Spy Constructed

Rules

For this variant, players must build a deck and turn in a deck list without their sideboard. Deck lists will consist of two areas: Unprotected and hidden cards. A player’s unprotected list must consist of a minimum of 50 cards. A player’s hidden list consists of his remaining cards. 30 minutes before the event start players will be given the unprotected card lists of all players involved in the tournament. From there, all players have the remaining 30 minutes to build their 15-card sideboard. Sideboard information will be hidden from all players.

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 Spy Constructed 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.

History

This variant came from Event Horizons 1999 Invitational.
