Rules questions belong in the Q&A, which is linked in the header bar.

This website is horrendously notorious for being out of date with card legality. I don't recommend this website as a resource for determining things like card legality. The standard card pool is small enough that it's not hard to familiarize yourself with the legal sets.

Femme_Fatale might take exception to those harsh words ;)
Seriously, a few of us have busted ass to make the database operational.

Combining the facts that the database is finicky on a good day and every bit of card information has to be input manually, it's almost a miracle most cards do have proper legality, reverendvile777. There's a way to say "Always check (insert other, more trustworthy site here)" that doesn't involve slamming the hard work femme_fatale and everyone does. :)

I'm not being harsh, I'm being honest. Every week I have a kid get heated with me because they built a deck on here and thought their deck was legal. The statement isn't meant to knock tappedout, more so a knock on people who can't figure out the 5 sets that are legal in standard. (It's not like it's that much)
Besides, this site offers premium services, they should be open to criticism if they're gonna attempt to collect money from the site (my opinion).

Which cards are showing up as legal in standard? There shouldn't be a single card beyond the cards in Theros block, M15 and KTK that are standard legal. It is part of fault of the user base, for not bringing up the issue to the admins, so you can't blame it on the site or the people who run it, because we don't even know that the problem exists.
As for current cards showing up as illegal when they shouldn't be, all you have to do to make your cards legal in standard is to uncheck the prototype option on your deck reverendvile777. Once you've done this, the deck will check which formats each card is legal in against the format the deck is currently listed as. This seems to be the only way to refresh legality status of your deck, as it isn't done automatically.

No, Jace, Architect of Thought is not standard legal. Duel Decks don't effect standard legality as they are supplemental products. Only core sets and blocks go into standard.
