Star (also known as Pentagram or Five-Point) is a constructed Magic: The Gathering format that is played by five players, each representing one of the five colors of Magic (white, blue, black, red and green). [1] [2] Their deck may not include any cards that reference a different color or a land that produces a different color of mana.

Players sit in a star pattern identical to the one on the back of every Magic card. The player with the white deck takes the first time and then play continues clockwise around the table.

A color, and the player representing it, wins when its two enemy colors have been eliminated regardless of who eliminated them. This means a player may be able to win even after being eliminated from play! Each player can attack any other player (even their allies), and each player can target any player, permanent, spell or anything else in the game. Decks are usually built following Standard deck-construction rules, but players can determine for themselves if they'd rather use Modern, Legacy, Vintage or any other format.
