Extended (also known as Type 1.X) was a rotating format that included editions from the most recent few years only.[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 made the decision 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, one core set and the three expansions preceding the core set make up one rotation "block". The last four rotation blocks are essentially the Extended environment, as opposed to the two last rotation blocks which create Standard.

During the period of the Two-Block Paradigm where no core sets where printed, two blocks and the corresponding Welcome Deck made up the rotation block.

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]
