Standard Blocks
Standard forum

Casual player for a while, started playing standard last October with RTR. I know the basics of block rotation, but what about core sets?
When M14 comes out, M13 will still be playable?
But when Theros is available, then M13 and the whole Innistrad block rotates out? Or is M13 around until something else?
Thanks
I believe once m14 is released, m13 and the innistrad block will rotate out of standard.

2013 and 2014 will be standard until Theros. Then, 2013 and Innistrad will rotate out.

There is a page on wikipedia that some folks update every rotation telling you what it's standard. It also goes into detail about how rotation works.

Thanks!
Looks like my BUG deck will need a replacement for Primordial Hydra when Theros arrives. Unless we get a reprint again?

I can't give specific dates, though I'm guessing Oct. 1 is the cut off. As soon as the next expansion comes out, Innistrad and M13 will rotate out of standard. With regards to the Core sets, theres about a Month or so when M13 and M14 will be in standard at the same time. I remember that special summer when M11 and M12 were in standard at the same time. You could build a deck with Lightning Bolt and Incinerate together in it. That was a good time for burn.
