Back way when, Wizards didn't really make sure that there were ENOUGH playable limited cards in the common slots for sets (no one was playing much limited before the inception of the Pro Tour, around the release of Ice Age ), so horribly unplayable cards like Snowfall and Balduvian Shaman glutted the common slots of packs - and commons are where most of the meat of your limited cardpool comes from
For example a match with no gusting and no switching would be noGUSW, while a match restricted to only Basic non-ex Pokemon would be noEXS1S2
Brainstorm got rather better
I dont expect the cards be miscut like that all the way in the future.
We can use several resources that speed up this process, such as this Trainer Stadium , Dimension Valley PHF 93, which discounts the cost of your Psychic Pokmon's attacks by one colorless energy card, or even Gardevoir DEX 109, which, with its ability, doubles one basic Psychic energy card so you can attack with Gengar GEN 35
