Wizards Changes RCQ Format Selection
In future RCQ seasons, stores will now only have the option of running events either as the current Limited format or a singular pre-determined constructed format.
In a response to player feedback, Wizards of the Coast has announced a change in format selection for the RCQ system.
Going forward, in future RCQ seasons, stores will now only have the option of running events either as the current Limited format or a singular pre-determined constructed format. This change will replace the current system of allowing stores to run their events as limited or a constructed format of their choice between Standard, Modern and Pioneer.
While time will tell if this change is overall positive for the playerbase at large, this should help out those players in areas where RCQ format selection was being curtailed to formats outside of their interest or budgetary ranges.
More details on these changes to come on the WeeklyMTG live stream set to take place Tuesday February 7th.
