format:"Modern"

Modern is a constructed format that allows expansion sets, core sets, and Modern Horizons; from Eighth Edition forward, save for the Modern ban list.[1] The modern format thus encompasses all cards that have been printed in a core or expansion set using the modern card frame (plus some others from Time Spiral).

Description

The format was introduced as a non-sanctioned Magic Online format on May 19, 2011, and subsequently officially codified on August 12, 2011, when the format of Pro Tour Philadelphia was changed from Extended to Modern.[2][3][4][5][6][7]

Deck construction

Constructed decks must contain a minimum of sixty cards. There is no maximum deck size; however, you must be able to shuffle your deck with no assistance. Like other constructed formats, a sideboard of exactly fifteen or zero cards can be used.

Except for basic lands (land cards that have the "basic" supertype) and cards like Relentless Rats, a player's combined deck and sideboard may not contain more than four of any individual card, counted by its English card title equivalent.[8]

Set legality

Cards from all regular core sets and expansions since Eighth Edition are legal.[8]

Timeshifted cards in Time Spiral (even never reprinted in the modern frame), cards from Planeswalker decks, and Buy-a-Box promos are considered legal in this format. However, cards reprinted as Masterpiece Series or Bonus sheets are not considered as a part of the respective expansion, and can only be used if they are already legal in Modern.

Straight-to-Modern

Several sets introduce new cards directly into Modern without them ever being legal in Standard. They contain brand new cards and reprints not previously legal in Modern.

Modern Masters

The Modern Masters series contains reprints of Modern-legal cards from Eighth Edition onward. The sets include many cards with new art as well as new, never-before-printed tokens.

Banned List

See also: Timeline of DCI bans and restrictions.

As of March 11th, 2024, the following cards are banned in Modern tournaments:[8][10][11]
