A stealth insert (Easter Egg) across all of Upper Deck’s brands this year were the Diamond Relic cards featuring 30 different subjects limited to just 30 copies. Also included in those products were one-of-one instant winner cards to be included in a 30th Anniversary Live Draft program. We created one-of-one variations of these cards that fans will have the opportunity to select through a live draft.
The Draft selection event took place on Monday, November 4. This will be filmed and shared on Upper Deck’s YouTube and Facebook platforms. From there, participants will have some time to strategize how they will make their Draft decisions. Here is a list of the order for selections:

Here is a look at the selection show for this event. Submissions 13 and 14 came in after the live draft.
If you a Winner and are unavailable to participate in the Draft event, Upper Deck will send you (1) randomly selected 1-of-1 30th Anniversary diamond relic black variation card (“Prize Card”), randomly selected by Upper Deck in its sole discretion. A Winner who redeems the 30th Anniversary redemption cards after the Draft event will receive a Prize Card from the remaining inventory selected at random by Upper Deck. If any of the thirty (30) products included in this promotion do not release prior to the Draft, the Winner will receive a Prize Card from Upper Deck’s remaining inventory, also selected at random by Upper Deck.
