What if Legacy only included cards that went through Standard?

This week, Zac is joined by Arkratos to explore Heritage, a community-driven Eternal format that preserves Legacy's foundation while excluding supplemental products like Modern Horizons and cards that never entered Standard. The result is a familiar—but dramatically different—format that continues to evolve with every in-universe Standard release.

In this episode we discuss:

  • What Heritage is and how it differs from Legacy
  • Why Standard-only card legality creates a healthier metagame
  • The impact of removing supplemental products
  • Why cards like Bowmasters and Modern Horizons staples aren't present
  • New archetypes built around Moonshadow, Archmage's Newt, and Likeness Looter
  • BUG Beans, Dreadnought, Cradle Control, and Mono Black innovations
  • How Heritage handles bans independently from Legacy
  • Why community-driven formats continue to grow
  • How to build a local Heritage community and get involved today

If you've been looking for an Eternal format that still evolves—but at a more manageable pace—Heritage may be exactly what you're looking for.

Would you give Heritage a try?
