Topic: Definition of "Standard" MTG deck

Would it be possible to remove the upper limit from the check for Standard format in MTG decks? Decks larger than 70 cards are legal.

Heck, there's even a card (Battle of Wits) that makes having 200 cards in your library a win condition.  Shuffling that puppy would be a pain, but still legal.

I know many competitive players like to keep their decks at (or very near) 60 cards.  Perhaps the deck listings could put the total number of cards in parenthesis behind each deck, to let people know how many cards they contain.

E.g., Blue Green Mill (75)

Black and Blue--not just for bruises anymore.

Re: Definition of "Standard" MTG deck

I was wondering about this too.  Although most of the decks I build are around 60-70 cards, I've had decks as high as 80 that were still competitive (and in many cases, they work better because of the high number of cards).  Last I checked, the legal maximum was simply the number of cards you could shuffle unaided, so I don't see why there should be a cap on deck size.
