Sealed deck tournaments are seen in many collectible trading card games. Typically, an entry fee will be charged which will pay for a sixty card deck, several booster packs, and a little extra for the gaming store which both hosts the tournament and sells the cards.

Usually players will assemble a deck of sixty cards, or occasionally a forty card deck. The object is to make a deck of cards which work well together, not necessarily use all the best cards.

Sometimes players will be permitted to use a sideboard.
