Magic The Gathering Old school: Format 93/94 in Toronto
This format revives the soul of the game, the way it took over the world in the 90s. It is a bit slower and much less broken than what can be seen in Vintage.
Moreover it is an opportunity to play cards that we used to love such at Juzam Djin, Birds of Paradise, Vesuvan Doppelganger or other Shivan Dragon. Legal Sets in 93-94 Constructed :
