Card sets are grouped into blocks. Each fall, the new base set for a block is released (Iron Throne Edition, Winter Edition, etc). The base set is followed by two expansion sets (A Song of Twilight, A Reign of Kings). Each block also includes a Premium Starter, typically released in the spring. The Premium Starter contains a few new cards, plus key reprints.
Blocks are cycled out of Standard tournament play after a while. Currently, the legal blocks for Standard tournaments are Iron Throne, Winter, and Valyrian. In Classic tournaments, you can use cards from any block, including Ice & Fire and Westeros.

Iron Throne Block
|
Winter Block
- (Winter Edition)
Winter is here. Cards such as Field of Fire are more powerful than ever, but play too many and you may be doomed. The Others start making their presence felt, and those who are not careful will discover that Winter has Come.
|
Valyrian Block
- (Valyrian Edition)
See the heroes of Westeros before they became aged, maimed, or dead. Characters are viewed in the prime of their life, and woe to those who would oppose them. Valyrian Edition also introduces influence - a new resource that can be used to pay for powerful events such as Arya Stark and We Have the Princess.
