Unfortunately, due to a series of unfortunate errors on the part of Decipher, cards ended up being made *cough* Steadfast Champion*cough* that were eventually banned for doing things like discarding your opponents deck, hand, minions and all conditions, and then making the move limit infinite...or other...bad things. So here we have a list of things that you cannot cram in your decks. In each appropriate format. Standard Format X-List (None of these cards are legal for standard play).All cards from sets 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 All promotional cards 0P1 - 0P19, 0P21, 0P22, 0P30 - 0P47 and 0P62 -0P67 Aggression Courtyard ParapetDemoralized Final Account Galadriel, Lady Redeemed Madril, Defender of Osgiliath Memories of Darkness Mordor Fiend Orkish SmithSteadfast Champion Strange-Looking MenStandard Format R-List (A maximum of one copy each of these cards may be included in a standard deck).(none)Expanded Format X-List (None of these cards are legal for expanded play).Aggression Aragorn, Heir to the White City A Talent for not Being Seen Final Account Frying Pan Galadriel, Lady of Light Galadriel, Lady of the Golden Wood Galadriel, Lady Redeemed Gimli, Dwarf of the Mountain-race Horn of Boromir Legolas, Dauntless Hunter Memories of Darkness Mordor Fiend Orkish SmithSam, Son of Hamfast Saruman, Keeper of Isengard Saruman's Snows Steadfast Champion Sting Strange-Looking MenThe Palantir of Orthanc The Shire Countryside Ulaire Nertea, Messenger of Dol GuldurExpanded Format R-List (A maximum of one copy each of these cards may be included in an expanded deck).Bill the Pony Bill Ferny, Swarthy Sneering FellowElrond, Lord of Rivendell Flaming Brand Fortress Never Fallen Forces of Mordor Get on and Get Away No Stranger to the Shadows Ottar, Man of Laketown Relics of Moria Savagery to Match Their Numbers Open Format X-List (None of these cards are legal for open play).(none- knock yourself out )Open Format R-List (A maximum of one copy each of these cards may be included in an open deck).Forces of Mordor Memories of Darkness Mordor FiendOrkish SmithSteadfast Champion Strange-Looking MenBlock FormatsFellowship Block- Sets 1 through 3 only -Same Restricted List as Open Towers Block- Sets 4 through 6 only -Same Restricted List as Open King Block- Sets 7, 8 and 10 only -Same Restricted List as Open -Gondorian Captain banned in most play War of the Ring Block- Sets 11 through 13 only -Same Restricted List as Open Hunters Block- Sets 15, 17 and 18 only -Same Restricted List as Open Alternate FormatsNo-Rares-No Rare Cards Allowed -Expanded Format X-list Movie Block-Sets 1-10 allowed; King sites -X-List AggressionAragorn, Heir to the White CityBill the PonyElrond, Lord of RivendellFlaming BrandForces of MordorFrying PanGaladriel, Lady of LightGondorian CaptainHorn of BoromirMemories of DarknessMordor FiendNo Stranger to the ShadowsOttar, Man of LaketownThe Palantir of OrthancRelics of MoriaSaruman, Keeper of IsengardSavagery to Match Their NumbersSteadfast ChampionStingUlaire Nertea, Messenger of Dol Guldur Culture Shock-Expanded Format X-list -Only cards of one culture allowed on each side of the deck (ring-bearer excepted) Highlander-No X-list -All cards restricted to one copy per deck Enjoy! ~NB

From LOTRO at least, Movie Block includes set 9. Link to their formats page.

Pepin played me a few times lately and in every movieblock deck I have includes 4 copies of Shire Countryside. He keeps saying it is banned, but I don't see the support for that claim...help me, please

If you're playing the game as it was like before Shadows was released, The Shire Countryside would be legal.

The fact is that Movie Block don´t have any official rulling that i know so we must get to some agreement around it. I always played with expanded X and R lists in movie block. I just found that with mount doom cards like A Light in His Mind and even Nine-Fingered Frodo and the Ring of Doom it´s just a crazy healing machine but i agree that we have other cards that are powerful as well and aren´t banned. I think the best solution is to do some agreement between the players. I have also played movie block against Sam, SoH and i really don´t know what is the reason that would make him x-ed in expanded and not in movie. Our good sense are above some rullings (or the lack of it in this case) so we can manage to get some deal around it. All the games i face the mentioned cards we continued to play without problems and they don´t screw up the game with some dort of crazy loop combo so i think there is not much problem with that. Anyway i´m just happy that people here are trying to adventure in movie block! We can make a SdA tourney maybe...

How about this movie block deck: Put your Shire Countryside at table. Use Frodo that add burdens to wound minions, PATHS, Merry that add strenght to other companion, Smego that add a burden to get st+2 paired with this things to get burdens out (Nine-fingered, light in his mind, sam, soh, etc...) and take no wounds you will have a almost imortal companion (Smeagol), a very protected RB and the mass exertion you will need to do this every time will just be gone as soon as they were added... EDIT: Ah, we can´t forget the main card Not Listening ( 6C43) So make Smego BIG enough to win some skirmish remove burdens and heals all the party  Next turn? Peel tehe burdens out with Sam and heal him and Merry with countryside using Not Listening ( 6C43), a A Light in His Mind ( 10U108) or Nine-fingered Frodo and the Ring of Doom ( 10C112)... Pretty powerfull don´t you think?

I don't disagree that TSC is overpowered/broken, but that's the X-List I think most people here would assume to be in effect, and it's the one LOTRO uses. Maybe it could've been called King Standard instead or something. But if you're on the same page with your opponent, you can of course ban (or un-ban) anything you'd like (personally I'm still waiting for Madril DoO to be kicked from Expanded).

and it's the one LOTRO uses.
And it's also documented in some old CRD's. Overpowered or not, you have to agree on something unless/until a PC is established... Of course, I am more than happy to abuse The Shire Countryside myself.  Your shadow needs some condition discarding!

Highlander question. 1 copy of each card is allowed. Does it matter if I have multiple Aragorns, but different subtitles?

Ok guys, help me here. If you play movieblock, without Reflections, what are the rulings regarding different cards. I mean, cancelling RB skirmish was banned due to the Reflections. etc etc etc. How do you play it?

I'd say it's ok to cancel skirmishes if reflections is not allowed. Movie Block is a format created for players anyway and there is no official rulings for it, as far as I'm concerned. I don't even know how accurate is the X-List on this topic for movie block, 'cause i thought Galadriel, LR was banned before shadows.
