What is the correct order of setup steps when playing a live match (choosing starting player, revealing Legend/Champion, revealing battlefield, drawing cards)?

Ruling: The setup order is: reveal Legend/Champion, place battlefield, determine starting player, reveal battlefield, then draw cards. All reveals happen simultaneously (cards are placed face-down then revealed together) to prevent counter-picking.

Sequence:

  • Reveal Legend/Champion (simultaneously)
  • Place battlefield
  • Determine starting player
  • Reveal battlefield
  • Draw cards

Nuances:

  • Reveals are done by placing cards face-down first, then revealing simultaneously to prevent players from counter-picking based on opponent's choices
