I'm sure this has been covered in the past but time for a fresh look. Mine is limited, draft in particular. Let's me believe the creativity has not been lost in MtG.

Legacy. Because its brutal, unrelenting spike-ness. Just costs so much and fewer LGS support it.

Draft or sealed. Kinda levels the playing field. Except for that op mythic

Limited formats and EDH are my favs, and then a tie between standard and modern, then legacy (due to cost)

Good times... I totally wanna play my {Brion Stoutarm} EDH deck now :(

I feel like I'm on a date with the imtg app because of all these "what's your favorite" topics as of late hahah.

Mine is standard just because I just got back into Magic and that's what's the most readily available to me.

Standard. I Love the challenge of designing new decks that will actually be competetive. This also makes it easy slap creativity in the faces of those who think standard is just net decking, which it's stupid just how many people believe that.

ISD/DKA/AVR was a dud. I'm hoping for RtR.

Standard. Why? Because I have not the time or money to get into modern at the moment.

What do I like about standard? It's always changing so you have practice in different times. It's fun to try to make my own deck out of a limited card pool, yet still I have enough options to choose from to satisfy my hunger for new discoveries and deck ideas.

I'm surprised nobody has said Casual... Am I unusual in liking it?

Still, Limited is my favorite for sure. I make it into a secondary poker night.

Not at all, but I think it gets looked over as a format since its mostly just playing for fun.

I personally like draft, EDH, casual, and sealed.

Definitely good ol' table top casual.  I like being able to do whatever with my deck and just have a little fun without restrictions

Vintage Casual Multiplayer. Outside of prereleases it's all I play.

Yea I am a Legacy/Vintage Casual player through and through.  Why? Cuz I have old cards and I love mixing the old with the new.

After October I'm gonna start pushing the card shops I go to to start running modern tourneys so I can still use my {birthing pod}

I'm sure they would if you get enough people willing to pay and play.

Too many people love that card to let it go just like that plus nothing is ever going on on a Monday or Saturday afternoon so I say it'd probably be one of those days
