Overview

Each card set is either Legacy or Standard. Legacy card sets are all card sets older than a certain age, excepting Origins, which is always a Standard card set.

In some game updates, one or more of the oldest Standard sets are moved out of Standard and into Legacy.

Legacy decks and events are indicated by a blue banner:  .

In events

In a Legacy format event, decks may be played containing cards from either Legacy or Standard card sets. The increased freedom in Legacy events often makes them a higher-powered affair than Standard events.

List of Legacy format events

In decks

Any deck containing at least one Legacy card is a Legacy deck, and may not be played in Standard events.
