Rules and FAQ for Peasant
le 28/09/2014 13:24
GENERAL

Peasant Magic is an alternative format to Magic The Gathering.

Decklists should contain only common cards and a maximum of 5 uncommons. There is no rare and no mythic rare.

All sets are allowed.


DETAILED RULES

Introduction
These rules and bans contained therein, are the ones which are most similar to a set of official rules in Europe.

In order to favor communication between players, uniformity in rules applied to different tournaments is obviously preferable.

However Peasant is an unofficial variant, each organizer is free to do as he wishes and his decisions have to be applied to the events he organizes. He's in charge to communicate clearly about the points he would like to change in the rules presented here.


Deck
Usual construction rules apply (60 cards minimum, 4 copies of a single card maximum...), except the following points :

Rarity
at least 55 common cards.
at most 5 uncommon cards (sideboard included).
no rare and no mythic rare.

The lowest rarity should be considered to determine the rarity of a card in Peasant :
- a card published as common and uncommon in different sets is considered common.
- a card published as uncommon and rare in different sets is considered uncommon.
For example, Rancor was printed common in Urza's Legacy, so Rancor is common.

Authorized sets
All sets allowed in Type 1. This includes also Commander and Planechase sets.
Promotionnal cards are not allowed, virtual sets are allowed.
Renaissance and Anthologies sets are not allowed due to lack of reliable data on rarities in these sets (anyway, these sets don't appear in the Gatherer).

Please note that original rules allow Unglued and Unhinged, and some sites and articles may refer to them. But these sets are not allowed in the present rules.

Banned cards
There are two banlists pending unification of the rules in Europe.
France :
all ante cards, planes, schemes, conspiracies and other cards not allowed in Type 1.
Bazaar of Baghdad, Berserk, Brain Freeze, Cranial Plating, Diamond Valley, Empty the Warrens, Force of Will, Frantic Search, Library of Alexandria, Mana Drain, Skullclamp, Sol Ring, Strip Mine, Tendrils of Agony.
Germany :
all ante cards, planes, schemes, conspiracies and other cards not allowed in Type 1.
Bazaar of Baghdad, Brain Freeze, Cranial Plating, Demonic Consultation, Empty the Warrens, Frantic Search, Invigorate, Library of Alexandria, Mana Drain, Skullclamp, Sol Ring, Strip Mine, Temporal Fissure, Tendrils of Agony, Thopter Foundry.

Restrictions on other formats do not apply to Peasant Magic (for example, you can play 4 Demonic Tutor).

Links
The official rarity of the cards is on the Gatherer, which is available here.
Databases of Magic-Ville and MTG-Peasant are up to date.

How to use the Gatherer :
By default, the Gatherer is configured in the language of your country, results will only show you the cards printed in your language. For example, if you are French and you are searching Black Lotus, the Gatherer will give you no result because this card was never printed in French. In order to determine the rarity of a card for Peasant, you should configure the Gatherer in English. To do that, please click on Settings or Language at the bottom of the page, then select "English" as "Preferred Language" and click on "Save".


SPECIAL CASES AND DETAILS

Before Exodus, all cards had the same black extension logo. So we can't distinguish rare and uncommon from common.

The old sets (before Mirage) had a different system of rarities which was used in the original rules of Peasant (based on Checklists). Checklists are no longer a reliable source for Peasant, we should now refer to the Gatherer.

Here are some representative cases :
Mishra's Factory and Maze of Ith are no longer common, they are uncommon.
Death Spark was published as common in Master Edition II (virtual set), so it is common for peasant.
Relentless Rats is considered as common (it is possible to build a deck with 30 Relentless Rats and add 5 Uncommons).
Purple cards (Time Shifted of Time Spiral) are considered as rare. Of course, you can play them if they were edited as common or uncommon in an other set (Avoid Fate for example).

Bon, normalement niveau anglais, ce devrait être plutôt bon.
Niveau contenu, j'ai copié sur les règles du forum en y ajoutant la banlist allemande, et en fait je pense que je vais faire pareil pour les règles sur le forum MV (elles sont à reprendre, il faut que j'y retire Shahrazad de la banlist).

QQn à la date de dernière MAJ de la banlist allemande ?

Si vous avec des commentaires ou des ajouts à y faire, lâchez-vous !

Niveau contenu: super, juste ta remarque sur les logos noirs je ne suis pas sûr de ce que tu voulais dire, mais il me semble que sur gatherer, les symboles d'éditions sont colorés.

Niveau anglais c'est excellent! Je m'interroge sur 2-3 trucs, mais c'est largement compréhensible donc c'est de la pinaille à ce niveau là :D Et y a de bonnes chances que ce soit moi qui me trompe alors à prendre avec des pincettes:
Je dirais plutôt "on gatherer" que "in gatherer", possible que les 2 marchent. Ensuite "in charge of + ing" au lieu de "in charge to + bv".

Enfin, vérifier qu'eux aussi mettent Relentless rats commun. Au passage je trouve ça un peu bête comme exception, je trouve que l'autoriser en x40 sans unco en plus est bien plus clair.

Ce sera mieux. Pas de couleurs différentes sur les cartes imprimées avant Exode (exclu).

Pour l'anglais, j'ai fait corriger par madame "980 au TOEIC", donc il se peut qu'il y ait quelques erreurs.
"On Gatherer" ou "In Gatherer", on s'est effectivement posé la question et elle a tranché en disant que les 2 devaient se dire ^^ Mais à chercher en effet.
"in charge of +ing" en effet, à corriger.

Pour les Rats, à demander.

au fait, le "in gatherer" est tout à fait juste, et le "on" était possiblement faux :)
