Reset

From MWiki

Reset is when the card pool is purposely reduced by the game manufacturer for the purpose of lowering the power level of the environment, for allowing new creative explorations with the card pool, and for making it easier for new players to join the game. Resets occur periodically – typically every two to three years.

Resets are accompanied with the printing of a base set. Before the reset the manufacturer examines the current card pool and selects cards from it that will be reprinted in the new base set with a bug. Additionally, once a reset is planned the manufacturer frequently bugs select cards in the expansion before the base set. All cards with the appropriate bug are considered legal for the new environment created by the reset.

Warlord has had three resets resulting in three base sets: Campaign Edition in 2004, Epic Edition in 2006, and 4th Edition in 2008.
