## Site Details
REDU Format is a website dedicated to the eponymous community of the popular Retro Format with the same name. It is a historical October 2012 Retro Format, snapshotting the events of YCS Providence 2012 where Karakuri Geargia, Chaos Dragon, Dino Rabbit, Agent, and others all vied for the top spot after Wind-Up fell to the September 2012 banlist.

As a Retro Format event, please keep in mind all cards and rulings used will reflect those of the time. The game will be played using the Master Rule 2 ruleset, the September 2012 Banlist, and various relevant erratas of the time.

We have published many real-life historic Deck Lists from YCS Providence 2012, which can be found in the [Hall of Fame](https://reduformat.net/hall-of-fame) page of the website.
