How do I find or brew a decklist? Minimum 60 cards. Any number of basic lands. Max four of any other legal card. Sideboard of up to fifteen cards. The best way to build decks is to use a search engine that supports Penny Dreadful legality (f:pd) like Scryfall.

Leagues last for roughly a month. You may enter any number of times but only one deck at a time. You play five matches per run. You can join the league at any time. To find a game sign up and then create a game in Constructed, Specialty, Freeform Tournament Practice with "Penny Dreadful League" as the comment.

We have six free-to-enter weekly tournaments with prizes from Cardhoarder. They are hosted on Gatherling along with a lot of other player-run Magic Online events. -
Legality is determined a week after the release of a Standard-legal set on Magic Online. Prices are checked every hour for a week. Anything 2¢ or less for half or more of all checks is legal for the season. Any version of a card on the legal cards list is legal. The next rotation is in 1 day, 8 hours.
