=== Card Errata ===

*'''Extended''': <c>Yawgmoth's Bargain</c> is banned.
 
===Card Errata===
*<c>Iridescent Drake</c> receives the same erratum as the "free" creatures. It should read, "When Iridescent Drake comes into play, if you played it from your hand, return target enchant creature card from a graveyard to play enchanting Iridescent Drake. (You control that enchantment.)"
*<c>Lion's Eye Diamond</c> should read, "Sacrifice Lion's Eye Diamond, Discard your hand: Add three mana of any one color to your mana pool. Play this ability as an instant." This erratum causes Lion's Eye Diamond to function as it did under Fifth Edition rules.
*<c>Lotus Vale</c> should read, "When Lotus Vale comes into play, you may sacrifice two untapped lands. If you don't, sacrifice Lotus Vale. If you do, Lotus Vale gains 'T: Add three mana of any one color to your mana pool.'" This erratum causes Lotus Vale to function as it did under Fifth Edition rules; you can't tap it for mana without first sacrificing two untapped lands.
*<c>Scorched Ruins</c> should read, "When Scorched Ruins comes into play, you may sacrifice two untapped lands. If you don't, sacrifice Scorched Ruins. If you do, Scorched Ruins gains 'T: Add four colorless mana to your mana pool.'" This erratum causes Scorched Ruins to function as it did under Fifth Edition rules; you can't tap it for mana without first sacrificing two untapped lands.

Banned and restricted cards/Timeline
 
Timeline
 

The DCI announces bans and restrictions of cards for their sanctioned formats if they deemed necessary to do so. In normal cases, these announcements are made on Mondays and take effect within a few days.

Previously, such announcements used to be made in a scheduled basis (usually two to three months) with coherence of Standard legal sets and major tournaments like the Pro Tour[1][2].

The following is a list of these announcements and their changes in chronological order. Formats that are not mentioned have seen no changes made to them in the respective announcements.

1994

The concept of formats doesn't yet exist as of this time. Vintage (Type 1) and Standard (Type 2) will be introduced in 1995.

January

February

August

October

1995

January

  • Standard: Format introduced on January 10 (then called "Type 2"), inheriting banned and restricted lists from Vintage (then called "Type 1"). Legal standard expansions are then the most current basic set (Revised Edition at the time) and the latest two Magic expansions only (The Dark and Fallen Empires). Unlike in Vintage, the head judge cannot ban cards from any such legal expansion.[11]

April

October

  • Standard: new deck construction rules. Standard (Type 2) can be composed of cards from the most recent edition of Magic The Gathering (Fourth Edition at the time), white border extensions (Chronicles), and all available limited edition expansions (Ice Age, Fallen Empires, and soon Homelands).[14]

November

1996

February

April

May

  • Legacy: Format is created (then called Type 1.5). "Type 1.5 tournament decks may be constructed from Magic: The Gathering cards from the Limited (first edition, with black border) series, the Unlimited (second edition), Revised (third edition), Fourth Edition, any other Magic: The Gathering expansion (unless expressly disallowed by the head judge prior to the event), and promotional cards released by Wizards of the Coast in magazines or through books." There are no restricted cards. The list of banned cards is the sum of all cards that are either restricted or banned in Vintage or Standard.[16]

July

  • Standard: Land Tax is restricted.
  • Legacy: Land Tax is banned.[9]
  • The fan format Commander, then called "Elder Dragon Highlander" (EDH), is popularized by the article "Elder Dragon Legend Wars" in The Duelist magazine.

October

1997

January

  • Standard: All cards on the restricted list are moved to the banned list.[19]

2017

The announcement schedule is changed to Monday following each expansion's release prerelease event as well as the fifth Monday after the Pro Tour of respective expansion.[74] The schedule was scaled back and revised in June 2017: Banned and restricted announcements are decoupled from set releases and the competitive schedule. Instead, updates are announced on a scheduled basis, which are mostly in a 2-3 month span.[75]
