FOUR HORSEMEN TOURNAMENT #25 OVERVIEW 

​​

The Four Horsemen (4HM) Old School Magic format is focused on the original 1993/1994 expansions sets of Magic the Gathering including: Arabian Nights, Antiquities, Legends & The Dark. In this format, only cards from these expansions plus the five basic lands and dual lands from the baseline ABU sets, and the 93/94 promo cards (Arena, Nalathni Dragon, and Sewers of Estark) can be utilized. The only cards from Alpha, Beta, or Unlimited (ABU) allowed in 4HM are Basic Lands & Dual Lands. This format structure is intentionally designed to allow the emergence of other cards that rarely ever see any play in any other Old School Magic format.
