    -Updated the Standard format to use the new 2023 Standard format rotation.

    This is from patch notes of today's update, which will happen in 5 hours.

    The information Kot123456 has provided looks correct from the patch notes (they are not very clear, the patch notes I mean).

    However, if I were betting on this ... the "D" cards will stay current until the official "online rotation" which has always been said to be 31 Mar. I believe what the devs are trying to state today on the patch notes is that this patch simply includes the data that will enable the rotation, but it will not be "switched on" until 31 Mar.

    I could be totally wrong, and it may happen at the end of patching today ... but that would leave an odd gap where we have "rotated" the "D" cards out before being able to use the SV cards ... would make for some pretty limited game play in a lot of cases.

    Yes, the wording is not clear on both todays patch notes and SV expansion release patch notes. If youre going to rotate the format without making SV cards playable in the new format, what is the point? Hopefully we get some clarification on this after the maintenance.
