What is Pilot? Pilot is an MTG format similar to Commander. Each player builds an 80 card deck around a Pilot (creature) and a Rig (vehicle or mount). Starting life total is 40, and commander damage is dealt only by Rigs and only when crewed/saddled by your Pilot 🧵

Go find Dork and play some Pilot!

GOOD MORNING MAGIC!

MagicCon Chicago is coming up FAST!

And I’m BEYOND delighted to announce that on Sunday 2/23 I’ll be hosting a @PilotMTG Play Area in Creator Central!

I can’t WAIT to meet and jam games with y’all!

Below is my schedule for the Con! 🖤

@Dork4Short You mean the 78? 😉

[Pilot - The Vehicle Format @PilotMTG]

Yeah, that'd be crazy.

[Magic Data Science @mtg_ds]

Does Saddle imply that this dog is suitable for riding?

Would be funny if Saddle required exactsies -- i.e. if you tapped something with power 3 to saddle District Mascot, it just wouldn't work.

This list will not be finalized until after Aetherdrift is fully shown and will have no impact on existing decks. We're also looking at retroactively adding old cards to the list.

UPCOMING CHANGES ANNOUNCEMENT

With previews for Aetherdrift kicking off, the Pilot team has been discussing adding an exception list to Pilot/Rig legality. This list will allow pairs that do not fit the power=crew restriction to be used together for the sake of fun and flavor.

@DragonJack04 @Dork4Short Stay tuned.

I'm playing live on the first ever Pilot stream on arpeggiotheswansong on the purple app. Come check it out!

[Pilot - The Vehicle Format @PilotMTG]

@ScottKersey_Art Yes! Anything that specifies your commander or color identity refers to your Pilot and your Rig

[Pilot - The Vehicle Format @PilotMTG]

@fennicfox001 There are a few who can crew it
