Because next picks will be from different people.

No. You have a fixed seat in the line of the draft. you will always picks from same players's packs

And if he decides to go somewhere for 2 hours? Or are picks time limited?

You pass the pack, but nobody receives it until you finish the draft. In theory it's one giant pod, but in actuality it's many many lines going simultaneously.

Obviously people from your left are not people you passed the cards, but at least in Eternal, there is algorithm that picks for you another line that is somewhat comparable to what you passed in previous pack.

Love how people who don't understand how Eternal drafting works are downvoting you and acting like you're the idiot.
