Most of the banlist announcements were made 2–5 weeks before a Pro Tour event would commence. It was scaled back and further revised in August 2017, after receiving players' feedback.On revision in January 2017, the lists were also announced on the Monday right after prerelease, but additionally 5 weeks after the respective expansion's Pro Tour.At first, this took place on the 20th of each three months, but this was later changed to the Monday after each prerelease event. Previously, they were announced on a regular basis and at a specific date.Bans, or lack thereof, as well as cards being unbanned, are announced on.
The lists are format-specific, so a card that is banned in a format may still be legal to play in other formats.However, cards that are banned in sanction play are also banned in limited. The lists apply only to Constructed formats and not to Limited formats.Cards that either are playing with ante or having art, text, name, or combination thereof that are racially or culturally offensive are banned in all sanctioned events.Only the Vintage format uses a restricted list. Restricted cards can be played but are restricted to only one copy in the deck.To help maintain the diversity and health of the Magic tournament environment, the DCI has developed a system of banned and restricted card lists.
