Can you use old artwork in MTG Standard?
Nope, doesn't work like that. If the card itself isn't in a Standard-legal set, its old artsy version ain't gonna fly. It’s gotta be reprinted in one of the sets that are currently in Standard.

Gotta say, using old artwork in my Standard decks is my secret joy. There’s something epic about dropping an ancient-looking card on the table and watching your opponent's face. Plus, it's totally legal as long as the card is Standard-legal!
Absolutely! In MTG, as long as the card with the old artwork is a reprint of a card that's currently legal in Standard format, you can totally use it. For example, if Lightning Bolt gets reprinted in a current Standard set, your old-school Lightning Bolt is fair game. It's all about the card name and its current Standard legality, not the artwork. So, dig through those collections and give your deck some vintage flair!
