The updated DCI Floor Rules for DDM have been added to the DCI downloads page:
http://wizards.com/default.asp?x=dci/doccenter/home


Dragondown Grotto, Thieves Quarter, and Teleport Temple have been dropped from the list of legal maps, and Evermelt has been added.

Oddly, the set rotation section still shows that we'll be receiving the Unhallowed updated cards before Night Below, although it's most likely a mistake in the floor rules given the previous announcement of when the updated cards would be available.

It's also kind of odd that they recommend using Unhallowed, Night Below, and Desert of Desolation for 200 pt Limited events (in addition to the 2.0 sets), given that the Floor Rules are for using the 2.0 rules and those sets don't include 2.0 cards in the boosters.

Thanks LCS.Â

I'm not surprised at the 3 maps that were dropped, although I really liked the Teleport Temple.Â

I'm not sure why they are still getting the Unhallowed / Night Below sets mixed up.  Oh well.Â

Those are the three I was certain would be removed, but I added Drow Enclave as there doesn't seem to be summoning spells anymore. Maybe they will release a new wording for how it works.  Oh and I thought the pit maps might get the axe as they seem a lot stronger.   I guess they want to highlight the pit features though.

Dragondown and Thieves quarter are pretty self explanatory.
Teleport temple is pretty nuts under 2.0 rules thanks to shifts and openened up charge movement. I can understand why it was removed.

Looking for someone to cosponser a midwest DDM event. let me know if your interested!

Wow, nothing but a brief mention of Extreme/Epic play.

The Drider Sorcerer can be played once again in Vintage.

3 maps have been removed and 4 new ones, 1 from the Icons, and 3 from the new Starter.

Sounds interesting.

Could you imagine summoning as-is with the new rules? Anybody could target the summoner, no blockers, all the summons would vanish and the attacker would gain all of those VPs... ugh.

I'd hope with the new targetting rules that summons count for 0VPs, but still vanish when the summoner dies.
