German Highlander is a 1v1 format akin to both legacy and EDH. It has its own banlist similar that of legacy's, yet also allows some powerful vintage-only cards such as Demonic Tutor and Tolarian Academy . Each deck must have a minimum of 100 cards with only one of each, except for basic lands. It plays with the regular Magic rules, except you have one free mulligan. Info about the format can be found at Highlandermagic.net.

Pattern-Rector is an archetype that usually has two ways of winning: either the core combo built around Protean Hulk , or by beating with creatures.
