Commander Banned List Update

Reddit

The January 2013 update to the Commander Banned and Restricted list has been posted. There were no changes to the banned list, but the more important clarification explains why they posted the update during the Gatecrash Prerelease weekend:

EXTORT

With the release of Gatecrash, we'd like to clarify our stance on extort by confirming that, as always, reminder text has no effect on color identity. Extort adds no colored mana symbols to a card outside of its reminder text, and therefore is legal for play in Commander decks of any color or colors (as long as the card it appears on is otherwise legal, of course). There will be no updates to the rules in the foreseeable future that affect how extort works in Commander.

If you've been concerned about extort worry no longer. Be sure to enjoy both your Prerelease games and the Commander action that follows!
