This September there can be only one! Face off in the illustrious Ancients format with a hitch: Richard Carter's self-imposed deckbuilding stipulation applies to every participant! That's right, the special event this month is Ancients Highlander which means you can't have more than one copy of any card in your deck! But just to spice things up a bit this time around, we’ve decided to ban the following ‘search Warlords’ for this event only.
The following cards, in addition to the normal Ancients list, are banned for this event:
Adarymy
Allisara

Ancients is a player created and maintained ‘limited’ Open format with a banned and restricted list that seeks to keep things fresh and healthy while as wide open as possible. You can find the Ancients Format rules here.
On The Accordlands website you can set the ‘Format’ filter to Ancients to search for Ancients-legal cards to build your deck with.
Highlander is a deckbuilding restriction playing off the famous Highlander movie line “there can be only one”. And that’s exactly how the format works! There can be only one copy of each card in your decklists regardless of other rules. Only one Zartoch, one Brine Fiend, one Zombie. It’s as simple as that.
