STANDARD ROATATION CHANGE, again?

Effective immediately, standard rotation will go back to once a year rotation, instead of twice a year. This is due to players that have voiced a difficulty in keeping up with the twice yearly rotation. It is a barrier to collection that WotC has decided it needs to eliminate.


Instead of 18 months, Kaladesh will be in standard rotation for 2 years with the large set that is to be released in 2018. After that time, Aether Revolt will rotate out with Kaladesh. Meanwhile, in 2017,  the Amonkhet set won't be rotating out.


When Amonkhet is released the standard line with look like this:

• Battle for Zendikar
• Shadows over Innistrad
• Kaladesh
• Amonkhet

When the time comes for the next rotation, the Battle for Zendikar and Shadows Over Innistrad blocks will rotate out together, making the standard set fluctuate between 5 and 8 legal sets.


As always thanks for reading my blog!
