Constructed Format

Over the years many people have asked for a constructed deck option whereby each player brings their own black back deck of cards as their draw deck. This has been discussed at length on the discord as to what this may be;

• No exclusive cards.
  • Exclusives or out of print gives a benefit to the players that either collected the game from the start or have spent a lot of money on the game. This is deemed to be an unfair advantage/disadvantage so are banned for this format.

• Current in-print construction.
  • Only the most recent print release is included;
  • 2nd Edition base set
  • Dragons Expansion
  • Rainbow Apocalypse Expansion
  • Unicorns of Legend Expansion
  • Adventures Expansion
  • Christmas Expansion
  • Nightmares Expansion

• No official two-player Banned list cards.
  • Banned cards have been deemed to be unbalanced or overpowered for a two-player format and these have been excluded for this format with the exception of Basic unicorn cards.

• Competition tournament structures.
  • Following guidelines and structure of TTG/CCGs;
  • These formats impose a specific card limit, however this limit can already be established by the amount of a specific card of the base and expansion used. Magical unicorn cards are determined to be unique and have a limit of one copy of the card.
  • Most TTG/CCGs are structured to play in a certain amount of time to determine a winner from a best-out-of-three format. Using a 50-minute round timeframe to play 3 games adopting this a deck size would be no less than 40 cards and consist of the standard neigh card balance ratio of 12.5% maximum, e.g 40 cards total = 5 neigh cards maximum.
  • Unlike other TTG/CCGs this game has a shared discard pile and this would still be a feature for a constructed format, however this bans any card that would then shuffle that shared discard pile into the deck.
