Battlecruiser is a variant of EDH or commander. It differs from normal EDH in the following ways:
Only rares and mythic rares are allowed apart from basic lands
All nonland cards must have a converted mana cost of 5 or greater
Starting life total is 60
A player dies if they have 30 poison counters
There is no "commander damage"
Each player begins the game with three emblems which are copies of any basic lands of their choice.
This list is cards banned in the format. Additionally, all split cards and aftermath cards are banned as well, as they pose too much potential for violating the spirit of the format.
