When Standard (then called "Type 2") was created on January 10, 1995, it inherited the banned and restricted lists from Vintage (then "Type 1"). Īs of 2023, the rotation for Standard shifted to to every three years rather than every two years. With a late fall release instead of a summer release, this functionally means that the shortest-legal set goes from the minimum of 15 months to about 17 months, though each set shrinks their draft rotation time by a few weeks. There will still be a non-premier product released in the summer. Starting in 2021, Wizards of the Coast is trying a new schedule where the premier sets are early fall, late fall, winter, and spring (dates based on Northern Hemisphere seasons.) For example, When Ixalan set released in fall 2017, Battle for Zendikar, Oath of the Gatewatch, Shadows over Innistrad, Eldritch Moon, and Welcome Deck 2016 (which counted as a part Shadows over Innistrad in rotation) rotated out of Standard.īecause of this, no set is Standard-legal for more than two years. For example, fall 2019 rotation caused Ixalan, Rivals of Ixalan, Dominaria, and Core 2019 to leave Standard.īefore the Three-and-One Model, the two oldest blocks still legal in Standard would rotate out of the format. Since the introduction of Three-and-One Model in 2019 (or effectively in 2018), once a year with the release of a new fall set the four oldest expansion/core sets in Standard, as well as any other Standard-legal set released during that period will rotate out.
