7 Constructed Formats§

A constructed format is defined as a tournament format where players may construct their card-pools from all officially released cards, subject to tournament rules.

The official Card Legality Policy, specifies the legality of cards that can be used for each constructed format. If a card is restricted, a card-pool may only contain up to 1 copy of that unique card. If a card is banned, it cannot be included in a card-pool.

7.1 Classic Constructed Format§

A Player's classic constructed card-pool comprises 1 non-young hero card and a combined maximum of 80 arena-cards and deck-cards. Living legend heroes (hero cards that have more than 1000 living legend points) and their signature weapons are not legal.

A card-pool may contain up to 3 copies of each unique card. A Player must start the game with a minimum of 60 cards in their deck.

These specifications are subject to any meta-static abilities of the cards in the card-pool (e.g. Legendary).

7.2 Living Legend Format§

Living Legend follows the same format rules as Classic Constructed, with a separate banned and restricted list and the following changes:

  • Living legend heroes and their signature weapons are legal.

7.3 Blitz Format§

A Player's blitz card-pool comprises 1 young hero card and a combined maximum of 52 arena-cards and deck-cards. Living legend heroes (hero cards that have more than 1000 living legend points) are not legal.

A card-pool may contain up to 2 copies of each unique card. A Player must start the game with exactly 40 cards in their deck.

These specifications are subject to any meta-static abilities of the cards in the card-pool (e.g. Legendary).

7.4 Commoner Format§

Commoner follows the same format rules as Blitz[7.3], with a separate banned and restricted list and the following changes:

  • A Player's hero can and arena-cards can only be common or rare cards.
  • A Player's deck-cards can only be common cards.

A card is considered a common card for the Commoner format if it has ever been officially printed with basic- or common-rarity.
