Wonders and Citadels are examples of the latter.
