Promo Cards
« on: April 01, 2009, 10:53:01 PM »
Some cards have only promo versions like Anarion, Lord of Anorien (P) (0P58) and  Radagast's Staff (P) (0P57)...
I want to know in witch formats they are legal, specially if any is movie block legal.

Thanks!

hello Bombadil!

you can play those special premiums cards, which don't have any normal versions*, in all formats.

*it's quite easier to explain that "normal cards" are from the 19 expansions. they got a number between 1 and 19 befor the letter of rarity (R, U, C and P as well)

cheers,

I know this isnt exactly on topic but i just wanted to point out that the nomenclature youre using isnt quite accurate. Premium cards are those released in starter decks only, like Aragorn King in Exile or Gandalf Grey Pilgrim etc...

What you are talking about are promo cards. Might be useful when asking around to use right name. Hope that helps.

And as far as i know you can use those cards, theyre perfectly legal.

Cheers

No those 6 are never legal except in friendly games.

But regardless Arwen, MoR is probably one of my biggest wants.  lol I should probably add it to my list.

Actually, this isn't entirely accurate. The WETA Collection (Anarion, Bombadil's Hat, Radagast's Staff, etc) are considered part of RotK Block. Therefore, you cannot play them in FotR or TTT Block.

Well, I mean that should be common sense, as those cards were printed after FOTR and TTT blocks were.
