It's quite similar to the Ancient format. Do we need yet another format?
Kinda reminds me of the old Extended, except without Duals.
I doubt it is a coincidence that this topic was started right after another was posted in the "Casual section" here:
Here are the differences in the two Banned lists, along with the EC format allowing the Portal sets (which I kind of don't agree with them on).
Middle School bans:
Dark Ritual
Imperial Seal
Lion’s Eye Diamond
Tinker
Yawgmoth’s Bargain
Premodern bans:
Earthcraft
Entomb
Force of Will
Frantic Search
Grim Monolith
Mystical Tutor
Necropotence
Show and Tell
Tendrils of Agony
Time Spiral
Worldgorger Dragon

I came across Premodern after reading the article about 'Middle school' from themanadrain.com link. Actually i like them both. However i prefer to have one major format instead of two smaller ones. I have cross posted on reddit.com/mtglegacy and gotten quite a few replies there.

In the end i do not mind either Premodern or Middle School. Was hoping it to garner more players as Vintage and Legacy has gotten very stale.
Instead of another almost-but-not-exactly eternal format with an arbitrary cutoff point that's almost-but-not-exactly Modern's, I propose a format I like to call "Unreserved": it's Legacy minus any of the cards on the Reserved List.
(I don't claim this as a unique invention of mine, surely this has already been thought of by others.)
This is probably my favorite format now ahead of Vintage/ Legacy. Feels so different and interactive. Most of all its nostalgic and cheap format.
