In June, 2019, digital and paper rules were officially merged, and the definition of Pauper legality was expanded upon in June 2019 to include any card with a common printing in any paper or digital set.
The restriction that only common cards are allowed was however surprisingly difficult to apply to earlier sets, because the so-called C1 commons are effectively as rare as uncommons, but are printed on the common sheet. However, due to the active community, many Magic players started to play Pauper with their physical cards, and applied the Online Banlist to their deck construction. This format included cards which were never printed at common in MTGO such as Sinkhole.Īt first, Paper Pauper had no official banlist. Therefore, the term Paper Pauper was used to distinguish it from its MTGO counterpart.
Since Pauper used to be Magic Online specific format, it didn't extend to physical cards. On the revision of event structure in 2017 May, Pauper Leagues was reintroduced as one of the QP scoring events in MOCS. Their combined chat room is PDC, and is a central meeting spot for the format.Īt the beginning of 2017 Magic Online Championship Series, WotC dropped Pauper as one of the formats the eligible to score QPs accompanied with the introduction of League System, Pauper was exclusively played in casual league which Treasure Chests are rewarded to good finishes. On MTGO, one active community of players of Pauper Magic was the Pauper Deck Challenge or PDC. Pauper is often confused with Peasant, which allows up to five cards of uncommon rarity to be included in each player's library. Magic Arena also supports some of these hybrid formats, though Pauper as it is known elsewhere is not accessible, given the small Historic card pool. Pauper Standard is also a Magic Online sanctioned format. The restriction to common cards found in Pauper format can easily be combined with other formats, such as Standard, Modern, or Block Constructed. Pauper developed as a Magic Online-specific format, but gained official tabletop support in June 2019. Pauper is a constructed format of Magic: The Gathering, in which only common cards are allowed.
