Do you want to play something different that doesn't have dual lands or extremely expensive cards that unmatched the little friend's deck? So, me too ... Developed by Shapersavant, this format abandons the conventional Reserved list, reduces the deck to 80 cards and ban some broken cards that would end the game. In addition, planeswalkers can be commanders.

Are you excited? So let's go to the list of official rules of this unsanctioned format.

CONQUEST rules

Changes to the normal commander:

• Commander can be a creature or planeswalker

Ad

• 30 life in multiplayer. 25 health in 1x1.

• 12 commander damage finishes the game.

• Decks with a minimum of 80 cards.

Ban List

The entire Reserved List.

All cards with the type "Conspirancy" or with the reference "playing ante". Cards with a silver border are not legal in Conquest.

Banned as commander:

Oko, Thief of Crowns

Thrasios, Triton Hero

.... and as well as in Commander, no Otter companion:

Lutri, the Spellchaser (see you around, boy !!!)

I haven't seen any inconsistencies yet. Actually, it increases accessibility to decks and mechanics and takes away some broken moves that we see in Commander. Most cards that are mandatory insta wins here are banned .... the end of the pay-to-win!

I would love that this format got more popular. Do you think it will? What are your opinions? I hope you enjoyed it!
