Goat Format (August 2005) is the first GX-era format. It was named for the historically successful Goat Control deck. The latest sets were Flaming Eternity and The Lost Millennium. Notable additions included Rescue Cat, Brain Control, and Lightning Vortex, while Confiscation and The Forceful Sentry were Forbidden, and Delinquent Duo and Graceful Charity moved from Forbidden to Limited.
