CU - Tribal: Rules and Introduction

This tribal tournament is a casual format that allows players to explore the lesser tribes in magic. Mainstream tribes such as goblins, elves, clerics and zombies are banned. This may seem to limit playable creatures, however there are many creatures still to chose from. To help explore possible creature choices, a list of many playable creature types has been listed further below.

Rules for this format:
- Your main deck must consist of 20 or more creatures sharing a type not listed on the banned list

- Your deck may contain up to 4 creatures with the Changeling ability.

- Your main deck may contain up to 4 creatures not of your tribe.

- Your sideboard may contain up to 4 creatures not of your tribe.

- Your deck must be legal in Legacy (aka Type 1.5).
- In addition, there is a short banned list for CU-Tribal as well (see Below).
