Rules

For this variant you must have a deck that meets the following requirements:

  • Constructed: Each deck must be 200 cards, and have at least 5 cards of each color.

  • Limited: Each deck must have 60-cards minimum.

You must also have a “Rules Deck” constructed before the game starts.

Before the beginning of each players turn, the top card is flipped over. This card takes effect as a “rule”. This “rule” cannot be destroyed, removed or altered by spells or abilities. Once two “rules” are in play then the next one flipped over will bump the first one out. The rule bumped out will be put into a “Rules Discarded” pile. Once the Rules deck is out of cards shuffle the “Game Rule Deck” discard pile and it now become the new Rules Deck.

Deck Construction

Use the following card list for building a “Rules Deck.” This is just a sample deck. You may make changes to the list as you see fit.

Sideboard

You can have a 15-card sideboard in Constructed and in Limited the remainder of your cards you don’t use are your sideboard.

Banned & Restricted List

When playing this variant it is usually decided what Type you will be playing. So, if you are playing Type 1, Type 1.5, Type 2, or Extended Deck of Effects then, follow that format’s Banned and Restricted List.

Mulligan Rules

Standard “Paris” Mulligan is used for this variant.

Before each game begins, a player may, for any reason, reshuffle and redraw his hand, drawing one less card. This may be repeated as often as the player wishes, until he has no cards left in his hand. After the participant, who plays first, mulligans as often as he likes, the decision of whether to mulligan passes to the other player. Once a player passes the opportunity to mulligan, that player may not change his mind.
