Format refers to the ways you can play standard matches. Throwback Rotation is a format where you compete using cards from a previous rotation. You can use cards from the five consecutive card sets of the specified rotation in addition to basic cards. Unlimited is a dynamic play format that lets you use all available cards except Resurgent Cards. Custom Rotation is a format where you can build decks from previous rotations. Card sets 1–6, or any five consecutive card sets from the 3rd set through to the 32nd can be selected.

*With some exceptions, the abilities of the cards from the monthly card pool will be as they were before they were originally rotated out.
*Card abilities will also change within the Unlimited and Custom Rotation formats to match the current card pool in Throwback Rotation.
