Old Frame is played with contemporary Magic: the Gathering in-game rules.

To make the format more accessible, we recommend tournament organizers to allow the use of not just original versions but all regular-sized reprints done by Wizards of the Coast, including those that were not originally tournament-legal (Collectors’ Edition, International Edition and gold-bordered Pro Tour and World Championship cards) and Modern frame ones.

The format has its own banned and restricted list, which tries to be as similar as possible to what Vintage was before Mirrodin was printed.
