The [[Standard Format]] Exclusion List or X-List was created by Decipher on March 25, 2003 in an effort to create a more vibrant and competitive tournament environment.  The cards on this list were prohibited from being played in decks because they were deemed by Decipher to be over-powered, under-costed, or lacking cultural enforcement.  The X-list underwent a regular review by the DGMA every three months (March 31, June 30, September 30, December 31).  Cards were added and removed to the list as warranted. 


After the introduction of set [[rotation]] on March 25, 2005 when Black Rider cards became tournament legal and Expanded Format was created as an official Format by Decipher, the Expanded format X- and R-Lists were also created.  The cards that were on the [[Standard Format]] Exclusion list were voted upon by players, master players and Decipher playtesters for inclusion on either the initial [[Expanded Format]] X- or R-List.  The results were announced on March 22, 2005.
An Exclusion List, or '''X-List''', is any list for a format which defines cards that are banned and cannot be included for decks to be legal in that format.  This extends to alternate prints of a given card; many cards had [[Promotional]] card previews or reprints, and these carbon-copies are always disallowed automatically as well.

An Exclusion List, or X-List, is any list for a format which defines cards that are banned and cannot be included for decks to be legal in that format. This extends to alternate prints of a given card; many cards had Promotional card previews or reprints, and these carbon-copies are always disallowed automatically as well.

The first X-List was created by Decipher on 25 March 2003 following the release of Battle of Helm's Deep due to the excessive use of the same repeated cards from Fellowship Block even after the release of The Two Towers. The cards on this list were prohibited from being played in decks because they were deemed by Decipher to be over-powered, under-costed, or lacking cultural enforcement. The X-list underwent a regular review by the DGMA every three months (March 31, June 30, September 30, December 31). Cards were added and removed to the list as warranted.

After the introduction of set rotation on 25 March 2005 when Black Rider cards became tournament legal and Expanded Format was created as an official format by Decipher, the Expanded format X- and R-Lists were also created. The cards that were on the Standard Format Exclusion list were voted upon by players, master players and Decipher playtesters for inclusion on either the initial Expanded Format X- or R-List. The results were announced on March 22, 2005.
