I was just referring to it as “Lorcana Light” but all of the names you mentioned seem more fun! Before I could acquire any real cards I designed a few common-uncommon only decks, my favorite being “Ruby Ramp-fire”: use Sapphire’s ramp cards and big 3 quest 6 and 7 drops supported by Dragon Fire and the lore drain cards (Tangled, Aladdin Street Rat, Ruby Rapunzel). Just good, fair interactions!
Great idea for a format! It would be very family friendly too, which is a plus. An idea that came to mind: while up to 4 commons could be put into a deck, a max of 3 uncommons could be an interesting restriction to include. You could max out on commons for consistency, or deal with some variance if you want to load up on uncommons. Just an idea!
Great idea- I would be down for this at my local and it would allow me to explore out of my comfort zone of Amethyst/Steel. Plus it gives me something to do with my Bulks 😅
I'm surprised Sapphire didn't make a sample deck. It has most of the ramp tools (One Jump, Detective Mickey, Gramma Tala) plus a pair of 3-Lore characters (Chief Tui & Mufasa) and Eye of the Fates. Looking at the options Amethyst-Sapphire or Emerald-Sapphire seem like great options to me that still have lots of the full-constructed tools
I really don't like Poorcana for different reasons. The obvious one is the connotation of the word poor, but there is another more important, I think. When you play Commander, you are playing "Magic Commander" . In Flesh and Blood you have "Flesh And blood Commoner", for example (I love the word Commoner BTW) but with Poorcana you would have "Lorcana Poorcana" that sounds extremely weird. It is not that you are playing a different game that is called Poorcana, but you are playing a "format" of the game, and it should be used like a "surname" like "Lorcana Light" or "Lorcana Commoner" or "Lorcana Base" or whatever
I HEARD WHAT YOU SAID
oh no.
Nice deck examples!!
I love a common/uncommon format, and I would like to see it played from time to time at local events to shake things up
I've got 2 decks ready to go to show people, it's very fun!
Hey, and there's the video! Great to see it come up in my recommendations.
Hope you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching :)

Definitely worth testing!

This is a good format especially with the difficulty with getting cards currently.

That's a great shout! There's honestly a dozen decks you could build, it's a gun challenge :)
Defintely like calling it street rat format in honor of Aladdin
It's a cool name!
Yes.. a real Cinderella tale.. rags to riches
Are you allowed to have more than 2 color types in a deck?
Not currently
It’s called Street Rat, FYI.
Did you not listen to the video?
Ogod he said 401 games lol know that store oh to well lol
Street Rat FTW lol
lol Poor-cana

That's a fair point tbh
Missed opportunity to call the format "Steet Rat". Way better then Poorcana.
It's all subjective, whatever it's called, it's fun!
Ugh. It makes me sick that commander is the largest format in mtg, it should have died on the vine. I think poorcana could be very interesting 😊
