Regulations
Last Update: May 20th, 2025
An official event of Force of Will applies one
of the following regulations that the Event Organizer chooses. Players must
abide by that regulation in the event.
For details, see also the floor rules.
Formats are rules that
dictate how a deck must be constructed in events. Events of Force of Will are one of two types: Constructed or Limited.
Constructed formats
require players to bring decks, and starting cards (and a sideboard if the event allows) that follow
all constructing deck rules.
Wanderer is the
current format of Force of Will.
In Wanderer, all cards
from the Grimm Cluster onwards are permitted, as long as they belong to a set
or they are a reprint of a card that belongs to a set. However, certain cards may be banned or combination banned in this format.
l Banned:
Players may not use any copies of banned
cards.
l Combination Banned:
Players may not use copies of each
combination banned pair (specific pairs of cards) simultaneously between their
decks, starting cards, and sideboard.

This format is based on cluster rotation. Hero Cluster onwards, in Paradox players may use
only cards from the last three clusters released and the latest Masterpiece
collection released. Cards in Memory Collection sets cannot be used unless they belong to a set of the
last three clusters or they are a reprint
of a card that belongs to a set of the last three clusters. However, certain cards may be banned or combination banned in this format.
l Banned:
Players may not use any copies of banned
cards.
l Combination Banned:
Players may not use copies of each
combination banned pair (specific pairs of cards) simultaneously between their
decks, starting cards, and sideboard.

Players may use only
cards from a specific cluster that an Event Organizer chose.

from all released sets and non-sets to build their decks. Origin format may be
played in two different modes:
1.
Valhalla: A format with Lifebreak.
2.
Bifrost: A format without Lifebreak.
Arcana Battle
Colosseum is a format for two or more players.
In Arcana Battle
Colosseum, all cards from the Grimm Cluster onwards are permitted, as long as
they belong to a set or they are a reprint of a card that belongs to a set. However, certain cards may be
banned in this format.
l Banned:

cards.

Limited Format is events where players construct their decks, starting
cards, and sideboard with the cards from unopened
booster packs and cards provided by Event Organizers in the
event.
Limited formats differ
from the normal deck constructing rules and the required number of cards. In Sealed
or Draft formats, each player must use cards with the following rules;
l Main deck: 20 or more cards
l Magic stone deck: 8 or more cards
l Starting cards: 1 or more basic rulers
Players may have more
than four copies of a card with the same name in their decks.
The sealed is a
limited format in which players construct decks with the cards in the booster
packs they gain in an event.
Each player receives a
predetermined number of unopened booster packs.
Each player then opens
their given packs and constructs decks with the cards in those packs and any
other cards provided by the Event Organizer.
The draft is a limited
format in which players are divided into groups and construct decks with the
cards in each player picked from the booster packs the group gains in an event.
Divide players into
groups of 4-8, called pods. Each pod sits in a circle around a table. Then each
player receives a set number of unopened booster packs.
Then, repeat the
following process until all packs in the draft are opened.
1.
Each player
opens only one pack they are given. If a player opens the pack containing a
ruler with a J-ruler side or other double-sided card, they must reveal that
card to all players in the pod.
2.
Each player
picks a card from the packs they’ve opened and puts it face down in front of
themselves. They then pass the remaining cards from the pack to the player to
their left in the circle. They then receive the cards passed from the player to
their right in the circle, pick and put a card from them face down similarly,
and pass the remaining cards to the player to their left. Repeat these
processes until no cards remain to be passed to players.
When passing cards to
the next player, pods should alternate. They should pass to the left for the
entirety of the first booster pack, as detailed above. For the second, fourth,
sixth, etc., pass to the opposite (right) direction instead.
When all packs have
been opened and no cards remain to be passed around, each player constructs
decks with the cards put in front of themselves and any other cards provided by
the Event Organizer.
