For reasons unexplained, Time Wizard will now be a less than accurate mirror of the past.
Q: What are the rules for a Time Wizard Tournament?
A: Time Wizard events use the available Cards, Forbidden & Limited List, rule regarding drawing on the first turn, and the Dueling Field of the selected Time Wizard format.
Starting at the NAWCQ, current Game Mechanics and current card text will be used for Time Wizard Events.
There will primarily be three Time Wizard formats offered as Public Events at the North America WCQ 2025
The first format will use the April 2014 Forbidden and Limited List, and the last legal set will be Realm of Light Structure Deck. This will be the “April 2014” format Time Wizard event. (This format will be used for the Time Wizard ATTACK OF THE GIANT CARD!! Public Event)
The second format will use the March 2010 Forbidden and Limited List, and the last legal set will be Duelist Pack: Kaiba. This will be the “April 2010” format Time Wizard event.
The third format will use the April 2005 Forbidden and Limited List, and the last legal set will be Dark Beginnings 2. This will be the “July 2005” format Time Wizard event.
While these three formats will be the primary formats offered, they aren’t the only formats possible! If you and your friends would like to play a different format, come chat with event staff at Public Events to get your preferred format started!
