Regular REL M14 Rules & Policy Changes Effective Dates Clarification
If I understand correctly, Comprehensive Rules updates take effect 7/13, while MTR/IPG updates take effect 7/19.
During this nebulous week, many local game stores will still have their constructed tournaments.
Things that will change for “Monday Night Magic” (Standard/Legacy)
1. Planeswalker Uniqueness and Legend Rules
2. Sideboards can be 15 or less cards (CR 100.4)- not that we'd do anything at Regular REL anyways other than “your sideboard should be 15 or 0 cards”
3. Indestructible is an ability, and Boros Charm/Rootborn Defenses are errata'd
4. “Land plays”
5. Token ownership (Forbidden Orchard and “Hunted” erratas)
6. Convoke/Delve no longer additional costs
7. Expansion symbols no longer a characteristic
8. Duplicant has P/T and creature type of the LATEST card imprinted
The rules for how to Sideboard are outlined in the MTR (effective 7/19), so players must still sideboard 1-for-1 until then, right?
