Extended was sanctioned on [[Magic Online]] for many years, but the online format was very different from the paper one before 2005, as [[Tempest block]], [[Urza's block]], [[Masques block]], and ''[[Sixth Edition]]'' were not available online, shifting the metagame massively. Nonetheless, events were held using the format.

Extended (originally known as Type 1.X) was a rotating format for Magic: The Gathering that included sets from the most recent few years only, but with a larger pool of cards than Standard.[1][2] Wizards of the Coast no longer supports Extended, having replaced it with the Modern format.[3] Extended was founded in July 1997 from the former Classic-Restricted format (which later became Legacy) and retired on August 7, 2013.[4] It used typical Constructed rules for deck construction.[5]

Retirement

As the popularity of Modern continued to rise, Wizards of the Coast decided to retire Extended as a sanctioned format on August 7, 2013 (approved sanctioned events could be held until October 8, 2013).[3] At the time the format retired, the format permitted cards from the Zendikar block, Magic 2011, the Scars of Mirrodin block, Magic 2012, the Innistrad–Avacyn Restored block, Magic 2013, the Return to Ravnica block, Magic 2014, and Theros.

Current rotation

Though Wizards of the Coast no longer sanctions Extended, its current rotation can still be deduced. The last four rotation blocks are essentially the Extended environment, as opposed to the three last rotation blocks which create Standard. Originally, one core set and the three expansions preceding the core set would make up one rotation "block".

During the period of the Two-Block Paradigm where no core sets were printed, two blocks and the corresponding Welcome Deck made up the rotation block. In the Four-Set model, the four premier sets of the Magic year are counted.

Rotation

When it was retired, Extended included the most recent four years of blocks and core sets, with the oldest year rotating out upon the release of a new block each autumn. (Each core set was grouped with the block preceding it.)

History

When it was founded, Extended included the most recent three years of core sets and expansion sets (excluding Legends), along with all promotional cards that were never printed in a set. This accumulated as new sets were released, and had several blocks rotate out every two to three years (see table below).

On 1 March 2008, Extended changed to the last seven years of blocks and core sets, rotating upon the release of a new block each autumn.[6]

On 18 June 2010, Extended changed to the last four years of blocks and core sets, rotating upon the release of a new block each autumn.[7]
