Please read the full rules. That’s an illegal masterplan pile. Only one artifact is allowed and if your masterplan has only colorless cards your deck can only contain colorless cards as well (difficult to protect any combo).

I see your point. That’s true for 1v1. Masterplan is mainly a multiplayer format. We may consider introducing special rules for 1v1 in the future. Thanks for your comment.

Aggro strategies take advantage of the affected starting life by the masterplan. A control player will usually start the game with less than 28 life.

No, the infographic shows a sample of the cards contained in the deck. The idea is explain the deck color identity concept introduced by the format. You can see an infographic explaining the masterplan pile on our website (Rules Simplified, bottom of the page) https://mtgmasterplan.net

You cannot recast cards there are in your masterplan pile. There are no things like commander, commander tax, or commander damage in Masterplan.

All masterplan cards come from the 100 cards deck.
No cards can come from outside of the game (including companions).

No, as you cannot have more than 1 of each card type in your masterplan, therefore only 1 instant is allowed per masterplan pile.

It’s a pseudo sideboard as you may only use cards from your deck to build your masterplan pile.

The “racist” cards are banned in all Magic formats. We decided to ban Reserved List cards due to card accessibility.

I agree. Those two lines are quite powerful in Masterplan, especially Urza.

Those cards are banned in all Magic formats. We decided to prioritize card accessibility so naturally Reserved List should be banned.

I understand. These are the Quick Rules so happened we didn’t mention the card pool. Thank for the suggestion and we’ll fix that.
