Rules

Standard Magic the Gathering Rules apply with the following exception:

  • The tournament is played as a single elimination with only one game per match instead of the usually two out of three. The difference is that after the first game, the amount of life you ended with is the amount you start the next match with. However, you can never start a game with more than twenty life.

Deck Construction

Use standard deck construction rules for this variant.

Sideboard

You can have a 15-card sideboard in Constructed and in Limited the 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 playing Type 1, Type 1.5, Type 2, or Extended Iron Mage 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.
