Extended Magic Changes

The following was announced by WOTC last week

Magic: The Gathering Tournament Rules Change: Extended
On July 1, 2010, the following sets will leave the Extended format: Ninth Edition, Mirrodin, Darksteel, Fifth Dawn, Champions of Kamigawa, Betrayers of Kamigawa, Saviors of Kamigawa, Ravnica: City of Guilds, Guildpact, Dissension, and Coldsnap. From that point forward, the Extended format will include approximately four years of Magic sets instead of seven.

At that time, the following sets will be legal in the Extended format: Time Spiral, Planar Chaos, Future Sight, Tenth Edition, Lorwyn, Morningtide, Shadowmoor, Eventide, Shards of Alara, Conflux, Alara Reborn, Magic 2010, Zendikar, Worldwake, and Rise of the Eldrazi.

With the upcoming release of Scars of Mirrodin, the following sets will leave the Extended format: Time Spiral, Planar Chaos, Future Sight, and Tenth Edition. One year's worth of releases will leave Extended with every subsequent fall Magic set.

Extended
Sword of the Meek is banned.
Hypergenesis is banned.

Note: The four cards previously on the banned list (Æther Vial, Disciple of the Vault, Sensei's Divining Top, and Skullclamp) are in sets that are no longer in the Extended format.

So with that in mind .... who would be interested in an Extended Event sooner rather than later in Grimsby ?

M11 Pre Release and Release Events

Hi Everyone,

 

For those wishing to see the latest Core Set I have two events planned in July

 

Sunday 11th July M11 Pre Release

 

Sunday 18th July M11 Release Event

 

Both Events will be Sealed Deck with 6 Boosters per player of M11.

 

Entry Fee £22.00 inc subs

 

Doors Open     : 11.00 am

Event Starts    :  11:30 am

 

I would hope for Round 1 to commence at approximately 12.30 and envisage four rounds of Magic based on previous numbers attending though would be great to be over 16 players and have five rounds to decide the winner.

 

Please Pre Register to reserve your space.

 

Regards,
