Standard Format Rotation Announced for April, Expanded Remains Neglected

[JustInBasil]

As expected, TPCi has announced all cards with regulation mark “E” will rotate out of the Standard format on April 5th, 2024. They won’t be legal for tournament play.
This means we’ll lose cards from March 2021’s Battle Styles through November 2021’s Fusion Strike. You can see a list of important cards we’ll lose on JustInBasil.

Good

All the VMAX card will finally rotate, also known as "RIP bozos".

Lol it's so funny you pretend to be a reliable source and openly mock us for having withheld the info for 2 months. You suck. Your loyalty is to us, not TPCi

There'll be a few around, notably Regieleki and Kyurem. Not many others, and neither of those have seen much play lately, but still

It’s going to be a big shakeup with battle vip pass going out. I expect charizard ex to keep dominating after rotation.

Good thing EU championship ends before the rotation, I’ll be able to play my deck in those.

Also rip fusion mew, I’ll miss you.

What part of this, exactly, is mocking you? We can speculate all we want, but we can't post that "Rotation is on this date" until we actually know.

I won't miss Path to the Peak, it's always annoying to see played down because it just denies options like Lumineon and Greninja. Every deck I've played has primary cards that hate it.

My bad, got too excited too quickly. Notably there's Arceus VSTAR, Lugia VSTAR, Lost Zone of course and a few other cards that never should have been printed.

Those are VSTAR and not VMAX

lmao so first I said "VMAX" as a shorthand for "VMAX + VSTAR", then I corrected myself and it turned out I was almost right the first time.
Should have said "V Pokemon" from the beginning and be confidently wrong.

Not sure if you're trolling but those are vstar pokemon... lost zone box does get hit by a nerf as you won't be able to get greninja or Cram without using a nest ball

EUIC start right with the rotation

Please don't delete this. You deserve to live in infamy.

Expanded is dead lop

All the VMAX card will finally rotate, also known as "RIP bozos".

All remain VMAX cards are supporter Pokémon or 2nd Attacker (i.e. Regieleki VMAX).

 

[runjaimerun]

importantly, they included the following in this year's rotation announcement!! no more dangerous misinformation being spread about multiple regulation marks rotating at once. there was a professor locally that was telling new players that E and F were rotating together and they shouldn't even bother with building any decks with those cards in them.
