"Old School Magic" is a limited format only focussing on the first two years after MTG was released in 1993 - first with the Alpha and Beta core series.

This is also the format that captures the essence of Magic in the earliset days as Richard Garfield envisioned it.

The Danish Old School rules is an overall framework for the Danish Old School environment. There are several different online tournaments and physical events throughout the year.

There has always been an Old School Magic guideline (or consensus) which is the overall framework that describes how Danish Old School is understood in this group. The monthly Danish online Tron Wars tournament also follows this guideline. In the update as of October 7, 2022, there are no changes to the permanet legal sets compared to what has been the consensus the whole time.

The permanent legal sets consist of seven original sets which are:
Three core sets (Alpha, Beta and Unlimited) and "The Four Horsemen" set which are Arabian Nights, Antiquities, Legends and The Dark.

In addition, there are six other sets which are principally re-print sets:
Revised (3rd), Chronicles, 4th Edition, Foreign Black Borders, Foreign White Borders and Summer Egde Edition.These do not add additional cards to the seven original sets - but they are accepted as a permanent sets of the legal card pool and these are always played with in this Old School Magic group and is to be allowed in all tournaments and events that are arranged using this guideline.

The general reprint definition for Danish Old School in this group is still "same type and Old frame" as Alpha, Beta, Unlimited, Revised, Arabian Nights, Antiquities, Legends and The Dark sets.

In the below Guidelines, there is an addtional list of other reprint sets that have cards in the set that meet this criteria. Tournament organizers can therefore also offer the opportunity to play one or more of these - but whether you want to - is entirely up to the individual tournament organiser. For these reprint sets (with the same frame and illustration), there may therefore be variation from tournament to tournament. Of the other reprint sets listed below, CE/IE is the most often allowed set by tournament organizers.
