The Budget Paper Format
Quartermaster Magic is a budget Magic: The Gathering format designed specifically for paper play. Each season refreshes with the release of a new standard set. During the week before a new season begins, card prices are monitored daily. Any card with an average price of $0.50 or less becomes legal for the upcoming season.
