Contents
Old School 93-94[edit | edit source]
In this format only cards that were printed in 1993 and 1994 (the first 2 years of Magic) are allowed (as are reprints of those cards, typically).[2][3]
Legal sets[edit | edit source]
- Alpha
- Beta
- Unlimited
- Arabian Nights
- Antiquities
- Legends
- The Dark
- Fallen Empires
- 1994 Book Promos (Arena and Sewers of Estark)
Reprints of cards from legal sets are allowed if their art matches the art from a version of the card in one of the legal sets listed above and as long as they use the original Magic card frame. Collectors' Edition and other gold-bordered cards aren’t allowed, and neither are foils.
Old School 95[edit | edit source]
Old School 95 encapsulates all of the sets printed through the end of 1995, including Ice Age.
Old School 96[edit | edit source]
Simarly, Old School 96 features all of the sets printed through the end of 1996, inclduing Alliances and Mirage.
Classic Magic[edit | edit source]
Classic Magic embodies the feeling of the first 10+ years of Magic, from Alpha through Scourge, before the creation of the modern card frame.
