New Year's Resolution Format

New Year's Resolution Format is a Deck format used in the Pegasus League from March 1 to April 30, 2010. It uses a shortened version of the Advanced Format list to accommodate the restricted list of usable cards. It is the only Pegasus League format that was not turned into a Pegasus Challenge.

In this format, players can only use cards released in one of several specific sets. It is the cards themselves that are restricted, not the specific prints; as such, if a card included in the permitted sets was also printed in a non-permitted set, the print from the non-permitted set may be used instead.

Permitted cards
Cards used must have been printed in at least one of the following sets:
 * Raging Battle
 * Ancient Prophecy
 * Stardust Overdrive
