Overview

Legacy is a card set format which includes all card sets.

Legacy is often contrasted to Standard, a format including Origins plus some of the newest card sets, or Block format, which includes selected card sets only. Legacy format is associated with the Legacy Ribbon ( ).

In events

In a Legacy Format event, decks may contain any card, since the Legacy format includes all 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 one or more non-Standard format card is a Legacy deck, and may only be played in Legacy events.

  • A Standard format Deck shows no ribbon in the deck editor.
  • A Legacy format Deck shows the Legacy Ribbon ( ) with the deck.
